Christmas was not terribly exciting, but not aggravating either so I call it a win! On the gift front, my mother has officially given up on trying to surprise me. Blame my age, her lack of access to my amazon wish list (she doesn't have a computer) and fandom interests that will occasionally confuse her. Still, she gave me some cool/useful stuff ( Read more... )

Since I see my west coast friends are posting it must mean Christmas Eve is nearly at an end and Christmas day will soon be upon us. Which means I'm rapidly running out of time to get my Holiday post posted!

For those of you who have known me FOREVER, or at least since Buffy fandom, you know of my tradition to butcher put a fandom spin on ( Read more... )

Hello All. I hope you all had nice holidays. Mine was uneventful, which I suppose is a good thing. No exciting gifts from my mom to report. Though she did give me a sizable check which is always nice. And I got some lovely and surprising gifts from friends. sdwolfpup and brynnmck sent me a coffee mug with my drawing of Jamie on it. Hee! It's next to the Lee ( Read more... )

I mean that in the good way. I made two trips to two different post offices today and mailed out most of the cards and a couple of packages. I even managed to score a free international stamp because the postal clerk miscounted. This evening I finished up the cards, got all of my gifts to be mailed wrapped and boxed, and I'll be at the post ( Read more... )

missmurchinson just reminded me I can talk about the Dexter finale now. Long story. ;)

Just got back from Mom's. I spent over eight hours with her with no urges to kill. Woo Hoo! Maybe it had something to do with her being so upbeat and into the holiday which was...odd ( Read more... )
