Christmas Eve, 2007.

I have to get 20 hours worth of stuff done by 7 PM, so this will be quick: Merry Christmas! #24 is up! I hate stuffing mushrooms! The final AC entry may be a bit late, but since those are usually short epilogues, we'll be okay.


Hope everyone has a great Christmas Eve, Day, Day After and Day After The Day After. Talk about your holiday adventures in the comments, from gifts to guests to food to reindeer.

matt-my new tradition is reading about the stuffed mushroom fiasco on Christmas Eve.
We just did extended family dinner and presents and it was great. I am staying in a hotel tonight so I have decided to tell the following lie to my son (who wants nothing from santa but a fish)
He will be presented with a voucher signed by Santa to be presented at a pet shop good for three guppies (his specific request) I hope the pet store employees have a a good sense of humor when I make them take my cash beforehand.

I would have watched A Christmas Story, but I was in the middle of Rudolph and you don’t just cut off Rudolph! Besides, I’m saving A Christmas Story until tomorrow.

I hope the party is going well matt.

We just got done with christmas eve with the wife’s parents. We watched muppet christmas, and emmit the otter. Now we just did the christmas eve single gift exchange and she is happy with the bootleg copy of the life and advantures of santa clause I got on line. It was a favorite of her’s as a kid. She got me sake…it’s a win win.

Why is that Ginger bread man’s son’s voice so deep?

Mom is cooking a Christmas dinner. We may go to a movie. Or just sit around and play whatever new games we get. I’m sure I’ll pop up around here sometime tomorrow.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, EVERYONE!

Matt: That ruled so hard… That words crumble in attempts to describe its rule-ness. I’m glad that Hssxxlllo is sticking around, he’s a cool guy. Anyone else think that retired santa is gonna be schlepping around the world this year?

Merry Christmas everyone! :-)

It’s nice to know that there are other people out there who also visit websites on Christmas Eve.

Ho! Ho! Ho! Hopefully Santa (Lego, Playmobile, or other) is good to all of you.

Oh yeah, sorry for the double post, but I gotta say. I LOVE THE CHI-PET. Thanks for the photo update Matt. Merry Christmas.

Who is going to watch a Christmas Story with me right now?

Chestnuts roasted by dohopoki @ 12/25/2007 1:02 AM

Have it on as I track Santa, right now he is in Iowa!

So who else would like to randomly hear from our Advent friends in say… like the middle of the year. Maybe we could get an update around The 4th of July 8)

Track santa? what??

Chestnuts roasted by dohopoki @ 12/25/2007 1:18 AM

Merry Christmas, everybody!

Chestnuts roasted by Chris Martin @ 12/25/2007 1:44 AM

dohopoki I’m still watching A Christmas Story with you right now. I don’t know how much longer I can last without sleep though. I’m fading fast.

Right now he is in Guatamala, after spending more than the standard ten minutes in Cancun.

Hope he can ride that sleigh after taking an extended stay in Margaritaville!

You know what has always bugged me about A Christmas Story? When Ralphie gets his essay (theme?) back in class, the hand writing on it looks very un-teacher like. The words are written in all capitals and aren’t spaced correctly.

“listen jerk, when I tell you to come, you better come!”

Remember a couple years ago when FX did 24 hours of Jingle All the Way? I think someone watched a little too much Conan O’Brien. Jingah ah thah wah!

I keep thinking she used the wrong your too but I think it’s the e in eye that gives the illusion.

Chestnuts roasted by dohopoki @ 12/25/2007 2:21 AM

Merry Christmas Everybody!!!! It’s 12:21 AM here so it is actually Christmas day!

We are sleeping in and then opening presents and having traditional waffles. Then we’re having a big dinner at 4:30 or so. It should be a great day. I might check in sometime, we’ll see. If not, MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!

Joyeux Noël, everyone.

Chestnuts roasted by Tom @ 12/25/2007 2:24 AM

doho, I’m watching now! It’s just about to wrap up and start again. Or was, when I started this post.
Just got back from the festivities at my aunt’s house, where the tamales, pozole, buñelos (sp?) and tequila were in ready supply, as always. I was talked into a shot of Patron Silver that I regretted for about five minutes, but now that I’m back home I’m wishing I had a whole bottle. That is smooth stuff…You guys should have seen the look on everyone’s face when I admitted that I’d bought some tamales at the bakery.
It’s still a little early over here, but Merry Christmas to all! And to all a good night :)

Why is that Ginger bread man’s son’s voice so deep?

If it’s that Go Phone ad, I have no idea why they cast Norn MacDonald as the son and Steve Buschemi as the dad. Norm obviously sounds older. And that brings up the question of why Norm was shilling a cell phone to begin with? I thought he would be above such things.

Buschemi I can understand, but not Norm.

Waiterbot Could Sing Better Than This!

Chestnuts roasted by Moony @ 12/25/2007 2:46 AM

Home…drunk…full… proud owner of new DVDs…and an octopus lamp…can’t wait for the fallout thread… can’t wait to fall down…

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 12/25/2007 2:59 AM

Who is going to go to bed with me right now?

Chestnuts roasted by dohopoki @ 12/25/2007 3:01 AM

The same octopus lamp from the shell shanty? Yes, please.
