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.

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?

I'm so sorry for your loss, Karl. Fuck Cancer and fuck 20111

ION, I failed to make to the post office in time on Saturday, so I'm hoping to get my SSgift in the mail Monday.

I will also attempt to put the non-TJs return package in the mail this week as well.

My internet at home is on the fritz, so I don't know how often I will be able to post until it gets resolved.

I HAVE received my Secret Santa gift, but I have not yet opened it.

Still not done with shopping or wrapping or cooking. I'm looking forward to 4 days off next weekend!

I'm a fucking amazing catch!--Fiona Gallagher, Shameless(US)

Are they cat toys, Sumi? I couldn't quite picture what would be in a book like that, but it sounded cute.

Well, while I was using the WiFi at the grocery store, I googled post office locations and other mailing outlets and it turned out the grocery store was one of them!

So, Secret Santa gift is on its way!

And I came home and annoyingly, my internet was working again. So, yay, it's working, but boo, I drug my computer to the grocery store for almost nothing. I hate Quest/Centurylink!

Punishingly Intricate

Presents purchased, appropriately sized box located, presents to be wrapped and boxed tonight, and box will be shipped tomorrow!

And I just have to sugar sprinkle my cookie swap cookies and they will be ready. And pack and wrap and box and ship my brother's family's gifts. And write some xmas cards. And go to work for a couple of days

Art Crawl!!!

There are some cat toys and at least one cat bed plus some designs for humans, i.e., hats and other garments with cats on them. (There is a cool Peruvian type hat with abstract cats on it that I'd like to try to make. . . but not right now, since my knitting plans are pretty full.)
