That's awesome. I'm glad that happened, brenda.
Dawn: I think a date should be in a real fancy restaurant, then champagne at a night club with a floor show, then ballroom dancing. Joyce: Unfortunately, we're not dating in a movie from the thirties.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2007: Heaven's Just a Funky Moose
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 2007? Don't think we've forgotten about you.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Nicely timed, Anne.

My big thing for 2007 was becoming a homeowner. In fact, I just unpacked a bunch of boxes and put stuff away. The room looks oddly empty :)

Sparky, I didn't realize you guys bought a house! (This is what happens when I take on a new job that blocks B.org, fooey.) Congratulations! But sadly this means you won't be just up the street the next time I visit my brother.

I just got the most wonderful card from Thailand. It has Santa and, um, water buffalo? I'm not sure what they are, but I just absolutely love the card, love it. Plus, Fay has the most beautiful handwriting. Thanks Fay!
Your card from Alaska is late, but should be waiting for you in Thailand when you get back.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Brenda, I'm amazed the package got there so early, but am I ever glad it did! Aren't Bissinger chocolates the best? I haven't tried the blueberry bark yet, but it did look yummy.
Also, erika rocks. I, too, managed to get a package on a day that was otherwise craptastic through and through. Thank you so very much, hon.
For those who are wondering, I received a cool silver pen, a weekly planner (in desperate need of one, actually) with a funky wrap cover that is held closed by the accompanying pen, and some gorgeous notecards with images of Van Gogh sunflowers and iris--perfect!

But I will! Because the house we just bought is just up the street from where we were! Come visit my house and my puppy!

Because books.
My Secret Santa gift is going out today! I'm so excited. I love doing Secret Santa gifts.

I wish I'd had the time and money to do one of the Seekrit Santas this year, but I just couldn't swing it. Next year, dammit.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I'd like to apologize in advance for the lateness of my Santa gift this year. I had all sorts of "buy and mail holiday gift" plans this weekend, which wound up completely derailed by the funeral. And DH's parents are coming up this weekend, so I may not have time to shop until closer to New Years...
