Happy birthday to both [livejournal.com profile] hammerhead22 and [livejournal.com profile] tennlady. I hope today is fantastic for both of you.

Thank you to [livejournal.com profile] jaciesplace. The card is gorgeous and yeah, very sparkly *g* And not forgetting [livejournal.com profile] ninjetti75. Josh, your package came this morning and just, thank you. You made me all sniffley in a good way. I've been good and put the presents under the tree but you know I think the same. Love you, hon. *hugs you tight*

We went grocery shopping earlier and my goodness people are insane! We queued to park, queued to get into the shop, had to navigate hundreds of people who were shopping for what looked like an army ( the bread in particular was madness, do people really need dozens of loaves? ) Then to top it all we had to queue for 90 minutes to get to the tills. We picked a poor aisle to queue up in too. We started next to the fish fingers and lets just say I now know more about fish fingers than I wanted to. We then shuffled to the prawns and good grief, everyone and their dog wanted to be at the prawns. Of course no one in the queue could move so a tiny space was made between the trolleys for the prawn people. After about 45 minutes things got exciting when we reached the jellies, custard and frozen party food. What joy! No more fish! It was at this point a woman came past with a trolley full of buns. Now there'd been none when we were in the bread aisle and we needed some, so when James suggested he'd create a diversion and I could swipe some I was tempted to do just that ;) But I was good and let her go mainly because my attention had been grabbed by something else. Frog jelly moulds. I stood and looked at them for twenty minutes, they were so green and cute. Soon I'd convinced myself I needed them even though I really didn't at all and within seconds they were in the trolley. At this point we'd reached the chicken pies and I was so thirsty I was tempted to lick the ice from the box. Thankfully before I showed myself up we were at the front of the queue! YAY! At this point James stood in the space behind the till and where the queue started and really if anyone had queue jumped at that point I would have feared for their lives.

But we're home now. The freezer stuff is away and we've just watched Elf so all is good.

hey baby.

I have a box for you. It's right over there *points across room* However, since we got over 2 feet of snow in under 2 days and I'm still not feeling the best, you're box won't go out until next week. I tried to get Dad to take it for me today, but since it had to go to the Post Office and needed a Customs form, he refused. *pouts*

Forgive me?

I'm actually surprised [livejournal.com profile] turps33 got that card already. I just sent it off on Saturday. And of course if you'd like one, too, email me your addy. There are enough sparkly cards to go around, you know! I just mailed a couple out to people who had posted their addys.

[identity profile] ravenbat.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
well if you are moving soon, you can send me a card after you move, how's that?

*hugs*

[identity profile] jaciesplace.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
Of course! Actually, I'm not moving. I use a PO box because I swear I'm on a postal training route. Several times a year I get other people's mail and a lot of my mail seems to go missing. And they can't seem to close my mail box so the mail often gets wet if it rains or snows that day. I got tired of it, so I use I PO box now. I'm just trying to get a closer one, if one comes available.

When did you sneak off and get a Chris icon? Or have I just never noticed it before? How could I not notice that?

*smooches*

[identity profile] ravenbat.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 06:08 am (UTC)(link)
lol. I've got lots of Chris icons, okay not lots, about 10 or so.

[identity profile] jaciesplace.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
Cool! Everyone should have a Chris icon. Or 10! ;)

[identity profile] ravenbat.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
yupyup they should...

actually I think I said a few months ago that everyone should have a FuLaC icon or at least a chastrick one.

I got those too. lol.




....yes, terri, we're spamming your journal, but we're discussing chris iconage and using the icons, so I know you won't mind.....

BTW, I've missed seeing you around. It's great to see you posting again!

[identity profile] ravenbat.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
I'm feeling better again *finally* and hopefully I can start staying up a little late again so I'm not missing out on everything here in LJ land.

I've miss you all so very very much it isn't funny.

[identity profile] jaciesplace.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better!

I haven't hardly been able to sleep the last 2-3 nights. I'm so tired, but I can't seem to sleep, which really sucks! I really wanted naptime at work!

[identity profile] ravenbat.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 06:44 am (UTC)(link)
I haven't had any choice but to rest, the pain killers knocked me out cold for awhile there. Except days when they'd knock me out for an hour or two then I'd wake up from the pain returning. those days sucked.

now if I could get it to quit snowing, I'd be happy.

I hope you get some rest hon. *hugs*

[identity profile] jaciesplace.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 06:53 am (UTC)(link)
We were supposed to get 3-5" of snow Wednesday afternoon. We got none. The weather guessers forecasters got it wrong. Imagine that!

Thanks, I'm going to try to get some sleep. I still have to work a full day, then pack, clean the house and take kitty to the sitters then get. I'll probably get no sleep tomorrow night either *sigh*

*hugs and snuggles*

[identity profile] jaciesplace.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 06:55 am (UTC)(link)
Apparently I'm too tired to finish a sentence *grin*. I have to get up at 3am Friday to catch a 6am flight. Why even bother sleeping?

[identity profile] ravenbat.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
aww.

try to sleep honey.

*hugs*

Have a wonderful holiday and I'll talk to you when you get back home.

We've gotten 2 feet of snow in the last 36 hours, that's on top of the snow we already had. It's still coming down and the "guessers" here are saying that it's not stopping until Monday. blech. Makes me want to call Mother Nature up and say WTF?

[identity profile] jaciesplace.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 07:02 am (UTC)(link)
2 feet of snow in 36 hours? OMG! *WTF* is right!

I hope you have a wonderful holiday too! It's driving me nuts that I won't be home when SeSa goes live, but at least I'll have plenty of new stories to read when I get home!

Stay healthy and warm! *smooches*

[identity profile] ravenbat.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 07:08 am (UTC)(link)
I'll think of you when I stay up way too late reading them. lol.

Thanks for hosting the spam party, Terri!

she's going to wake up, see all the emails in her inbox and think "weh?" and then hopefully she'll see all the lovely icons we spammed with and all will be well.

anyway.. you go to bed. I'm going to bed now too. It's after 2am and I'm be "awoken" at 8am. eww.

*hugs you both*

LOL.

I wondered why I woke up with a sore spot and a glittery journal.

I'm glad you had fun *g*

[identity profile] ravenbat.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 03:36 pm (UTC)(link)
*giggles*

Awww.. sorry about the sore spot. ;) Least we weren't pinching, right?

and there's never anything wrong with a glittery journal. hee hee.

Thanks for letting us play. We tried to clean up. Well, everything except the glittery stuff! ;)

And I very much doubt your story is sucky. I'm really looking forward to reading it.

Okay, lets look at the facts.

Two of my favourite people chatting and Chris icons. What's to mind about? :)

[identity profile] ravenbat.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 03:39 pm (UTC)(link)
sounds like a wonderful combination to me!

Um, just one word:

Of course I do!

Especially as I have one for you too which is wrapped and ready to go but just hasn't yet :(

I've missed you, honey. I've been reading yours and Jacie's comments so know how sick you've been. Are you feeling better now?

[identity profile] ravenbat.livejournal.com 2004-12-23 03:40 pm (UTC)(link)
aww. you didn't have to do that.

I'm feeling about 98% better than I was this time last week. Which is almost "normal" for me. I keep telling myself not to overdue and have it all start up again.
