You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2005: the Year of the Penguin  

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 2005? Don't think we've forgotten about you.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Quester I got the package!

I'm so glad you got it! I got a message from the post office that it had been delivered.

And the timing was perfect, I haven't had such a great day. I loved opening the box and finding all the purple packages!

Best reaction I could hope for. I had fun putting it together, I hope the stuff gives you many smiles to come.

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

I just got my secret santa present, from Deb, who is an amazing and generous Secret Santa. I got a bottle of very nice tequila, a bottle of Patron's Coffee Liqueur (with TEQUILA!), a bottle of limoncello cream liqueur, some really pretty coasters, and about 5 different kinds of dark chocolate.

Thank you, SO MUCH.

Our wings are not tired.

Yum! That should help with the New Year's resolution of swearing off sobriety.

I love reading the giftee posts. All the people with Santa anxiety (btdt) should understand that the best part of the gifts is knowing that they came bundled with Buffista care. I look at little things around the house all the time and smile with the memory that it was a Buffista gift. Warms the heart it does.

Thrive to spite them

Quester -- I had a chance to look at the Cooking with Wine (actually any kind of alcohol) cookbook more right before I went to bed. With every recipe they list the correct wine to serve with it.

There are recipes for every occasion, including brunch, so I can start the day right with pancakes and omeletes with liqour in them.

I'm getting the pig!

Suzi, I'm going to assume the cd got there. Yay! Hope you enjoy it.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Yesterday, I received from some mysterious person in the Chicago area, and poster of the Simpsons parodying Georges Seurat's Un dimanche après-midi à l'Ile de la Grande Jatte.

If this was from my Buffista Seekret Santy, Thank You! It's an awesome poster. I would link to an image of it, but all I can find online is the original.

Yay! I see another on board with the concept of rejecting sobriety in 2006.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

My gift will go out today! I don't think there's any chance of it arriving before Christmas, sadly. Apologies in advance,but I hope my giftee enjoys it in the new year.
