Clouds of Fluff

I feel so close to you now. (Seriously, happy 5th anniversary of the life changing event!)

Wendy, that is so heart-breaking...I know there must be many, many more stories like that...even more heart-breaking. What a wonderful thing they are doing. Just saw this on the Second City site...pics from the festivities: http://www.secondcity.com/24hour/index.htm

The Grinch and A Christmas Story are definately up there. I think Lammy mentioned it, but Scrooged is a classic in our family. It's my favorite for comedy, but It's A Wonderful Life is truly a classic for the pure sap/holiday spirit factor.

If you're looking for some answers Well you've come to the wrong place You might find lines, but no valentines Written all over my face I bear no grudge, I wear no frown I just come with calloused hands And I don't mean to bring you down but There is no romance. I've spent too much of my life waiting Hoping, dreaming, wishing, believing, And way too little of it living Smashing it up and taking and giving I wish someone had warned me While I was still a young man And saved me lots of time and money There is no romance. No romance, no romance, no romance, no romance No romance, no romance,

Not crazy at all. If money were no object...I would go to Auckland just to see my two favorite artists in the span of a week (Wilco...and for Wendy's info, CH ...how fun would that be?! )...and get some serious Kiwi-esque sight seeing on in between gigs!

Hope it's a really good one!

(just by a few months) Hope it's a and a day!

Snodgrass! (Thanks for posting this...I'm going to take advantage of that 5 for deal real soon like!)

Happiest of Days, Liz! It's been so great meeting you this year...hope to see you again some time soon. I hope you get internet/computer for yer berzday so you can join us nuts at VC! LOL Have a wonderful time at the show.

Edie, I'll admit, I was stumped!

Sorry, guys...1 was false. 2 & 3 are true!

1) I spent part of my childhood in Alaska and actually like whale blubber. 2) I was once held at gunpoint by 4 police officers on the suspicion of burglary. 3) I have a stranger's eyes.

Hope you are having a wonderful day! Another 25 year old I'm so happy I got to meet in Little Rock!

Thanks so much for directing me to this! I had no intention of participating in this insanity that is Black Friday, but I caved at this. Got The National and Bettye LaVette. Can't wait. Also found the Otis Redding DVD on sale I've been wanting...oh, and the David Gray greatest hits! Guess hubby and I's stocking stuffers are taken care of. Hmm, guess I should start thinking of someone else now.

Hope it's a good one!

It's your birthday Sisooie! Let's partay! (I'll leave the broom solo to someone more qualified! ) Hope it's a day free of work, and full of the happiest of stuff! It was so great meeting you in Little Rock!

Hope it's a fantabulous day!

these recipes!!! :droolzville I love my Mom's dressing...always look forward to it. (And it's the kind you bake in the oven...me no likey stuffing from the bird.) I'm looking forward to sweet potatoes (I mash them with butter and put a topping of brown sugar, butter, cinnamon and yes, corn flakes on top!) and turkey too...and pumpkin pie with my little Grandma's pie crust. I enjoy eating with my side of the family 'cos they like the pickled stuff that my guys at home don't ...calamatta olives, spicy pickles, and of course black olives...imagining Alissa with black olives on all five

I love this thread. Thanks so much for sharing the photies, all! Such beautiful kiddos, pets, and peeps! I also have much to be thankful for. First and foremost, "my guys": Aidan (as Anakin Skywalker this Halloween, the scratch is fake ): Aidan and Adam: I've been really blessed this year to have had several roadtrips to see some of my favorite artists in new-to-me places, with some amazing internet friends. I'm grateful for my fam and friends (and our fuzzy babies). I'm thankful for their health and well-being. I'm thankful for the Flint Hills and whatever powers that be t

Recently, seem to be addicted to: Measuring Cups ~ Andrew Bird Into The Sunset ~ Neil Finn When The Roses Bloom Again ~ Wilco I Hear Them All ~ Old Crow Medicine Show This Year's Love ~ David Gray
