Stuff to address:

First things first:

A Gronktastic Birthday is wished to [profile] smarbaby!!!

Enormous thanks to [personal profile] civil for sending me my first Yule card of the season. And to [profile] princezna who thrilled me with the news that she will be in town for the holidays and I will probably get to see her. Wheee! Further thanks to [profile] uterdic who brought me chocolate in the shape of merlions. I am assuming he got them in Singapore, on his lunch break or some such. And finally thanks to [profile] pak_man78 and [profile] lickingtoad for joining us for Smallville and that crazy ep of Law & Order that revisted people from the very first season. And for bringing me a cheesburger, Me likee.

I'm at the shelter tonight, and every Thursday this month except the 23rd. I said I would work Christmas Eve since I don't have crap else to do that day and they couldn't find anyone else to cover it. I imagine everyone at the shelter will be in terrible moods. Speaking of the shelter, we still desperately need blankets, scarves, mittens, gloves and hats. Do let me know if you have any of these things you can donate. For my part, I will be crocheting very soon.

Moving on to things that irritate and annoy, I'm angry and stupefied that someone would shoot a musician dead in the middle of a show. And in Ohio, no less. I salute you, Dimebag! I'm also pretty bummed to be hit with the realization that Dick Clark might not be around much longer. There's no such thing as a minor stroke!
On a more mundane topic, it annoys me greatly that with all my bitterness and sarcastic flair, I let someone else beat me to inventing this. And finally, it annoys me that one of my favorite sodas: Canada Dry Cranberry Ginger Ale, is only around for like 2 months out of the year.

I guess that's it, see ya!

Sure, Singapore, that was where they came from. Thanks for looking it up.

After looking it up, I noticed that it said "singapore" right on the box.

Duh?

What? You didn't expect me to read the box did you?

I have yet to do an official post soliciting addresses of livejournal people so I can send them a card, but I've been contacting a few on an individual basis as the mention of sending stuff comes up...I would love to send you a card...e-mail your address to me at lostsatellite(at)gmail(dot)com...

and if I come across any scarves and such that probably won't be used anymore, I will send them your way...

oh, shoot...I forgot to ask about the shooting in Ohio...I haven't heard about it yet...who got killed?...any reason why?...

[identity profile] lostsatellite.livejournal.com 2004-12-09 09:01 am (UTC)(link)
that is some scary and frightening stuff...I wish people who owned guns didn't snap and start killing people and themselves like that...

Dick Clark had a stroke? Actually I know someone who had a minor stroke. She made a full recovery in only a couple of months and is now doing great for herself. Though most people end up being very damaged, physically and mentally when hit by a stoke, some people are ok soon afterward.

Let's hope that's the case. I think they'd have to cancel NYE without Dick Clark...
