Don't you just hate it when this happens?

There were at least Thirty people participating in a White Elephant Gift Exchange. We drank unfiltered Saki, ate lobster and steak fired up on a 2x4 foot hibachi, by a knife wielding cook, throwing hot mustard and flames, as we roasted against a plate glass window in the late afternoon.  

Ha-ha....On My Birthday no less!  

I bring a safe gift that is at least useful to all.  (a $20 Target gift card)  I draw #2.  Gift #1 was shot glasses.  A pass for me.  

So what do I do?  

I chose a new gift that turns out to be...

Ladies!  It dances.  It lights up!  It plays..."Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer."  Oh yes it does.  BTW, I'm not a Grandma.


There was no hope that anyone would steal this dancing hat full of awesomeness away from me.  I couldn't even find an image of this Dan Dee Choice Collectible.  It's out there now, because I put it there.


I'll be scouring Lowe's for this wicked little Garden Gnome this weekend. 


In the mean time, I must admit, the hat is growing on me.

I hope you are all doing well this holiday season.

Hi Readers,

About now, you're thinking "Didn't I just see an APB for this dress?"  Yes you did.  But that request was for Monica.  This request is for a size 8 Tangerine Flicker Dress for Alison.

Tangerine Flicker for Monica - Size 2 FOUND

Hi Readers,

Monica found her dress!  Yay!

I am looking for one Tangerine Flicker Dress in a size 2 for my friend Monica. Monica helped me score a pair of Malbec Heels last night.  In return, I want Monica to find her dress.

Sadly, I live in a No Anthro Zone. I am counting on you, my fellow community members and friends, to help fulfill this favor. If you spot this dress, please place it on hold for Monica. Or perhaps you plan to return a size 2 to your store.

You may contact Monica directly at monaheel@gmail.com

As always, I am forever grateful for the power of this community to make the seemingly impossible a reality.

BTW, Nefi injured her front paw.  Luckily it isn't broken. She is on Antibiotics and Anti-inflammatory.  I discovered yesterday, the easiest way to give a Rabbit medication, is to drip it onto fresh mint. I wish I would have thought to try this a week ago.  I was spending an hour day trying to catch a Rabbit that doesn't like having a syringe forced in her little mouth. It was a losing battle.

I have a backlog of OOTD's just waiting for a break so I can post them.

Hoppy Easter!!!
