Christmasing
Ah, buggrit, Amazon seems to feel today that I do not need to use the search function, because it knows exactly what I want. Amazon is wrong. Today I’m looking for a couple of entirely new things—the first, obscenely expensive season Star Trek TOS from all of us kids to Dad, and a yet-unrevealed Mystery Item for my brother,* which the store I was damn sure it was at does not carry.
If this keeps up I may go off to Barnes and Noble to get it, despite their failure to use the word “Christmas” enough.
Anyway! I’ve got half the dolls changed into X-mas gear, including Laurel, whose dress surrendered after a valiant fight.** We’ve got a good spot for their puny tree. Now I just need to get some fairy lights for the room, and things will be all set!
*My brother has been known to read this blog, but Dad never does.
**The surrender was not unconditional. I had to concede the sleeves.

I think I love you. ^_^ Seriously, sometime when you feel like running away again, tell me and I'll snag my BFF and we'll go have an adventurethon.

Now, one of my bosses is redesigning her husband's bathroom to have Star Trek decorations as a surprise/Christmas present while he's gone for this coming weekend. She's got a card for the people who are helping her to sign. It says "To go where no man has gone before."
I ended up thinking about it, then bursting into distressed laughter and saying something along the lines of "DAMMIT NOW I CAN NEVER WATCH TOS AGAIN AND STAY UNSCARRED BECAUSE I REALLY JUST DO NOT WANT TO THINK ABOUT WILLIAM SHATNER ON THE TOILET."
