Holiday Card List!

 I haven't sent out Holiday cards in several years.  I guess I just didn't have the spirit, after going through so much crap with the divorce, foreclosure, job losses, etc.  This year I am definitely in the mood and I want to reach out to you - the friends I have here.  I don't care how far away you live, if you'd like to receive at least one piece of mail this December that is NOT a bill, post your real name and address here (all comments will be screened for privacy) and I will send you a card.  Even if we've exchanged addresses before, please post it again here because it would be really helpful to have them all in one place.

So whether you celebrate Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa or Festivus join in the fun!

Just for silly...

Dear Santa... Dear Santa, This year I've been busy! Last Wednesday I helped zagella across the street (6 points). In September I pulled over and changed diver_boy's flat tire (15 points). In July I gave karlita a life-saving blood transfusion (50 points). In June mcfluffy and I donated clothes to the needy (11 points). Last month I punched def_fr0g_42 in the arm (-10 points). Overall, I've been nice (72 points). For Christmas I deserve a new dolly! Sincerely, kukla_red

Because I am avoiding work

I have to finish my assistant's annual appraisal and I hate writing these things so I stole this from isis_lives  to do instead.

1. My uncle once: showed up at my hospital room dressed as a bunny with mylar balloons to cheer me up after having my tonsils and adenoids out when I was 24.

02. Never in my life: have I been to a tropical place.

03. When I was five: I lived in Brooklyn and used to watch the fireworks while dressed in my nightgown hanging out on the roof with my friend Gracie Bell.

04. High school was: an emotional blast.

05. I will never forget: my parents.

06. I once saw: the northern lights in Vermont.

07. There’s this girl I know: who is more amazing than she will ever know.

08. Once, at a bar: ooo I can't tell this one!!

09. By noon: I've already done more than most people do all day.

10. Last night: David and I had a good heart to heart talk.

11. If only I had: enough money to stop worrying so much about money.

12. Next time I go to church: why do these things always assume that everyone is a Christian?

13. What worries me most: is finding a way to pay for 2 kids to go to college next fall and still have enough left to live on.

14. When I turn my head left I see: the December page of the calendar David bought me for Christmas last year.

15. When I turn my head right I see: the rest of my office and the door leading into the hallway.  Having a private office rocks!

16. You know I’m lying when: That just wouldn't happen.

17. What I miss most about the '80s is: my flat stomach.

18. If I were a character in Shakespeare, I’d be: Rosalind from "As You Like It".

19. I have a hard time understanding: why my ex-husband and my brother are such wastes of space.

20. If I ever go back to school: it will be to take something fun.
