it's that time of year again ...
- Dec. 2nd, 2008 at 1:53 AM
I just got my new writing assignment and I'll be leaving to get Emily in less than two weeks -- and it's almost Christmas time! Well, by now I expect to be busy this time of year. But in honor of the season, I had to take the time to gak this from lots of people:
Dear Santa, This year I've been busy! In February I gave  eternal_shalott a life-saving blood transfusion (50 points). Last Saturday I set fangfaceandrea's puppy on fire (-66 points). In July kittyzams and I donated clothes to the needy (11 points). Last week on a flight to LA, I stole the emergency flight information card (-40 points). Last Wednesday I helped jaded_jamie across the street (6 points). Overall, I've been naughty (-39 points). For Christmas I deserve a moldy sandwich! Sincerely, |

Of course, I've been dealing with deadlines from my part time newspaper jobs for decades, but that's just a small town local paper -- this is quite a step up from that.
I believe I'd prefer the spanking to the moldy sandwich.. :D
