I told the kids if they got us up before 8, I was sending their presents back.
They waited until 7:59. I gave 'em a pass for that one.
Scrappy, that is just the sweetest thing I've heard in a long time. Happy Christmas, Thursday, Chanukkah, solstice, holiday of choice, Buffistae.
Y'all rock like rocking things.
Merry Christmas!!!!!
My family called at 7 to make up for the fact that my niece and nephew can't jump on me to wake me up for Christmas as per usual. Also, I had a present with instructions to open first thing--it turned out to be a filled stocking! Sometimes my sister is really just awesome.
Wait, WTF, thunder? I thought that didn't happen here!
Merry Christmas!
I'm on the train to my sister's. I stayed out way too late last night. Am v. tired.
Seattle we are having your weather. 10 C and raining.
Merry Krimble and a Joyous Thursday to all the wonderful Buffistas. Knowing you all is a gift each and every day.
I'm already looking at store online for an artificial tree. I think mac and I will be out early to try and get a bargain on one. Unless I find a great deal with cheap shipping online. If anyone has a rec for a store or brand, let me know.
Merry Christmas/Chanukah/Solstice to everyone!!
msbelle, I got my fake tree at Michaels the day after Christmas for half-off. I found out the following year when I opened it that it had been used before it was returned (remnants of blue garland in the box), but it's a perfectly fine tree.
I'm doing laundry right now, but should be done in time to get to Dad's by 2:30 or so. Dinner isn't until 5:00, so my sleeping in wasn't a disaster.
As Teresa Nielsen Hayden says,
"a silly but irresistible practical joke: a solemn procession of the clergy of the Lutheran Church of Iceland, with an additional participant quietly joining the end of the queue."

Well, it's snowing here. AGAIN. Fourth time in a week. ARGH. (Though at least this time, it should just melt on hitting the pavement, thank god, unlike the other times)
Go Matt and the awesome Christmas Eve, woot!
I made monkeybread, and have plans to see movies at noontime.
