Whee! I am home from the great snowy north and found in my mail stacks an envelope from C. Kritsanta. Precious turtle earrings and necklace were found inside. So sweet. Thank you C. whoever you may be.
Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

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.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Er, have I completely humiliated myself?
Why yes, I have! Well, not quite. But I had skipped right past the handle to the name. Sparky! Lovely necklace, pretty ornament, thank you very much, will go back and fix original post.

Speaking of belated thank-you cards, I have yet to write a single one for Christmas. I should probably get on that, huh.
Um, thank you cards? Eek!

Katie! You're welcome! I'm glad you liked the necklace! I almost liked the ribbon as much as the glass, myself, so I have an extra length of it.
I cannot believe how long it took to get to you! They didn't even try to deliver until the 27th!
I am wondering which Beth sent Kate her gift.
(We share a name and a profession -- very co-inky-dink!)

Resolution for 2005 - I will never, ever, ever, color my hair myself again. Never. Ever. Really.

I learned this lesson the hard way on my 16th birthday, Toddson. Angela on My So-Called Life had the red hair. It was a thing. There are pictures. Shudder.

Because books.
Nonian, I'm so glad you liked it! And I'm glad you're home safe, too. I'm still sorry it was late, though -- next time I have to pay more attention to going-out-of-town announcements.

I've so been in that place before. It was NOT pretty.

See, I've never been in that place. I've been in "I will never, ever, ever go to a salon to get my hair colored again." place, however.
(I've never had a happy salon color experience.)

Well, I'd been reading about so many Buffistas coloring their hair, and the pictures always looked so pretty. And it was after Christmas and I had a week before I had to go back to work and there was this dye ... said it'd wash out in 6 to 12 shampoos. Two weeks later ... it's still there. It's been described as mauve, burgundy (where it's dark), and pink (where it's light).
Nope. Never again.
