Paw and fur. Or did you say only human bodies?

I ended up buying myself some Christmas presents too, I think it's impossible not to. No Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for me, I got myself the Peter Gabriel "Play" DVD, Kurt Vonnegut's "Welcome to the Monkey House", and one of the Ian Fleming Bond books that I never read, I forget which.

So are Affy and I alone in this? List time! What did you all buy for yourselves while Christmas shopping?

Would gut be allowed?

I fell asleep easily but woke up around 2 again. Had a time going back to sleep but finally managed it and slept unill 7. Today and tomorrow I plan to do absolutely nothing. Then I'll clean house and write thank you cards, etc. on Sunday and Monday.

Abs?

Amy the Ant - High Manzanilla of the Church of the Stuffed Olive

I didn' t do any Christmas shopping as such really but I did buy myself a mascara and a copy of I, Robot. And I would have bought myself a watch from Muji but they'd run out of the colour I wanted by the time I got round to it. All in all I was pretty good. I'm saving myself for the sales.

Amy the Ant - High Manzanilla of the Church of the Stuffed Olive

I've been looking forward for weeks to having nothing to do, and now I'm bored.

*turns on the radio to listen to the carol service and searches high and low in the Salon for her tiny ant-sized spectacles*

About two hours 'till the Christmas thingy get rolling - true to Danish tradition, Christmas is on the evening of the 24th here... smiley - smiley

Mrs SG V and the two SG V juniors went somewhat early - my Mum's picking me up and we're all getting together at my wife's sister. A full 3 km away smiley - smiley

I just need to wrap a small thingy for my dear wife and walk the smiley - dog a bit so I should be fine.

Lil, could you drop me your Email addy at santrageniusv at hotmail? I finally made myself make a Christmas card of sorts smiley - biggrin

Everyone - have a very nice Christmas! smiley - holly May pop in but emphasis on the next days is family 'hygge' (loosely translated to cosiness).

Asteroid Lil - Offstage Presence

Good morning everyone! It's down to 0ยบ Fahrenheit in my courtyard smiley - brr and the cats spent exactly 2 minutes outside. I let one in with slightly damp fingers and stuck to the screenlatch, and, for the first time since I moved here I've got frost inside the windows.

We went to a good restaurant in Capitan last night, and I drove in second gear and 4 wheel drive most of the way. Then, on our way back I had to drive through 3 or so miles worth of prairie blizzard conditions, with snow blowing sideways out of the north, down off the Capitans which parallel the road along that section. There's nothing but rolling flatland and a barbwire fence between the road and the mountains, and I was watching the road lose its demarcation as we chugged along. But the car was rock steady, and I know the road very well anyway, so we got home without incident.

But it's well cold right now! 56 here in the office, but I'm layered up like an Inuit, just a slightly drippy nose...

This may be my last post in a few days as well, everyone. Off to see four grandparents on Dec. 25th and Dc. 25th + 1.

Have a Patrick Swayze Christmas, if that's okay.
