Goodbye and Good Riddance 2012: If the world doesn't end, I'm going to need a note
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. 2012--better luck next time.
IT'S THE BEST THING!!!
I always have the bestest gifts - SORRY EVERYONE ELSE!
Loving bigtime on msbelle right now.
Yay Cold Kiss! I was looking for the "like" button. You will enjoy.
I am wearing a pair of my stripy socks and they are happy-making. I have shown them off to fun co-workers and they are mightily jealous. hahahaha I win at socks.

Yay! I bought it recently to read when I was done with ASOIAF, especially because Glass Heart had just come out, but I want to wait to read it until I can get GH from the library. I was all set to read it and then I saw that all the copies were checked out! "Dammit!" I said. But then I thought, "Good!" Because it's in demand, and that's cool!
I'm just gonna toss this out there--if you haven't gotten your person a gift yet, how wrong can you go with this: [link] ? And, yes, I am considering pets in that question.
Or, for select Buffistas, there's this.
I want both those things.
I should maybe say that I am under orders not to open any packages before Christmas, because my family doesn't believe in paying for wrapping on stuff they order online, so I may be a little slow in oohing and aahing about my secret santa present. It will be appreciated though!
I seem to have broken up with my family, what there is of it (mother and sister). I'd stopped calling, except for specific occasions (birthdays and holidays), because they'd never call me and, when I called, weren't all that interested in letting me say anythng. Now, I haven't heard from them for a while; the last time was my sister telling me that my mother was in the hospital (again) and that she was getting less and less in touch mentally.
I'd planned on not visiting them at Christmas - I'd skipped the past two years, once because of an injury that made driving impossible and last year because I was recovering from cataract surgery - and it's always been fairly miserable.
I'm feeling a bit adrift, but I'm looking forward to being able to sleep in my own bed, be comfortable, go to my church, and generally have a low-key, no family hassles holiday. But it's still kind of weird.
