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!

Because books.

Due to circumstances, I have not purchased one gift yet, for anyone. But tomorrow is payday! So that will change. Secret Santee, your gift might arrive after Christmas, but it will be there before NYE for sure. Promise!

Yeah, I'm torn between being worried about ita and not wanting to make anything harder by demandin checkins! But it's weird not having her around.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Just hit the dollar store for wrapping paper. I am terribly pleased with myself.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I wrote her the other day, but don't have much to report.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I've been sending her links to things she might like on Tumblr, but not asking her things.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Is it wrong that all I want to do is to go home and see what I got in the mail today?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

No, because then you come here and tell us about it, and it makes us happy too.

I just did a whirlwind cleanup and got my Xmas stuff set up so that I can shortly sit down with Masterpiece Mystery and some of the lovely teas that I found on my doorstep today! The box smelled delicious before I even got it open. Nom. Thanks Secret Squirrel Santa!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

meara, I've been in contact with ita via text, but not every day.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I hope ita's doing okay: please let her know we're thinking of her.

Me, I'm going to buy cream of tartar today so I can make these snickerdoodles.

I mailed all my holiday cards yesterday, so I'm basically done with my holiday prep except for wrapping things. And baking. And stuff. Hmm, I'm really not done, am I?
