    Merry Holidays and Happy Generic Winter Car Sale!

    Happy Winter Steam Sale!


    I'd wish everyone a happy New Year also, but I
    actually don?t want a new year this time around. New
    years haven't been working out lately. I?d like a
    gently-used year like 2007 or maybe 1996, if it?s
    still in good shape.


    I would like a return to the 90s, late 90s.

    Happy Winter Solstice (which I do believe in...it's
    REAL SCIENCE)!!

    As for going back to another time, there are pluses
    and minuses with each era. It's more that I wish that
    some people I've lost were still around, so I guess
    going back to the 1990s would take care of that
    problem.

    Nyssa, who has only watched one thing lately and it
    was the DVD (two disks) of the award-winning movie
    Flow (which she has been spreading good word of moutn
    about ever since)

    P.S. to BTR: Midnight would probably enjoy Flow too

    Midnight likes anything I watch so long as she can lie
    upside-down on my lap and have her belly rubbed while
    we watch it.

    Heehee.

    Yeah, she knows that she found a prime sucker when
    she walked in your door and took over. Good for her!

    Nyssa, who misses her various cats she's had over the
    years, but she was given a soft cuddleblanket for
    Christmas and it's almost as good as a cat (but doesn't
    purr)

    Or poop!

    Yeah, there is that as a bonus, but I still miss the
    purring.

    I don't miss the claws to my face as a wake-up call
    that my last cat thought was so cute. Effective, yes;
    cute no.

    Nyssa, whose last cat also thought she was a dog which
    made things interesting at times

    I am a bit envious. Mine pushes everything off my dresser and tables.
