Way cool, Spooky.

I won't know for a while yet. The 'mates are still snug in their bed, counting sugarplums, I assume.

I'm going downstairs to locate a pot of black coffee...

That's the best gift you could give someone, a definate idea of what you would like to get.
Takes all the pressure off.

Last night 'twas witching Hallowe'en
Dearest; an apple russet- brown
I pared, and thrice above my crown
Whirled the long skin; they watched in keen;
I flung it far; they laughed and cried me shame
Dearest, there lay the letter of your name!

Sorry to hear that happened to you. :( But at least you're getting replenished now.

I want to get a new espresso machine in at work. This old one is the bane of my existence. It still makes great espresso and the steamer is good, it's just ancient. We have to keep repairing it. Santa couldn't bring that this year..guess I have to work for it.

ng outI got a bottle of perfume, a flat iron and a matching pink hair dryer. I'm so glad that it's over, I get to put everything away and start my clearing out my old stuff and donating process. I'm running out of room to put all my junk. :D

I'm looking forward to digging in to my two new book/cd sets on Scots Gaelic. I'm also enjoying the latest literary offering from Irvine Welsh, and David Plouffe's book on the 2008 Obama campaign.

My favorite gift I gave was the snuggie-knockoff I made for Wee Brither. It came out far better than I expected:

I'm glad I read the rest of that sentence! Thought you ended up in jail there for a sec.
