Everyone have a good Christmas? I did. My kids were practically bouncing off the walls the entire day. The dolls were a hit. Rock Band 2 was a hit with the adults. Ahem. Me. I love it. The kids played with my brother (on No Fail mode) and I laughed at how bad he sang. And I thought some of the Karaoke folks I’ve heard were bad. I tried the drums, bass and guitar. I am actually good at the guitar. It is really very very fun. I gave The Beatles RB game to the hubby, but we haven’t played it yet. We are still trying to learn how to play. (He was teasing me that he expected 100% accurate….yeah, not gonna happen.)

Got a weird message today. Someone on Facebook wrote a reply to something I sent to my ex-bf–a Christmas Greetings card I sent out to all my entire FB list. The message was rude…asking if I liked him or something, and that he was married…then called me a stalker. Wow. I’m a stalker for sending a Christmas card on FB? Amazing. Uh, no. Hardly. Of all the people in the world to stalk, he’d be the least likely candidate. Pfft…please.

Saturday I am going to Build a Bear Workshop with the kids. My brother is treating them. He offered me to do it too, but I have 2 already, and they get stolen by the kids. LOL I get them back eventually–sans the clothes.It will be a fun day out. Anything for the kids right?

I’m not overly chatty lately.It is partly the holiday and partly from allergies flaring up. Went to the doctor’s today and everything is fine. I didn’t even have elevated BP, which is always good. So I must be handling things okay.

Tomorrow night I have quite the spread planned. Got cheese and then chocolate fondue on the menu, which is a lot of fun. I did it last year and the kids loved it. Heck, I liked it.

I still have to wrap some presents before tomorrow night.I guess I will do some tonight once the kids go to bed. I really don’t want to do it all tomorrow night.

The kids are so excited for Christmas. They are balls of pure adrenaline. The Wii helps a little. I had to go out and get a SkipDr to fix a few of the Wii game discs yesterday just so they had those to play with. LOL I will be glad once they get their gifts. I love watching them get all happy opening presents on Christmas morning.

I ordered Rock Band 2 through Gamestop the other day. I expect it to be delivered tomorrow. At least I hope it comes by tomorrow. (It should be delivered today.) It was my splurge for the family this year. I bought The Beatles game to go with it too.

The day after Christmas we are going to take the kids to Build a Bear, my brother’s treat. That should be fun. The girls love BABW.

That’s it for now. I am going to take some more Benadryl and rest.

If you have a weak stomach, you are warned. This is pretty gross…but damn funny.

A classic Christmas song by the King of Rock ‘n Roll, Elvis Presley—Blue Christmas.

Yes, a music video because I am too lazy to write a full post.

My two babies, Angel the dog and Mittens the kitty, playing together. Yes, they sleep together…sometimes. I think Angel bides her time to wait until I am not looking…

And AM, I am not the crazy cat lady. So what if she rides on my shoulder walking around the house and out to the van….and while driving to the vet…and home again. Not Polly wants a cracker…  Oh yeah, make the pussy jokes….

No wait, in Lady Sheba, Set calls Kat a nickname….Pussy Girl! My ex-fiance had a good laugh about that one saying something like, “Now that is a superheroine I want to see!” I had let him read the book as I wrote it. No, we weren’t together at the time. We found each other online a few years ago, and we still chat. I see him mostly on FB. He’s a big doof.

He is funny…and better off married to someone else. I like him better as a friend now than a lover then, even though there was something about him that just got to me. Can’t explain what it was. One of those smacked in the gut reactions. He was not handsome by any means (sorry John) but he had magnetism. That sense of I-have-to-touch-him-somehow type reactions. I loved holding his hand and just being held.   1–2–3  Awww.

I had a few boyfriends in the past, but I was never the one-night-stand type. I don’t see how sex can mean anything without love. Probably why I like romance so much. Had 3 serious relationships in my life, and they were one right after another. I broke up with my HS sweetheart (The Jerk), and took me a year to sample the dating pool again. First date: John. Then a few years of ups and downs, I broke up with him. (We broke up several times over the years, but the final time was me.) Two months later I met Mark…a frat brother of a friend’s bf…in a bar…playing darts…  Got engaged two weeks later. No, really. Shocker was I said yes.

So going back to the pussy joke. Er…Pussy Girl, probably not a good name. (Right up there with Pussy Galore.)

Meow. LOL
