it's been one of those weekends

It's almost ten. Do you think that I can find a man, bring him home and make some mad Fabio love before 9:30 tomorrow morning? - Liz makes me laugh

	Awards I have won

Remember that scene in The Karate Kid when Danny finds Mr. Miyagi's medals stowed away in a box, and he offers to make a display case for them, and Mr. Miyagi explains that awards aren't meant to be displayed and all that? Well, I think that's crap. I am very, very proud of these and I am therefore hanging them on my virtual "wall".

My hoopy cat award from an apple tree:

the undeniably coolest award - for being supported by unfathomable amounts of evidence making obvious, without the need of prior reading, or a degree in hyperbolic typollogy (hmhey) that this young woman is the coolest young woman there god damn is

My Miami award from Amanda:

The "Crossing Guardest (Not To Mention The Bon Joviest)" Award - To Kate, who taught us that painful burns can be fetching and attractive.

Quad Erat Demonstratum. It's the snooty way of saying, "I'm really, really right and you're really, really wrong," and then thumbing your nose at them and making nasty farting noises. - Spartus, here.

Thank goodness for alcohol, and pain killers, in that order.

What kind of backwards, heathen planet wouldn't have couches?

Propensity for breaking down completely at the inhumanity of it all is a plus.

We all managed to find each other, which wasn't that difficult, because there was only one loud noisy group of peoople, saying things like 'Really nice to meet you at last Evil Giraffe..' - it kind of gives it away

Also "there were lots of invitations, I know you sent me some"

Amanda has set up a Christmas wish list, and something tells me she's going to get more than one Easy Bake Oven under the tree this year! Go make a wish, will you?

December 6th marked the official beginning of the h2g2 Post, which I think is one of the sharper ideas in recent memory. It turned out really well and it's definitely, definitely worth a look or twenty. Have fun!

• I'm very happy today because Frustreren thinks I'm a pleasant h2g2er. :-)

	Becky's words of wisdom

My best friend Becky has just discovered h2g2! I'm going to quote her fantabulousness without even asking her..

"Trust me, there is such a thing as too much neked."
-her commentary on the show Naked Men Singing

"Do you think maybe we could put off the quickening and share in highlander status? Yes, everyone is coupling up, like it's spring and we're woodlin creatures or something. That damn DeBeers millennium commercial. Now I think that's just mean."

Okay, people, listen up. Here in the States it's almost Thanksgiving weekend. Tradition dictates that we list what we're thankful for. I've just had quite the time listing what I'm grateful about, and I'm interested to hear your lists. So come on, cough it up, and tell me what you're thankful for.
