Merry, Merry!! Oh, Joy, Joy!!

[capri0mni]

First, it started yesterday afternoon. I was coming out of the bathroom, between changing my pants, when the doorbell started ringing quite insistantly. "Damn!" I thought to myself, hurrying for a towel to throw over my nekkid bottom, while I called "I'm Coming!! Hang on!" out loud.

Once I was duly covered up and "decent," I opened the door to find my two young neighbors, with a bag of homemade cookies and a card, just for me!! I thanked them cheerily and wished them a Merry Christmas.

Today, I tried to call their mother and thank her, and tell her how delicious they are (mint chocolate sugar cookies with a chocolate mint candy center, and some sort of nut/coconut balls dipped in chocolate), only to discover they've switched to a new, unlisted number.

Hmmm... will have to make a spiffy "Thank you" card, and have my aide hang it from their doorknob tomorrow... Maybe a Santa with a cornucopia on the front?

Then, I go to the futon and open Gordon's "Parcel of niftiness"[tm]. Inside I find: A radio-controlled Dalek (ROtFLMAO!! This seems to be the season for it!), a 2006 Doctor Who Annual, a big bag of jellybabies, and a plethera of C.D's for watching and listening (too many to list here in their entirety, but including Wallace and Grommit! And HIGNFY! Yay!!)

Gordon, you are just too wonderful for words!!

We will have to arrange for Gordon to be covered in his weight in gold or something. *zaps sonic screwdriver and dances*

Then you can rub me against Cybermen chest units to kill them. *nods*

That sounds remarkably dirty, now that I have a mental image... ow...:)

But then you have a heart of gold and will repel Cybermen anyway. *nods*

Oh, I second that. And then I second my seconding! :-)

I *need* a shower, then I shall sit down and listen to CDs while I make that card for my neighbors.

As soon as I saw the wee Daleks were being sold early, I knew I had to send one. :)

You, Too, Rusty! I meant to comment on that pic last night -- I think it's one of your best, yet!!

Omg!:):):):):):):) What a LOVELY GOOD AND DARLING present. Omg. Dude. Hignfy! You will know what people are speaking of:) I was thinking of sending it as a sort of care package to all my american people for that very reason:) ::dances you and gloves you and showers you with glitter::

I send Qi as well, as a public service. :)

[jekesta]

You are the best thing ever! ::licks you::

I noticed that. I have No Idea Whatsoever what QI is... wasn't sure if it was a tv program, or music, or computer program, or what... I meant to ask...

[narm00.livejournal.com]

TV programme. It's a quiz show, hosted by Stephen Fry (as in the guy who's writing for Doctor Who), on BBC2 in the UK. Not for prizes, or anything like that - it's more Stephen throwing out these difficult questions and seeing what the contestants (usually four comedians) come up with as answers. The fun is in seeing their answers - and Stephen's explanation of the actual answers. Hopefully something you'd enjoy.

It is technically a quiz show, the title stands for Quite Interesting and it is a wonderful pool of warm fuzzy clever and silly stuff and is on right after/before HIGNFY on the telly, this giving us our weekly hour of squee. *nods*

Okay, I shall be sure to watch them together, then (now that I've finally defragged my hard drive in way too long).

I know... I squee-ed and giggle-ed when I saw Hignfy. I thought you might be pleased...
