Fuck. What a way to start a new year, finding out about Gus. But I guess I'll blame that on 2006. Damn you, 2006!
Mine was pretty good. Didn't do quite as much as I'd hoped, in some ways (no travel off the NA continent, didn't apply to grad school, etc), but things keep on keepin' on, for me. Good times seeing lots of you, and hopes to see more of some of you in 2007. Hopes to get my act together a bit, too, and do some of hte things I didn't get around to this year. And continue some of the good things.
USPS is on my list. They promised me delivery last Thursday or Friday. Wah. I really hope they make it today for my dear Santee.
Hate to deliver bad news, Laura:
NO REGULAR MAIL DELIVERY OR RETAIL SERVICE ON TUESDAY, JANUARY 2
Federal agencies will honor the memory of former President Ford
WASHINGTON, DC – There will be no regular mail delivery or retail services at Post Offices on Tuesday, Jan. 2, 2007, as the Postal Service is closing to observe the national day of mourning for President Gerald R. Ford. The decision follows an Executive Order issued by President Bush that independent federal agencies close as a mark of respect for the former president who died Dec. 26. Express Mail deliveries will be made on Jan. 2. Regular retail and delivery service will resume Wednesday, Jan. 3.

eta: then I should be able to go home and not work, right?
I forgot to post the other day that I received a beautiful teacup ornament in the mail from Ginger. I love it!
How could I see a teacup ornament and not buy you one?

Some people will do anything to get a day off...

Just want to apologize once again to my Santee... it will probably be next week before I can get your gift out in the mail. Argh. I'm sorry.
Argh. I'm sorry.
You....slacker. I think you just gave Santa kidney stones.
And I just punched him in the kidneys, because I am mailing mine out tomorrow. You're not alone in slackerdom, Kate.
Apologies to my Santee. Again.
