Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
At my job, we are still (since yesterday) getting much hilarity out of the emails sent by the Holiday Party Committee. I swear, I've never laughed so hard over font choice in an email.
OK, this is random -- my boss is Facebook friends with a guy with my mother's maiden name. I wonder if we're related! Then I had to ask my boss who he was, thereby revealing my work time Facebook usage...

At my Cousin Philip's wedding we found out that the bride's Stepfather not only has the same last name but is from the same part of Illinois as our Grandmother's family. We are all profoundly grateful it is her Stepfather.

Seriously.
I think we're buying a live tree to plant this year. We won't actually be here for Christmas, so I dunno. But I think so.
I am Sue's opposite, though. I have no ornaments. We bought some awesome ones painted by our Navajo buddy; sand painted weaving combs and patterned balls. But we keep giving them away as gifts, so we're out again.
So I have one giant and gorgeous handmade one that I got in an ornament exchange (even though I didn't bring an ornament as I was an impromptu guest) and a set of wedding basket ones. But that's all.
I don't have any lights, either.
I need to send you some ornaments, Liese.
I also have too many lights. At one point, I had enough multi-coloured mini lights for my tree, as well as a white set, but I gave the multi sets to my mom and dad.
Did I mention that I also regularly buy ornaments for my parent's tree. It's a sickness!
This reminds me that I should get a bigger box for my ornaments, so I can get more ornaments! The question there is, if I wait until after Christmas, will the storage items go on sale, or will I forget to do it? Hmmm.
