Eight Chocolate-covered Caramels For All!
Wait, those are Milk Duds, not milk maids...
This entry could be subtitled: a chocolate hat for Chocolate City.
This year's haul:
- $3000 in Christmas bonuses.
- A $90 (guessing) Christmas dinner I let spoil in the trunk of my car (the pecan pie and two bottles of wine were salvaged)
- A Crock-Pot slow cooker
- A 4-quart Teflon™-coated pot.
- as many navel oranges as I cared to eat for a fortnight at work (Don't ask how many were eventually thrown out.)
- $25 gift card to Academy (the sports store, not Dr. B's RPG), for the express purpose of getting new athletic shoes. ($25 is sooooo not going to cover it.)
- A summer sausage, some Ritz crackers and hot mustard, and a little decorative crate of liquor-filled chocolates, which was later exchanged for a complete auto detailing kit.
This was from the $20 gift bit at the company party. Dangit, Lewis. I wanted those knives!
- 4 Christmas cards, one of which came on the heels of a $20 donation to Greg Dean, the man who designed what to this day remains the best small-scale customized home I've ever seen in Ultima Online
- A set of kitchen knives to replace the box Lewis stole from me (after I stole them from Kurt) at the company party....actually, I bought that straight up.
- Some blue and gold M&M's from the M&M World in Times Square
- An adjustable Hershey's Chocolate bar color cap, with the Hershey's Times Square logo.
(My parents went to NYC Tuesday after TubaChristmas.)
- A $30 gift card to BW3 (from Michael & Brandy)
- A blue & gold reversible winter-ish vest
- A badly-needed new pair of black slacks
- A weather radio, with a TV and lights.
- A Wii
- A new computer
- A full set of cutlery, including a cleaver and perhaps a meat tenderizer and garlic press
- Complete Outlaw Star on DVD
- An iPod
- a DVD player
Except LehvakLah: Happy Hannukah.
...and Tufi Piyufi: *insert generic good wishing* Festivus.
And, since it's actually timely now:
Happy New Year
