Spike ,'Conversations with Dead People'
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.
Buh bye, 2014.
You guys who can wait to open things are perplexing.
Right now, knowing I get to go home and open not just a present, but a present from Laura is helping me get through the work day.
Today's present is a cool shirt/sweater with a beach/water scene that is Christmas decorated with beads and such. Which sounds weird, so maybe I should take a picture
I have embroidered sayings on panties before...
My friendship with Colin was solidified because I was painting boxers for a friend of mine (I never got the 'no platonic underwear' memo) and needed to know what colour the Grinch was (I suck at colour, but am sometimes okay when painting clothes, for some reason). He described it perfectly over the phone, and that was our first contact outside TheatreSports. 25 years ago.
I've also given guys silk underwear platonically.
Squee! Got my Santa package from Santa Suzi, and it's the best! Lots of yummy goodies: cookies, berry honey, caramels, toffee, spiced plum, and mulling spices. And my second tea infuser--the first was an adorable little guy, and this one is a TARDIS. So yay. The kicker? Stockings personalized for our pets. Two frosted biscuits for Kaylee and Newton and four little catnip candy canes for Mia, Seamus, Simon and Wilson. Made of win! Thanks, Santa!
Santee, I have assembled your gift and it is being mailed tomorrow. I hope it will be there before Christmas; if not, it should be there the day after. Hope you enjoy!

I was looking for ugly Christmas sweaters without luck, so that was what happened.
Mmmmmm, Suzi makes super treats. I had goodies from her last year.
Regardless, Scola is a gem, set in sterling.
Indeed.
Yay! I'm glad you like the treats. They are all from Colorado businesses, except the Tardis.
Suzi, I still can taste the yummy treats you sent last year. Both the super Suzi cookies, and the Colorado honey - taste delights.
I have the pieces of my gift purchased, but I just spent a lot of stress trying to get my sister's family gifts out and my parents so I may have to take a Post Office break till next week. BUT - if they don't get there before Xmas, that's OK, right?
By the 31st is the goal. All good no stress. Loves.
more what you'd call guidelines than actual rules
I know we all do the best we can with the timing, but we also know how crazed everyone is. I have not managed even a single gift for the family. Really need to get on that.
