I totally got called out for failing to properly express my joy in a gift . . . it was a fucking flag, to fly on the porch. Because screams screams "6'5", 250 pound, bearded, possible alcoholic" other than a flag.
Gah.
And I'm pretty sure anyone we sent a card to received the card after Christmas.
You need a square for hunting for that gift you know you bought but can't remember where you hid it. I was sure my husband tossed the box in the trash because it had polo shirts in it & didn't weigh very much.
I watched a Supernatural marathon while wrapping gifts. I got away pretty easy on everything else though. I do always hide gifts so well that there are some I won't find until July.
Like Julie, I had to take a brief sabbatical from the interweb (sabbatical=I'm very fancy and important). Like Julie, I missed reading your words super duper big time.
brilliant!
ReplyDeletehaha, love it.
ReplyDeleteI would be an EXPERT at this game.
ReplyDeletethe deviled egg/olives/caramel corn breakfast cracked me up. WORD, SISTA.

I win because I was wrapping gifts Christmas morning while my kid pounded on my door.
ReplyDeleteAlso l'm late to events year round so I always get that square.

ReplyDeletevery clever. i love them all but especially the "joke" about the spouse's family.
ReplyDeletei am also laughing at John and GrandeMocha's comments. so much clever on one blog. i love coming here.
Damn, woman! You captured the spirit of my holiday. I watched "Heathers: the 20th anniversary special edition" on Christmas.

ReplyDeleteHahha I win/lose, because a lot of these apply to me. Thank goodness for the drink space
ReplyDeleteSeriously.
ReplyDeleteI always hit January with at least 48 wallet-sized pictures of my kids I failed to unload in Xmas cards.
Crap.
But embiggen is my new favorite word.
So there's that.
XOXO
And I've missed you in my brief interweb sabbatical. Glad to see you haven't gone changin'.
As soon as I teach my cats how to play bingo, shit's gonna get real.
ReplyDeleteLike Julie, I had to take a brief sabbatical from the interweb (sabbatical=I'm very fancy and important). Like Julie, I missed reading your words super duper big time.
ReplyDeleteExcellent. Especially 'click to embiggen'
ReplyDelete*raises hand* Late for everything.
ReplyDeleteThis was brilliant!
Also, I think I love GrandeMocha (kids pounding on door while she wrapped)!
ReplyDeleteYeah, so I am guilty of at least half of those. Cheers!
