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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

You got an invite to her high school graduation, right?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Eeeeeeee!!! Vortex is the best Sekrit Santa ever, I don't care that she was late!

Back in December, I literally thought, "Damn, it would be really great if I got The Best American Science Writing 2004 for a Sekrit Santa gift."

AND I DID OMG YAY.

Plus a book of scary stories written by women! Margaret Atwood, Shirley Jackson, Joyce Carol Oates, Jamaica Kincaid, Flannery O'Connor...all in one book!!

And a pen!

totally has a cow

That was so worth waiting for. Thank you so much!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Sounds like something that would provide great SS for classes. Out of curiousity, which Shirley Jackson story do they use?

Hey, I know that book! (J is off to three weeks in Japan for a couple of stories, and I'm jealous, P-C).
