I swear to god, if my mom makes me go to Mass, too, after all I've been through this week...

It's getting towards the homestretch and I've only completed about 50% of my list. This is getting ridiculous--I'd be done already if most of the day wasn't spent just standing in line listening to fat women complaining they're fat as they shoveled Payday

Oh man, I feel ya... (Just popping in to check out your blog since I snagged a few avs) At least in terms of painful memories of Xmases past. Fortunately though, my family has done away with gift-giving for the last few years (other than for my niece and nephew) which makes the Season sooo relaxed and stress-free.

Good luck with the remainder of your shopping and dealing with the idiots, and if natural selection can't take care of 'em, I'll send in the Ents!

Hang in there!

[sexion8]

Steal away, my friend, steal away.

Yeah, my family's going to have to come up with a do-able system for next year because all this shopping has got to go. I'm not a people person, so to put me in a situation where I'm forced to interact with them en masse really just makes me want to climb a watchtower and start snipering.

Thanks for the moral support! And the Ents!

I just went to Mordor for two turkey breasts and survived. Hellmart now has a new name, thanks to you.

[sexion8]

It's an appropriate new name, I feel. The Nazgul are the sidewalk Santas jingling their bells and looking heart-wrenchingly sad in your direction--to be avoided at all costs. *finger down throat*

[salveo_opes]

I'm just glad it's almost over with for this year, which is sad, considering I have children.

I should do a post about that on my lj--what do the people on my flist hate about the holidays and why.

77,701!!! oh god I love simple games. it's like a long-extended-brain-fart session

[sexion8]

[electriclime]

with proof!!
I get the flying higher, but I can NOT get those damn elves to do what I want them to do!!!

Did you see the high scores?? You have to get over 12 million JUST to get on the list! what the hell!

[sexion8]

I know, it's like you get a 50-50 shot at an elf kick no matter how you hold the mouse.

Also...12 million? I want to know what cross-eyed nerd gets those kinds of scores. Seriously, if I had that kind of time to devote, I'd just play World of Warcraft like the rest of my friends already!

Well, for what it's worth, you calling me an "assload of awesome" on my LJ was my best gift yet this year. Pineapple can keep his Treo Thingamabob.

Aw! But you are! (Thanks again for that Comicspace heads-up, it really does look cool as anything cool ever was.)

[waltzy]

My pleasure! I know you're a big comic book fan, so I figured you'd dig it. Plus, forums like that can never have enough pretty ladies, that's what I always say. Here's where you'll find me over there:

I...CANNOT WAIT...for the Dark Tower mini-series. It'll be interesting to see how the lobstrosities, Shardik (cyborg bear), Walter, Blaine the Train and the City of Lud are portrayed. Among, like, a hundred other things, including The Crimson King.

Love, love, love!

I got me in the 200,000 range. Those are some tall ass pine trees. How do they survive in the North Pole?

[sexion8]

You might as well ask how the reindeer eat, while you're at it.

Last time I checked--well, not checked as I've never been to the North Pole, but last time I read--there weren't any magical fields of grain and grass for mammals.

Unless reindeer can take down a walrus or know where to stomp through the snow to get at baby seals, they be starvin' marvins up in them thar snowy hills.

[skyblade]

Well, obviously those reindeer are fed the ground-up remains of slacker reindeer. And elves. Get ready for a mad reindeer epidemic.
