Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

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.

Art Crawl!!!

Me again: thank you, Erika!

I got the Amazon package and opened it and thought, "huh, I don't remember ordering this" and then I saw the manifest!

It looks like there are quite a few things I'm going to want to make for my kitty - so it's like a present for her too.

Meanwhile: not to my secret santee - I have part of my gift to you and should be getting another bit of it this week but probably won't be mailing it until after Christmas Day. Unless I get it really early this week. REALLY early.

Signed: Slacker for a reason.

ETA: off to add my new book, Kitty Knits to my Ravelry library!

Even though I'm not yet slacking in sending my gift (it should go out this week), I've totally been slacking in acknowledging getting a gift! Last week I received a box of fair-trade Darjeeling tea! Thank you, Secret Santa!!!

ohthankgoodness. My first year in the non-slacker exchange, and I was worried I was going to blow the deadline.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That HK toaster leaves a lot of untoasted area.

Goodies from TJs are now in the hands of the USPS.

Secret Santee: Your parcel is in the mail. I don't know if it will arrive before Xmas, but anything's possible. Maybe Boxing Day?
