Goodbye and Good Riddance 2013: That Was the Year That Was  

Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Out you go, 2013!

Squeeeeee. I just got a package that has the most awesome Supernatural hex bag. It has salt, and army man, Lego blocks, a matchbook from the Winchester Mystery House and a bunch of smashed pennies from the Winchester Mystery House. Oh, and a shoe (the one Sam lost?). It looks like this is from ita! Thank you!!!

Thank you to smonster for the wonderful gifts! The pecans are delicious, the mug is perfect, and the ornament is awesome. I can't wait to wear the new bracelet, but the card made me cry.

You are the best!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Suzi and smonster should have received cookies today. Liese gets dibs on the next batch I make.

Today was another family gathering. There is one more tomorrow and then I'm shutting myself up in the house with books and leftovers.

I love reading happy Buffistas.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I may be an optimist to a degree that is actually fucked-up: I was starting to think about a year-end wrap up, and actually thought out loud, "This year was pretty good for me...." Yeah, no. This WEEK was pretty good, even this month. I mean, the rest of it had its moments, but most people would probably put most of it in the minus column.

Jesse, this is the first year that I've seriously considered some type of ritual to clear 2013 away.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

You guys, Bonny is a fantastic Secret Santa! She sent me a vampire book I haven't read (The Angry Angel by Chelsea Quinn Yarbro), and a HUGE selection of witchy/occult ritual goodies. (Which were packed in a big Sephora box, which made Pete crack up at the appropriateness of it.)

Thank you so much, Bonny!

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

I wore the scarf out last night and got a number of compliments. I lurves it.

This makes me happy.

Our wings are not tired.

I may be an optimist to a degree that is actually fucked-up

This used to be me, and I need to go back there. It is not a bad place to be.

I once had an astrologer reader type person tell me I was optimistic, then corrected herself and said, "no, you are steadfastly optimistic in the face of certain disaster." I miss that.
