Goodbye and Good Riddance 2004: Well, I Wasn't Expecting That.  

Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Oh, and 2004? Don't think we've forgotten about you.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Heh. Connie, no crit from me of the USPS; all the ginger cake I sent this last batch got there quite quickly.

Speaking of which, I have not forgotten or reneged on my second-round baking - mostly cpbdb cookies - but I didn't want to do it while I was encrusted with hideous flu-like germs.

erika, precisely. ""Dear (blank), here are some lovely ebola bars! With chocolate chips!"

Not so much.

I am borrowing a computer during my travels to say:

libkitty rocks!

I have a new autographed calendar from Juneau with pictures that make me ache for a little vacation time, and a new hand knit scarf that I've now worn for friends and relatives in three states.

Thanks so much!

Actually, I think being packed and shipped would kill a rhinovirus, but the thought is not of the appetizing.

Not. After the Kikwit outbreak - SEVEN WEEKS after the Kikwit outbrak - they found healthy Ebola virus that had apparently been shed by dying patients thriving on aluminum bredframes from the hospital.

They're less threatening in plush form.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I totally need to get the plush yeast microbe for my brother the professional brewmaster.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Those dolls are awesome.

I just tracked my package on the USPS website, and all it says is that it was accepted for shipping in Hartford--a week ago. Should I be worried that there's no newer information? Anyway, o secret giftee, it may be a while.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

GIANT MICROBES!

I love those things. The common cold is just so damn cute.
