Goodbye and Good Riddance 2006: You're ON THE LIST!!!  

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 2006? Don't think we've forgotten about you.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

I've mostly had people I hadn't interacted with a lot, but it was fun getting to know someone else a little better, and I hope I didn't totally suck on my guesses. Thank goodness for Deena's fine work with the Buffista database, or I would have been toast.

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

I've drawn people that I didn't know well, but I thread sucked and cyber stalked them and the questionaires they filled out were very helpful. So far, they've seemed happy with the gifts.

still waiting...

::hugs quester hard::

Happy? Over the moon! I use my incredibly awesome cigarette case every day, and adore it! All of the presents were wonderful.

So glad you loved it AmyLiz!

Putting together presents with a particular person in mind is a special pleasure of mine. I like listening and picking up on little things all year and then finding stuff that relates to that special person. Nothing makes me happier than when I do this and they love it.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Hey, libkitty, I'm glad the package got to you! I had fun putting it together, once I finally had time to concentrate on it. As for the stamps, I really wanted to get you one with a firefly, but I couldn't find one anywhere I looked, so I finally settled on the penguin as an acceptable, Buffistariffic substitute. Glad you liked it!

Hey Beej, I'm catching up after my trip, and I saw your post in Beep Me about Bartleby eating glass -- is he okay??

Compassionately intolerant

Hey Kate.

The little idiot is okay. There were about 4 days of...um...evidence...that his upper intestine was really irritated...and actual glass reappeared...but he weathered it with aplomb. I, on the other hand, was pretty freaked.

Canned pumpkin to the rescue, once again.

Thanks so much for asking...it's kind of you to be concerned.

He's asleep right now...curled up in a donut in his doggie bed beside me. Sigh. I seriously never thought I could love anything/one so much in all my life.

Oh, man, I'm so glad he's all right! I was really worried when I read your post. Poor little guy.
