I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm bored, and I don't want to do my time sheets.
Please to answer:
a) What do people want for Christmas this year?
b) What is your favorite present that you bought for someone else?
a) I already know that Mom got me the tempurpedic pillows I have wanted for quite a while, plus Nicole got me the Muppet show and Sparky1 got me a radical militant librarian t-shirt, so most of what I wanted I've already gotten. The other thing I really want is an ipod alarm clock, but I think I'll need to get myself that one, since Mom got me the pillows instead.
b) I think probably the buck fifty thing I got for msbelle, or the jacket Mom picked out for herself while I was out there a couple of weeks ago.
eta:
Oooh! Me! Me!
Yay! I think we should get a manicure or pedicure too.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
a) What do people want for Christmas this year?
Angel S5 DVDs.
b) What is your favorite present that you bought for someone else?
My brother and SiL just bought their first house, and going from small apartments to a whole house, they need stuff to hang on the walls. My bro is a jazz fan, and particularly LOVES Thelonious Monk. I found this poster for him, and framed it. He got it yesterday, and called me today to tell me how -- and I quote -- "fucking awesome" it is. Yay!

Our wings are not tired.
On the bright side, I will, with luck, get to see Laura while I'm there
Yay!
a) What do people want for Christmas this year?
My kids to surprise me and pick up the house. (a girl can dream)
b) What is your favorite present that you bought for someone else?
A shirt for my son with a cow jumping over the moon saying "I got Mad Skills." He will never take it off.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
We really are a charming bunch. I'll try and find you more surly New Yorkers next time.I was led to believe you weren't such a friendly chatty bunch. I don't require surly, just would prefer that leave me alone.
Puppycat wants desperately to crawl onto the keyboard. Annoying annoying annoying. It would be cute if it weren't, you know, annoying.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
a) What do people want for Christmas this year?
Oh man. So much. I guess the easiest thing would be Jockey for Her queen size full briefs and some fleece-lined LL Bean jeans so I wouldn't have to buy these practical items for myself.
And that 2006 will be exponentially better than 2005
b) What is your favorite present that you bought for someone else?
Brigittine Monk Pecan Praline Fudge for my mom. My mom's hard to buy for (a) because she's a caretaker. She will take care of everyone's needs but her own so she doesn't give many clues about what she wants (b) I don't have enough money to buy something for her that she can't buy for herself and if I buy her something she won't buy for herself, she still won't allow herself the luxury of indulging.
We cut down two pecan trees that were in our yard because the weather here isn't consistently warm enough for them to fruit. My mother exclaimed how much she loved pecans so I wanted to get something pecan-y for her. My mom is also a devout Catholic, so getting her something that supports a religious community is a two-in-one. In her thank you note to me she congratulated me on finding an order that she and Dad didn't even know about.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
a) There's nothing my Christmas list that I'm all "Ooh, ooh, I want, I want" over. I'm sure my mother or my sister will surprise me with something.
b) The official Serenity hat I managed to get my hands on for my dad. It didn't cost me anything, so it's in addition to his other gifts, but it has a coolness factor to it.
ION, someone just called the help desk here at work.
Me: "Thank you for calling support, this is Rob."
Them: "Huh?"
Me: "You've reached the IT help desk."
Them: "Who is this?"
Me: "This is Rob in IT."
Them: "I think you have the wrong number."
Me: "Um, you called me."
Them: [click]
