[livejournal.com profile] atomicfiction & I having an Epic Cleaning Battle! Java vs. Felix! Mop vs. Vacuum! Scooba Vs. Roomba! Epic Future Kung Fu Cleaning Planetary Action! Yeah- ok, this is what happens when we talk on AIM about Space Peas, Chicago Crotch Monsters, Alien Squids and Kung Foo! Roomba Battles. I won't lie, Felix would kick my ass. :(

Anyway

Tube Toddlers. Not the most original thing ever, but dang they're adorable.

Non-colored Version Here *sigh* Maybe I should just admit I have a problem. I've developed a sorta crush on Cathy... and don't ask about her hands in the grocery doodle *sobs* I don't want to *sniff* talk about it!

This won't end well...

Welcome to the Christmas edition of getting to know your friends.

Okay, here's what you're supposed to do, and try not to be a SCROOGE!!! Just copy this entire and paste into your journal. Change all the answers so that they apply to you. Tis the Season to be NICE!





1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Wrapping paper. I get hardcore fancy with wrapping paper.

2. Real tree or Artificial? Artificial. There's something to be said about having the same exact tree for the past- oh... 20 years. We got a new one this year tho (for... obvious reasons) It's prelit LED! Nice.

3. When do you put up the tree? Anywhere from the day after Thanksgiving to Three days before Christmas.

4. When do you take the tree down? Um... sometime next year? Longest time we had it was until the end of April. I laughed at having a Christmas Tree at my birthday. But honestly- usually day before or after New Years.

5. Do you like eggnog? Kind of. Every year I end up getting sick from it. (Cold Medication + Alcoholic Eggnog = *barf*)

6. Favorite gift received as a child? Duluna got me a Mighty Ducks Tiger Hand held Game (the crappy $7 ones). I got her the same exact thing and shiii- we'd just sit next to each other yelling out stupid stuff at the game and each other. Best Time Ever Period.

7. Hardest person to buy for? My Mother. I can't tell you how often I bought her a gift and then she buys it sometime the week before Christmas. Oh.My.God. Then she just asks for the gift receipt for the item, returns it for a refund and buys something else. :( I don't know what to get her this year AT ALL.

8. Easiest person to buy for? My brother and sis-in-law. I make chocolate dipped biscotti for them... the end.

9. Do you have a nativity scene? Yes? It was my Lola's and was very pretty. I just don't think we have it anymore.

10. Mail or email Christmas cards? Mail. I love to contribute to the bogging down of the Postal System. :D Plus- stamps are awesome.

11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? Duluna got me a Mighty Ducks Tiger Hand held Game...

12. Favorite Christmas Movie? It's a toss up between "White Christmas" and "The Muppet Christmas Carol" OMG I love that Muppet movie SO MUCH shutupIsingthesongallthetime.

13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? Whatever time qualifies as "last minute"

14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? Oh yeah. 1/3rd of the time.

15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Peppermint (candy cane) Anything.

16. Lights on the tree? Yes.

17. Favorite Christmas song? ""Round & Round the Christmas Tree" by Bing Crosby, "Silver Bells" "Percy the Puny Poinsettia" (I can't decide between the three, sorry!)

18. Travel at Christmas or stay home? Home for the Holidays.

19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer's? Prancer, Dancer, Comet, Cupid, Dasher, Vixen, Donner, Blitzen.. and... Rudolph perhaps? I think I missed one...

20. Angel on the tree top or a star? Star. Had a snowman two years ago.

21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning? Depends on if my father is off or not. That's the general Law and Christmas Eve is always spent at My Uncles. Always.

22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? It's not acceptable to call Christmas, Christmas. It must be referred to as Xmas or Holidaymas or VariousReligionTerminologyDay. Also- Christmas doesn't start at the beginning of October, OMG.

23. Favorite ornament theme or color? Glass and/or White, silver. Beautiful.

24. Favorite for Christmas Dinner? Spiced Hot Chocolate?

25. What do you want for Christmas this year? Just for all my friends and family to have a good time and enjoy themselves. It's only once a year.:)

Thanks!

Oh it's worse when various stores have their 'Christmas in July' sale. July =/= Christmas either.

Cathy! Those are such cute pics of her. She's one of the prettiest of the GW ladies.

The Epic Cleaning Battle picture is awesome. It almost makes cleaning seem like fun. ^_^

She is! Not to mention one of the bossiest and independent lol. I'm really starting to like her more and more. Totally out of the blue, I don't know how this happened. D:

If only cleaning was that fun. My house would be spotless.

holy crap, man- now THAT is a battle for the ages. I want those pants. I want that shirt. I WANT YOUR ROOMBA BATTLE SHOES! And fft you'd kick my ass, are you kidding? I'm such a pussy it isn't even funny!

Haha, those pants are totally within your means. Sharpie Markers (for permanent)or gel pens (for... not really permanent) and doodle the hell out of a pair of semi decent jeans!

And I'm wearing Scooba shoes. You've got the Roomba shoes! but yeah- those battle shoes would be awesome in RL. PFFT! You'd kick my ass by whipping out some mystical, space!ninja moves when I least expect it. Pussy or not, you've got the element of surprise.

I'm glad I cheered you up some. Get some tea, get to bed and get better, ok? And stop getting sick! Weren't you sick three days ago? *dramatic sigh*

♥♥♥
