Tomorrow is usually the day that is hard for mac, but we had a pretty low key day today and all went well. No one had more than 4 gifts to open and I think I have completely bought in to the movement away from a commercialized Christmas. Next year, maybe only one gift each.
Zoe: First rule of battle, little one. Don't ever let 'em know where you are. Mal: Whoo-hoo! I'm right here! I'm right here! You want some of me? Yeah, you do! Come on! Come on! Aaah! Whoo-hoo! Zoe: Of course, there are other schools of thought...

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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Good stuff, msbelle. Glad to hear it. I've been thinking of y'all and wondering how the day went.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
See, this is exactly what I like about my birthday -- it's more of a gradual let-down.

I'm going to download that and use it as a desktop picture for a while!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
That poster made me tear up in the best of all possible ways.

I want to know whose picture was the heart-shaped pizza. It made me giggle.
