Truly shocking news, I know.

So all but one box of cookies has been sent, and one remains to be hand-delivered (firelizard5, see your email, which you will probably do before you see this. If not, you can keep reading.). I hope they get/got there safely and that they don't suck ( Read more... )

So I got an early Christmas present (i.e., it was shipped to a local store so I didn't have to haul/ship it across half the country ( Read more... )

So yeah. I won't be reading LJ tomorrow, if only to avoid GRRM's gleeful fanboying. Ugh. Talk about a disgusting weekend for football.

BUT!

Brace yourselves. It's after Thanksgiving... which means that cookies are around the corner.

Me: I'd like an (unnecessarily complicated drink order)

I love the Olympics so, so much. It's a legacy from my late grandfather (which falls among things such as my forehead and the Christmas bottle of Benedictine - to say nothing of stamp collecting), who used to donate $20 to the US Olympic team annually. In return, he got postcards or stickers. The highlight of this collection is the bumper sticker ( Read more... )

Remember that time I discussed the joys of my Roo Cup?

It just got better.

I went into the local station today to get my usual delicious orange and cream Icee, only to find that they'd added a new flavor - Strawberry Watermelon. And it's tasty. A cup of half-strawberry melon/half-orange fulfills every childhood Bubblicious fantasy I didn't know I ( Read more... )
