Goodbye and Good Riddance 2011: Maybe the even years are better  

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. 2011? Room for improvement. Srsly.

This year has had too high a death count for my comfort.

Wanna come over for when I ritually BURN MY 2011 CALENDAR in early January? I don't usually do this, but I need to see a representation of this year literally go up in flames.

Our wings are not tired.

This year brought me the purchase of my house, and I am thankful for that. But the rest of it? Can kiss my arse.

Here's to a WONDERFUL 2012 for all of youse!

Mailed my giftee's package this afternoon. Holy shit, when did postage get so expensive? Gonna have to be satisfied with getting the package by Dec. 29th, because shooting for the 24th would have added $25 to the cost. TWENTY-FIVE DOLLARS. Nuts. Geez, what happened to the days when I could ship priority for under fifteen dollars?

The USPS kept operating at a loss.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

They gave me hand gardening tools. I think they might be from the 99 cent store as there is no brand name on them and they are a silly color that does not say 'serious gardening tool'. I am not keeping them. I have hand tools.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

They gave me hand gardening tools.

What, for your bonus? Good grief, that beats even my boss giving us USB keyboard vacuum cleaners.

I think they guaranteed christmas delivery if you got it to the PO by noon today. I was able to do priority (the if it fits, it ships thing) on Monday for the normal amount, medium box was like $10.95, large was like $14.95? I don't know if this was a new cutoff thing they did this year, but noon the 21st was it if you wanted it there by the 25th.
