Fog!

It's thick fog, today.:)  (It's warm out and all the snow is evaporating.)  Ah, happyness - I love fog. :) 

And now, a snippet of Alice's Restaurant, because it's plunking around in my head.  I love this bit...
( typical case of American blind justice )

But now to the real order of business... (who was it who said women always put the important part of a letter in the post script?  "The weather here is lovely, take care of yourself, all the best from your sister ... PS. It is a good thing the weather's nice because the house burned down so we're living in the garage for a while."):

I have like a million cards which I haven't thanked people for, and I just got a lovely packet of things from daegaer last night, which made me realize I have to get off my ass and at least thank people, even if I can't seem to get even so much as cards out. 

So - daegaer, thank you!  Such lovely, pretty things.  Schwartz doesn't have to have anything to do with the music on the CD, the picture is cool.:)  And the picture of Aziraphale from the book of Kells!  It makes sense!  Although he looks as though the weather had him a bit down, all wrapped up in that shawl and his mouth looks sort of grumpy.  Did you notice his eyes are wicked bloodshot?  Also, whoever issued him that body was a little hazy on human anatomy - his hand is on backward.:)  But no picture of yourself?  *sigh*  I still want to marry you, you know, even if you are a dissembodied writing spirit. 

bravecows - Thank you!  And I don't know if he's told you, but you totally made eor's day by sending him a card, I could tell, he just glowed. :)  You'd have laughed at how you confused me by sending cards which looked identical on the outside.:)  (I actually DID send you card a while back, but I sent it to your school address, so hopefully it will catch up with you someday.)

mizzmarvel - I don't know if I said already, but I totally squeeed with delight when I saw the Gilligan/Professor Valentine, and I just grin every time I walk by it.:) 

laurenscavenger - "Litha"?  You managed to finda winter holiday I know nothing about.:) 

tronella - Thank you for remembering me, and I promise I haven't forgotten you. :)  You're on my list, I'm just... haven't done my list. 

I always feel so guilty about it, but I really suck at doing the whole Christmas thing.  So many times I have said "this year I didn't do well" - actually, it's pretty much every year.  I got token gifts of minor clothing, food and candy for six people - my very closest friends and relatives - and that was about my limit.  Even with only that I got so stressed out I ended up missing a good chunk of work the day I sent packages out. 

Now I must take a shower and eat breakfast rather quickly - I have my physical this morning.  Ack!  Yuck!  Ptui!
