You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

no holiday debt is my motto this year. I usually do pretty well, but the finance lines at Best Buy with people getting ginormous tvs was so depressing, I swore to myself to be extra careful this year.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think I saw something about a free upgrade to 2 day shipping. Don't see the point, really, since they shipped really fast (and free--did we mention the free?) anyway.

Christmas presents? Fuck. I don't want to think about them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously, if you were a 30ish married couple, would you think steak was a weird present or an awesome one?

(This is just the first idea I've had for anyone, so I want to run with it....)

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Seriously, if you were a 30ish married couple, would you think steak was a weird present or an awesome one?

Sure. Free food!

Dude, I'm all about the raw, quality meat.

And the red fingernails, but that's not really a couple present. Well...

Okay, today is slipping through my fingers. Must take a firmer grasp on it.

I blew my shoe budget for the year this summer. And by "blew" I mean I might have gone temporarily insane with the unemployed retail therapy.

It's okay. I can wait. January will be here before I know it.

I would like steak!

Thanks, y'all! The steak thing seems like a "cashmere socks" type present, but it's good to hear that other people would like it.

I haven't done a damn thing at work today. I've read a lot of mail (electronic and otherwise), but that's about it. And I'm leaving shortly, because who cares.

I also like cashmere socks.
