Goodbye and Good Riddance 2016: We know the world didn't end, because, check it out!  

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.

Go away, 2016.

I'm assuming this wasn't a buffista, but it's still an odd Secret Santa thing -- left on my front porch this morning was a bag of cute gothy purses. It was hanging around the neck of one of our larger gargoyles. No note, just little purses with skulls and bat wings.

Sacrifices to the Goth Lady? "Well, we missed Halloween, so maybe an offering on the longest night of the year will appease Her and bring Her kindly, dark regard upon us."

Have you started manifesting your will through handbags?

My Buffista Elf has elfed! I got some nice-smelling soap and a Wonder Woman reusable water bottle. Thank you!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Dearest secret santee: Fear not! Your package will be ... somewhere between boxing day and new years. It's all together, but I only just managed outside pants today for the first time all week. Post office tomorrow, I pinky-swear.
