I've always wondered if slap chops are decent.

PS, I got my secret santa present, but my fiance's too lazy to find his camera right now, so I'll put a picture up in a bit.

You know, sure...I'm looking forward to getting my gift and all, but honestly? I get SUCH a thrill out of people liking MY gifts to them that it's like receiving a gift myself! That probably sounds sappy and twee, but it's true!

I'm in SUCH a good mood now that I know Lgg got my uh...first gift. :unsure:

My gift got sent!

I was nasty sick this week so I was worried it would be late, but the UPS guy hung out waiting for _15 minutes_ just so it would go today.

They say it'll be there the 15th, I know they lie, but it'll be there soon! =)

Montreal Interviewer: "What do you have in common with each other?"

Peachey: "We're REALLY weird."

Montreal Interviewer (incredulously to me): "Do you agree with that?"

<I think back to several days before the interview. Driving through the country, passing a field with cows...>

Peachey: "MOOOO! MOOOOO! Does this make me weird?"

Me: "No, well yes. Here, let me roll down the windows so they can hear you better!"

Peachey: "MOOOOO!!!!"

<back to interview>

Me: "Yes, yes I do."

I am a lucky girl, that's for sure, Wyatt! I will post SS Part Deux!

So, so very nice and Xmasy.

Don't you all think? We all nice Canadians going through our Visa process to be with our spouses and we make friends here and do nice things?

I find it sweet and endearing and makes me think that people are pretty good!

Sorry. I'll stop now.

:)

You like nuts a bit too much.

That is all.

Sheesh... I think the SS gift I bought is ok, but it's nothing compared to a slap chop... and I doubt it'll get this kind of reaction. Way to wreck the curve Wyatt... :crying:
