A very thoughtful friend of mine always includes cat toys in the holiday packages she sends out, and to show her how much they were enjoyed, I grabbed the camera and took pictures of Fry being introduced to his new treats. First up, the blue catnip mouse (it's barely visible here, since it was immediately engulfed):

Off to bed, visions of sugarplums and all that good stuff. Later! :)

One of my faves, made better with Muppets. Ganked from morgaine_nicely.

Hey kiddos!

spastasmagoria and I would like to wish everyone out there in Internet World a very Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas. I managed to squeeze in a quick doodle.

It's been an interesting year, and hopefully, 2010 (!) will be better.

May you be blessed by the Holiday Dalek with celebration and jubilation and not extermination, may you stuff your faces with a delicious feast, and may you not be disappointed by this year's Holiday Special!

I'm going to go eat a cheeseburger.

♥,

And a Happy Friday to everyone who doesn't! :D

I know I'm being spotty in terms of replying to comments and PMs (I've read 'em all and deeply appreciate them. I'm just in Flake Mode right now . . . and I'm not talking about snow!), but instead of doing the useful thing and replying to people, I'm gonna do a Life Roundup Post, since it seems appropriate on a holiday.

( Random natter, Unintentional Chainmail Comedy, and a crock-pot recipe under the cut. )

(Image ganked shamelessly from here. You got a problem with that, save it for the Airing of Grievances. Nyah.)

I'm gonna miss these three, I have to say. They're always so cute in interviews.



Also: RTD is a freaking HUGE person. Just sayin'.

(ETA - Hey, it's my anti-birthday today! I never thought of it that way before . . . XD )

Thanks to witchsistah over on foc_u. Perfect skewering of movie cliches, AND completely Potter-savvy to boot.

Yeah, this pretty much sums up the ol' place:

"Against nudtiy ban, Ore. gallery takes it all off."

FWIW, I never went traipsing about in the buff while I lived there, nor is it perhaps as common as the article makes it sound, but yeah, it's a pretty laid-back place. Possibly this explains some things about my personality. Or not. ;)

Well, that was a way to blow a morning. Ganked from astrogirl2.

If it suits you, arrange a playlist however you prefer and then allow it to randomly select a song in answer to each question.

You Are a Cranberry and Popcorn Strung Tree

Christmas is all about showcasing your creative talents. From cookies to nicely wrapped presents, your unique creations impress everyone.

Heh. Have a badly scorched pan I need to clean (long story), and for the life of me I couldn't remember if you were supposed to boil either water and baking soda (base) or water and vinegar (acid) in it to take off the burnt-on crud. My inability to remember which was yet another sign of approaching dementia, I figured.

So, off to Google . . . where I found a link that said, hey, you can use *either one*. No wonder my brain was offering up both possibilities. XD I guess you just have to take the pH away from neutral or something, and it doesn't matter in which direction. But it's nice to know my memory isn't *that* scrambled -- yet. :D

. . . Have a Frozen [Han] Solo Chocolate Bar.

So help me, that's *really* what it is.

(Sorry, I'll try to read my f-list tomorrow; didn't really manage it today. Dunno what's up with my head. I suspect I just need sleep.)

Posted largely for countessaleska, in case she hasn't seen them; the slideshow is here.

I'm impressed -- the dude can do a full lotus. With skates on, no less. :)

(Thanks yet again to The Park Bench -- also my source for the new EoT trailer, BTW.)

Embedded under the cut, for spoilery goodness:

( I'm really getting jazzed about this . . . )
