i've been meaning to make this post for a long time. but now all my christmas cards are in the mail, the packages are either sent off or sitting here ready to be mailed tomorrow, all the presents are wrapped, and all the christmas baking is done. i can breath a bit of a sigh of relief. i still have to finish my grandparents' present, but i can't do that until they get back to me about something. oh, and i still have pr0nmas fics to write, but i'm hoping i can do that tomorrow at work. so i'm pretty sure i'm as ready as i can be for christmas this year. :)

now, on to what i wanted to say.

pretty much just THANK YOU to all the lovely people who sent me cards. marigold6, lynnemezzo, wbearsmom, wonder_walldbc, rogerpittman, giddy_london, aprilmay430, celtprincess13, babydazzle, and two people i'm ashamed to say that i don't remember your user ids. (that's the bad thing about these journals. you get to know people by their eljay names, and when they use their real names, you have no idea who they are. at least, i don't. so would ms. epstein and ms. vierno touch base with me? just refresh my memory. we all know how lousy it is, anyway.) i got birthday cards from quite a few of you, too. i even got a thanksgiving card from theempress14. (which i found hidden at the bottom of a stack of newspapers when i was cleaning up from my birthday party, btw. thank you for that, mother.)

and i received lovely gifts from theempress14 and crowson75. you girls know what i like, i have to say. *lol* CHOCOLATE OM NOM NOM. i've already gone on about triedunture's awesome present of a signed stephen fry book, but it's worth mentioning again. :D THANK YOU SO MUCH, LADIES. I ADORE YOU ALL.

i have the best flist in the world. hands down. you all make getting through a difficult time that much easier. *love to you all*

• 17:33 wait. what? brittany murphy died?! WTF? D: #
• 17:36 @random_nexus i heard it was a heart attack. but at 32? sounds like drugs, maybe. :((( reminds me of heath ledger. such a shock. #
• 17:41 @random_nexus i really hope it wasn't drugs, though. that would be even more awful. ...not that a defect makes it okay. #
• 17:47 @random_nexus very true, darling. #
