Love that shot of Buffy in her apartment with her big kitty! I love what she's done with the place. Looks like she's warming up some tea!

I got my semester grades back today and it is a good day.

That's great news on the grades, KC. Way to go!

And you well know how much Buffy loves the apartment mod you made for her!

Mount Everest. This is an amazing picture. You can pan around and zoom way in. There are buildings in that picture. Can you find them?

And if you look close enough, you can see Mustard bombing down the side.

That was awesome...I absolutely love that...

Is it cheating if you already knew where to look?... ...

(I had a pretty mega obsession with getting to Everest at one point. Not to go up it, you understand, just to it... ...This means something!! Richard Dreyfuss eat yer heart out!!...)

Urk, is Buffy the dinner this tiger is thinking of eating? GAAAAAH!

[Uleni Athram]

Its good that the holidays started. No more head-aching school for me! Winter vacay for the yay, haha! Its been awhile though, hasn't it? More so than would be expected from the Ghost That Returns.

Meh. Real life, what can I say?

So.. since the world didn't end at 21, how have you been, Chorrol? More updates from stories both familiar and new, I'd wager.

I have just wrapped a tree. It’s a little taller than the Christmas tree, so it’s not going to make it under there with the rest of the presents. It’s kind of beside.

This is my best gift wrapping triumph ever.

Who asked for a tree? Or is this a total surprise?

[Grits]

It’s for The Girl’s room, a total surprise. She is going to be astonished. It’s perfect. I can’t wait for her to get up! Everyone is still asleep here. I had to go retrieve electronics last night since they were still awake. I could tell when I watched Aravi’s video and it was slow to load that there was after-hours internet activity going on in my house.

[King Coin]

Hmm... Anybody sneaking more science videos?

I hope you share The Girl's reaction to getting a tree for Christmas.

[Acadian]

Grits, that sounds like a real feat of Christmas wrapperie! Is it a real or pretend tree? What kind? I have several pretend trees in the house and really like them. This time of year they each have a strand of lights on them.

[Grits]

He’s learned not to watch funny videos, because I can hear him in there laughing!

It’s a pretend tree, pure white aspen with three trunks in a white pot with little white stones. Her room is a vibrant shade of green best described as “Dear God That’s Green,” and most other things in there are white. It’s going to look awesome as soon as we get The Boy away from Halo 4 and Mr. Grits back from wherever he went to play with his new sword so they can move it. (It’s a practice sword. I expect he’s out in the garage hitting things.) Lights is a great idea!

The Girl’s first reaction was a squeak of excitement when she realized that the giant red cylinder had her name on it. That’s when I suggested that she spit out her gum. (Santa found some sugarless Juicy Fruit for the kids with braces.) It took some doing to make a hole in the paper, and then she made a gasp that took all of the air out of the room! That reaction was my Christmas present. It’s hard to pull off a surprise these days!

My other favorite present is the headset for The Boy. Blissful silence while he’s gaming, at least until he gets online and starts swearing at his friends. I should have done this ages ago!

A snapshot from the Christmas couch:

Mr. Grits: *eyeballs a newly opened game* “Is that an M rating?”

The Boy: “No, it’s a W.”

The Girl: *turns box sideways* “It’s E for Everyone.”

[Acadian]

Lol. I was chuckling all the way through the Grits Christmas morning! The tree sounds great and pulling it off as a surprise is pretty remarkable.

My presents included a new pair of running shoes, a cel phone (my first!) and some goodies from the most important food group. Chocolate is much more important than the other lesser food groups of pizza and beer.

Glad it was such a great Christmas! Lol at the game rating discussion.
