I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

Reasonably sane for me or for you? For me, I could go in on 12/26 without a hitch, but Kat Perez and I have a store thing.

I'd wait until Tuesday at the latest. That means the weekend people had time to return stuff as have the weekday people. But if your parents are leaving earlier, then so be it. Go on Monday.

Also, depends on where you go.

Always Anti-fascist!

Hello, everyone! Of course, you are not here. You are off being festive, probably. Hec, if it were not to be cold and if I didn't have a Jilli-inspired fashion concept for tomorrow's "celebrations", you know what I would be wearing to them, right? It would be worth it to watch everyone freak. But me in Goth-ra-bilia handles that particular job nicely as well. Thank you, Gothic Miss Manners! I used a new product in my hair today as well, Hec, and found myself thinking "I bet Hec's mood just lifted and he doesn't know why."

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Hey, Erika! We are going to a Christmas Eve dinner, and someone I really dislike will be there so I want to look great, if that makes sense. But we are broke and I am a bit too fat for any of my old fancy clothes, so not going to be too festive tonight.

Wrod, Robin, totally. It like, wounds Stepmonster physically when I look like something. Also, she really hates the Gothy clothes. I love the Gothy clothes almost as much as I love making her feel ugly and stuck in the eighties, so that is like two great tastes that taste great together. (She made me feel ugly as a teenager and as my recovering friends would say I have an Issue with that, so Morticia junior lives. )

All is well that ends in pizza.

I just wanted gas. I didn't know there'd be a seasonal run on gas.

I personally filled up my tank because I'm driving to my sister's tomorrow for a few hours. Also because we have below zero temps, and it might be easier to get my corpse from my car after some idiot runs me off the road and into a snowbank...

So I guess it's likely in California the former being a little closer to what prompted the lines. People going visiting, because it's not only a Friday, but Christmas eve.

I recall one Christmas we drove down Ventura almost to Sepulveda looking for a Ralphs someone claimed to have seen open. Considering we started out in Woodland Hills, that was a bit of a drive.

I didn't know LA actually closed up on Christmas. I had that assumption smack me upside the head.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

The Existence of a "Huggy Jesus Doll" is probably inevitable

However, the resemblence to Charles Manson is a bit disturbing

Merry Christmas?

Delightful, but random, the christmas carol truck and its attendant parade just went by our house.

It's very very merry.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I've never heard of that before, Kat. It sounds merry indeed.

Apparently it's been going on in our neighborhood for 21 years. But we never noticed it until now.

WEIRD.

Yet Merry.
