My post looks awful after Juliana's, the worst kind of xpost. I'm so sorry sweetie! Maybe your computer will be ok. Mine wasn't in an accident, but it came to Alaska wrapped in a single layer of bubble wrap that didn't even cover all of it and tossed in with the rest of my stuff (literally, apparently), and it still made it ok. I mean, it was crap, but no worse crap than when the $%^&*( movers packed it.
I couldn't believe it the first twenty times you told us, but it's starting to sink in now.

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.

juliana,
anything you find you need when you get out there, you just holler. Boxes will come your way. I promise.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Thank you, everyone. Y'all rock. I know I keep saying that, but this has truly been a sanctuary in some damn dark times. Oy.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
juliana - anything you need, let us know. It'll get there somehow.

Oh argh, juliana. I am so sorry. But as everyone else said, whatever you need, just let us know.
And it IS NOT an omen. Not, not, not.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Dammit, juliana, the universe needs to let up already!

He's currently sitting somewhere around the Colorado/Utah border
That would probably be I-70. The roads are clear through the mountains and into the West Desert. I don't know how things stand in Nevada, but the leg through Utah should be easy once your stuff's on the road again.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
I meant to come here sooner to squee, but the gods were against me but THANK YOU brenda m, oh bestest Secret Santa! I got a very adorable santa sock monkey (monkey!), nummy chocolate, and the best picture holder for my desk EVAH. (Seriously. Most of those cute ones with the wires that hold up your pictures fall right over for me or drop their pictures but this one holds tons and is sassy AND had a puppet Angel and a smooshed face lion picture pre-inserted. It is all manner of fabulous.) Thank you thank you thank you!

Man, juliana, all I have to say on your behalf is !!!!!!!
anything you find you need when you get out there, you just holler. Boxes will come your way. I promise.
Also, what msbelle said.
In better news, I arrived to find a notice for a package. (We'll ignore pondering why the Postal People left another package in my porch and made me go pick up the other one.) Anyway it was homemade preserves: Tangerine-Vanilla Marmalade, Mango and Red Pepper Chutney, and Carmelized Red Onion Relish from a mystery secret santa in Brooklyn, so I knew it had to be Jessica. I want to just open them up and devour them now. Thanks Jess!
