But sadly this means you won't be just up the street the next time I visit my brother.
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!
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.

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.
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...
::hugs Jessica::
I think you get a pass, sweetie.
Uh, yeah. Jessica definitely gets a pass.
I've got one more thing for Secret Santa-ing, and then it's off. Phew.
I want to do Secret Santa one year. My problem is usually not the shopping for the gift (I see shit I want to get for y'all all the time), it's the sticking it in the mail thing I have trouble with.
As for 2007? I don't even know what. I started the year down two close friends to one here. Lost my grandfather, quickly followed by my grandmother and then my uncle. Mr. Jane's teenage cousin committed suicide. I've become disillusioned with my do-gooder job, and that's just personal stuff.
On the other hand, I've made new friends-better friends. I've taken dream vacations and taken some time to really figure out who and what I am. I'm much happier, I think, than I was this time last year.
2007 consisted of:
A mixed bag. I have very low expectations for 2008 (see first bullet above), so maybe it'll surprise me.
You're welcome, babe. Glad you liked it! Because one of the things about having Kay Howard as a role model is that you don't learn to do cute things with people's Christmas gifts or carve ornaments out of soap and junk like that, so I'm always afraid my SS's get sort of cheated.

Not true.
