'Just Rewards (2)'
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.
I just got a Christmas card from SailAweigh. Thanks! It's very pretty, with cool stamp applique thingies on it.
I'd discuss my year, but there's still one day left for life to go terribly wrong or for the Sugar Daddy of my dreams to take me away to his castle with a ginormous library, so I think I'll hold off until Sunday.
Oh! Me, too. Thanks, Sail! (Also Kristin and any other 'istas who sent cards that I don't remember at 2 am)
Toto got a package from a secret santa! Thank you so much. There are a bunch of him wearing is santa hat here: [link] Also, there are some cute pictures of Bastet under the Christmas tree.
Aw, Bastet is the cutest! Toto is the cutest! Val is the cutest! Emily is the cutest!
I'm overwhelmed with all the cute.
OK, those are some happy-making pictures, VW. Bastet and Toto are cracking me up. The dog's all "Doood! Soft bed and hat and people crooning my name! Wheeeeeeee!" and the cat's all "ahhhhhhhhhh, sunlight and the smell of pine. Is there any Dom Perignon?"
Yeah, I really love those pictures. It's kind of funny, but the pet stuff is often my favorite part of Christmas.
Ever since I got Toto (six years ago now! Wow! Time flies!), he's been treated like a member of the family. He (and now my parents' dog and my bro and SIL's tow cats) has a stocking and get spoiled with MANY presents at Christmas. He's so funny. We start off Christmas morning with the dogs opening their stockings (they get to go first, 'cause they're the youngest). From there on out, Toto thinks every present is for him. As a matter of fact, Emily got a couple of boxes of presents today, and Toto was all about trying to get at them to open them. It's hysterical.
So happy. Got Mom's gift...autographed "The Wire" companion book, with photos of the gorgeous McNulty, Stringer, and Detective Kima.
My SS gift(s) have been sent off! My revel in my virtue and my joy in my cleverness at picking them out is only balanced out by my guilt at the lateness.
Theo, mine isn't going out until Monday. Kara has now stolen two parts of it. If I don't find them by the time the post office opens on Monday, I'll replace them with something else. It's very frustrating. I haven't found them anywhere, but I'm cleaning like a crazy woman today, so I'm hoping they'll show up.
Whoo! I got Santa'd even though I didn't sign up!
The lovely and kindly Katerina Bee sent me a beautiful sachet with a perfectly spherical lapis bead sewed to it; she says that lapis is good for migraines. I can't place the sachet scent, but it's lovely and light.
And there was a nice friendly letter with it. Thanks so much, Katerina.
