Twas the nights before Christmas

Sparks Of Insanity By Vinny "Bond" Marini Wednesday, December 21, 2011

And it is almost here

Shopping is complete - wait, are you kidding me?  No last minute trips to the mall on Christmas Eve to run over little blue-haired ladies and to curse at a**-hats in the parking lot?

How can this be the season of joy without those things?

Dang internets...taking away all my fun as I scroll the pages on my computer clicking BUY BUY BUY.

But in the same vein, the internets are laughing at me, as the money is not coming out of my pocket...heck, it is all virtual, right?  RIGHT?  RIGHT???

We will be staying home this holiday.  Going to miss the family at this time of year, but will be trying to get them all to Memphis for Christmas 2012...now to build that guest house on the back 40.  WAIT!?  We have a back 40?  Well, no and even if we did, probably would not be building a guest house on it.

Nancy is away until late Thursday, early Friday.  I have off Friday and Monday., then work Tues, Wed, and Thursday.  Then off Friday and Monday and then winging my way to California on the 3rd.

Dang Phfrankie, why are you so dang far from Long Beach!

See now, I think this would be a cool Christmas one year...

  2. Merry Christmas Vinny and Nancy. Aww just keep clicking away Vinny, it'll all come back to you some day right, RIGHT?

     
  3. Travis Cody Says:
  4. We will be at our local mall on Saturday night...but not for last minute shopping. It's our annual tradition of people watching. We love it.

    My holiday this year is confined to just this weekend. We're way too busy at work. And I have to work on 12/31 as it has been declared a shipping day. Go figure.

    But I'll pick up some comp time in January, so actually it will all come back to me.

    Merry Ho Ho Ho!

     
  5. Unknown Says:
  6. Gotta tell ya: cold and foggy here right now. SoCal is better.

    Merry Christmas all!

     
  7. MICKEY: I will, I will

    TRAVIS: Sorry to hear you have to work on a Saturday. I am sure you will find a perfect day for that comp time

    PHFRANKIE: So, drive down to visit!

  11. Merry Xmas! I am going to my boyfriend's mum's this year... she's lovely but it won't be right.

    Did a little bit of shopping today and it was BUSY but I enjoyed it.

     
  12. Mimi Lenox Says:
  13. Happy Holidays to you and yours.
    You will have a perfect Christmas even if family is away this time. Much to look forward to next year.

    Merry Christmas!

     
  14. Dianne Says:
  15. Merry Christmas buddy
    and all the best to Nancy and all the family
    and hugs from Hope

     
  16. I shop nearly exclusively online. That Amazon Prime membership more than pays for itself with this family. :)

    I hope you and the family had a wonderful and blessed Christmas. Safe travels to you and Nancy.
