joflasherhow happy are my ferrets
they get to play in your branches
and drag your tinsel everywhere
your ornaments, they do steal
your skirt, they rumple quite piecemeal
oh christmas tree, oh christmas tree
how happy are my ferrets
Okay, I really shouldn't take cold medicine at work. If you couldn't tell, we put up our christmas tree this weekend and the ferrets are thrilled. Its like having 2 ft tall two year olds. All the ornaments and lights have to be above a certain height or the rats have them. The floor around the tree is soaked because the little monsters think the tree stand is a swimming pool or something. Dumb rats.
Bah, sick. I blame the Boy. Its all his fault. I forgave him, though, since he made me hot chocolate last night. Hot chocolate is good. Especially with marshmellow fluff on it. Ymmmm.
I have so much shit left to do before Christmas. I'm not going to make this evening's deadline for my work but that's okay, its not my fault. The gui is dead, long live the gui. With any luck, it'll be reincarnated in C.
Still need to send out info on the New Year's Party. Anyone reading this, New Year's Eve Party at my place. That's the 31st from 8 to whenever I kick people out. Probably sometime after 2 or so. If you want to definitely have your name on the "official" email invitations, let me know. If you need a place to crash, we'll have floor space but that's about it.
Standard Jo party rules apply. Let me know if you're coming. Let me know if you are bringing any friends. No friends of friends, please. If I walk up to someone at one of my parties and I don't know them and I don't know who they say they came with, I will throw them out. Don't think I won't. I have big stompy ass kicking boots for just this purpose.
Yes, this is kind'a bitchy, I know. Unfortunately, I've had the party from hell happen where friends of friends invited friends and we ended with a bunch of people no one knew drinking everything in site, stealing over a hundred dollars from the party fund, pouring alcohol in my fish tank (anyone say dead fish?), filling the ferrets' water bottle with tequila, which gave one alcohol poisoning, and stealing the other ferret. Stolen ferret was later recovered by the original friend, who would not give me the name of the bastard that stole her or poisoned the other one. Yes, I'm bitter. I'm also of the "once bitten school". So no second degree strangers.
In case I'm scaring people off, no, this doesn't mean you can't bring people I don't know along. I'm really quite flexible about it. Just warn me first.
We'll be havingstarherd and her boy staying with us from the 23rd to the 1st. Chris and George of the Pittsburgh fame will be with us from the 30th till 4th. Visitation hours start on the 29th, as starherd, myself and our boys will be off in the wilds of Pennsylvania until then. Let me know if you want to set up anything.
Okay, enough brain dribble for one day.
