Oh, more happiness!

I got my Christmas Box at work today. You see, in my country Christmas Bonus are not very usual, because most of us got what we call "aguinaldo".
This aguinaldo means you got extra cash twice a year. Half of your monthly income in June and the other half in December. Now, December is always higher, because it supposed to be half of your best salary in the whole year. So, with the raises and additional hours, and stuff, you always got more, and the difference with what you actually got in June. What it is kind of traditional, is your boss giving you something drinks/food related. Some boss are rationals, other ones, are cheap. Mine? He goes crazy. So, I got 6 bottles of sidra, 2 bottles of champagne (and rosè extra-dry, mu favorite!) 1 bottle of anana-fizz (champagne with anana juice) and one of strawberry-fizz (champagne with, yeah, you got it, strawberry juice), 6 bottles of a really good red wine, and 6 of a wonderful white (he knows I favored white wine), 2 pannetonne, 6 puddings, and lot of little stuff.
Now, I was pretty happy, arriving at home with my box, but then, I had mail!!!!
det_munch, I got your card! And OMG!

FUNNIEST.
CARD.
EVER.!
You should see it: hand made, with reinder!Methos, Santa hats Hawkeye and Trapper, and a Ho! Ho! Ho! Homicide Munch!, lots of purpurine and had a Christmas tree
Thank you so much, it is obvious how much care and affection you put in doing it *hugs you*
I also got one from PWFC with an amazing card with Peter on it, and 2009 calender. There is nothing like too much Peter Wingfield :)
And a card from my parents which looks quite strange between the rest *laughs*

So... YAY!!!!
