17963. thoughtful - 12/26/2005 4:22:20 AM Hope everyone enjoyed their xmas.
me I'm just delighted to have been the recipient of 2 superb gifts from my hubby
2 lbs. of solid 72% chocolate
Complete New Yorker on DVD
What a combination! I've already soaked up a few thurbers and eb whites...not to mention a few Peter Arno and Chas Addams toons, and a most interesting article about a man from latvia in the 1930s who kept writing enormous checks to people who showed him a kindness on an account at a bank which no longer exists.
Simply luscious. 17964. arkymalarky - 12/26/2005 7:03:44 AM Oh how nice!
I got Bob all the Seinfeld DVDs I could find. I didn't find Season 3.
I'm trying to de-stuff enough to get to sleep. 17965. Magoseph - 12/28/2005 2:40:46 PM Hey. Ali, did you have a chrissy holiday? 17966. alistairconnor - 12/28/2005 2:55:23 PM Five-day weekend with the girls.
We had a great time, messing around at home mostly.
I invited their mother to join us for Christmas Eve. We owed that to the kids : they believe in Christmas. It went very well, all things considered. 17967. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 8:46:31 AM O fer chissakes, it was horrible and you know it.
Strained at best. Hope you took photos.
I am well into a 3-day drunk. I hate the freaking holidays. 17968. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 9:07:13 AM I spent $2819.47 on liquor this year.
$2606.40 in 2004.
$2746.27 in 2003.
$1837.34 in 2002.
$1125.46 in 2001.
$1278.03 in 2000.
2003 really sucked, didn't it? 17969. alistairconnor - 12/29/2005 10:26:46 AM I'll tell you what, you're right about 2003.
But wrong about Christmas. I probably enjoyed it more than the Ex, because I'm better at keeping the strands of life separate (or ignoring what's really going on, if you prefer)
I know what you mean about the holidays. I prefer to avoid taking more time off work than I have to, at this time of year.
Did your boy have a good christmas? 17970. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 10:53:59 AM yep, he did indeed, thanks for asking.
now if it would snow.... 17971. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 11:04:35 AM I got him a sled with a steering wheel and brakes. It came in a big-ass box and there is no snow, however.
Child, cousins, cats, have been playing in the box. 17972. alistairconnor - 12/29/2005 11:20:59 AM Ah. We had the cold but only a dusting of snow over Christmas. Now we've got the real thing. I assume the kids are sledding at their mother's place. We had a hell of a good day last week at a little ski station.
I've been riding my bike through a snow-covered pretty city. Tonight I'll be taking the GF home to the big house in the hills, if the roads are clear. 17973. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 11:49:36 AM Ah, indeed.
big house reminds me of brother going to prison.
He was proud he made it to the 'big house'
I almost wrote something even more awful, but maybe he's not dead and he is getting better. 17974. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 11:51:10 AM merry christmas! 17975. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 11:51:41 AM happy holidays! 17976. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 11:52:02 AM Arcade Fire! 17977. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 11:52:29 AM AC/DC! 17978. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 11:53:06 AM Happy New Year! 17979. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 12:34:18 PM yea rrichtm can bug
Forget the hearse ’cause I never die
I got nine lives
Cat’s eyes
Abusin’ every one of them and running wild
AC/DC 17980. PelleNilsson - 12/29/2005 1:26:32 PM The European snowstorm reached us a couple of hours ago. It's not too bad, at least not here and not yet, but reports from the south talk about serious snowdrift problems on the plains. 17981. alistairconnor - 12/29/2005 3:30:21 PM We want photos of course. 17982. Magoseph - 12/29/2005 3:55:32 PM Ali, I just found thes pictures from a place very near where I was born:
