I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2010: Don't Let the Door Hit Ya...  

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 2010? We have a few words for you.

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

I rushed to post and just noticed Amy and msbelle's posts. You guys are making me blush!

Choosing presents is one of my favorite things! Too bad I can't figure out a way to do it for a living.

At this point, I would pay you. I have no presents and no ideas. I really need to get off my shit this weekend.

(Not for my SS - actually, that's the one person I do have ideas for. Family, not so much.)

I thought the scarf was purple, so I thought you'd like it. But, hey, if it's navy it's all good!

It could be purple. I've got a lot of fluorescent lights in my place and later in the day without any natural light coming in colors can be kinda skewed. Both colors work for me, so I'm happy with either. I just love the weight of it, it's perfect.

Family is always tough.

I always start by thinking of the person and what they have said and done, what they have expressed an interest in. Then I look for things that remind me of them and the things that they like.

Buffistas make it so easy with the lists and all the easily trolled posting.

I always have fun with the internet stalking part. Totally justified! Mostly harmless!

And, in his eternal quest to best the quester, gift #3 is... a game!

Yeah, that Scola doesn't know me at all.

Sadly, I cannot further investigate the intriguingly named Forbidden Planet as I am off to the ballet, but it looks like just the kind of co-operative card game I love. 3 down, 1 to go. Yay, Tom!

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

Oooh! That's a great game! Good choice, Scola. It's very fun. I got to play a couple games with the creator.
