...And I am waiting for the Mailman to see if any last minute packages arrive which I have ordered off of eBay...gifts for my Mommy. =) ...And, looking to see if I get any more Christmas cards in the mail.
I received a $25 gift card for "Starbucks" during the gift exchange with my fellow bartenders at our Christmas party...and I HATE coffee...and do not even like the hot chocolate from Starbucks. Give me a regular 'ole packet of Swiss Miss with mini-marshmallows mixed with hot water, any day! ;)
SO...I tucked that into a card for my fabulous mailman...who has trucked zillions of packages up to my front door this past year...all of my hard-won bounty from eBay, and assorted other vendors.
That poor man has muddled thru the muck, torrential downpours, the snow and ice, and suffered the blistering St. Louis Summers to deliver the mail to my door...and I feel so sorry for him! LOL...
However, he HAS arrived at times when I have just gotten out of the shower, and I have to run to the door in my towel, in order to sign for something...LMAO...I keep telling him it is not intentional!
...Hold on...there he is now!... (Quick! I have to get into my towel! Hee-hee... ;)
Okay, I just gave him his card, and a festive holiday package of blue M&M's...and I am now happily munching of some of the yummy "Haribo Peachie" gummy candy-thingies which I ordered for my mom.

But, hey!...It was a 5 POUND BAG! No way does she need that much candy! And...Mmmm...are they ever fabulous!
(And they had better be...@ $30 for the candy, and then an additional $18 for shipping...ughhh...However, she cannot find them around here...and so it follows, nothing is too good for my Mommy! ;)
However, now I am going into sugar-shock from it all. Oy-Vey!
Boomer JUST went off on his Christmas shopping journey...it is noon on Christmas Eve...LOL...good luck!
Last night, Boomer watched his all-time fave Seinfeld episode (which, is his all-time fave sit-com, BTW.)...and it was, OF COURSE!: The "FESTIVUS" episode! LOL... ;)
"Festivus"...that time of year when you gather your family 'round, and tell them all the ways in which they have disappointed you over the past year! LMAO!...And, boy-oh-boy, does Boomer ever need to do THAT!...
..."It's 'FESTIVUS' for the REST OF US!!!" ;)
I am sitting here, listening to Skittle continue to yip and bark and drive me batty...because she is STILL pissed that the mailman came to the door...ughhh... AND, I am contemplating changing out of my sweats and heading out to the mall, myself.
I really do not have anything I HAVE to buy...yet it is tradition for me..."decking the malls" on Christmas Eve...and I feel like I am missing something...part of the holiday spirit...plus, I could totally go for a hot and buttery pretzel right about now! =)
So, I know that after I finish up here, I am going to point my PINK! Mustang in the direction of the Mall, and I am sure it can drive itself there by now!
Tonight I will finish-up my wrapping, as I listen to Christmas music on the satellite...and sip away on my yummy Blackberry Merlot Arbor Mist! (Hey, sometimes I AM a cheap date! ;) ...And I am going to seal-shut this huge bag of little gummy peachy things right now, before I mow my way thru all 5 pounds of them! Yeek.
Tomorrow is my day of running hither and yon...(and let's not forget "to and fro"! ;)...doing the family-thing at my parents' and at Boomer's Mom's and then to his Dad's...
It's gonna be a LOOONNNNGGGGG day!
~**Merry Christmas to all ...(Oh, and Happy Hanukkah, too! =) ...and to all a GOOD NITE!**~
