I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

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.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

Either my elf struck again, or I've been mayhem elfed! I got a shiny gold rainbow-on-a-cloud sticker patch and a beautiful heart-shaped ornament with sugar skulls on it. Thank you, A.N. Elf!

I also got a card from sj with adorable pictures of ltc. Hooray!

In non-Buffista gift news, there was a package waiting for me on my doorstep when I got home. It was a stack of DVDs from a friend from out of town who's moving and purging--a week after I purged half of my DVD collection. ::sigh::

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

amyth, that's proof that the universe requires DVD homeostasis.

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

I'm glad you liked the card, amyth.

I didn't do the Secret Santa because Christmas overwhelms me, but if anyone wants to be added to my mailing list for cards next year or possible random gifties at other times of the year, send me your meat space address to my profile addy.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I have arrived in Arizona, where my SS present(s?) are, but have been told that, since they are wrapped, I am not allowed to open them until Christmas.

I protested, but this is How Things Are Done Here.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I got a lovely package from my Secret Santa with an adorable mug (with a handle shaped like an 'A'!) and some gunpowder green tea. Thank you so much, Secret Santa!

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I got a lovely note from my Santa that they made a donation in my name to Open Table, an organization in Nashville that provides food and shelter to the homeless. Thank you for supporting them! It means a lot to me. I have a friend who volunteers with them, and I'm hoping one day soon I'll be able to do the same. And re: the second part of your message, I'm out of town but will be home on Wednesday, so I look forward to seeing what you sent! Thanks, Santa!
