This book cover could very well be based on a picture of me, circa 1995.
Why in god’s name has it been so long since your last post?

(You thought that said “vagina”, didn’t you! Clearly you’ve been reading this blog too much.) OK FINE people, I’ll admit it: thanks to your outpouring of xmas-y guest posts, comments, and gchats, it has recently come to my attention that I like more things about xmas than I originally thought I did.

It’s like that time Charlie Brown finally learned what xmas is all about. (Except I’m probably more of a Peppermint Patty.) Anyway, let’s see what you guys came up with!

If my festive xmas post left you feeling grumpier than a Walmart employee on December 26, you should enjoy this rebuttal from Shannon (See Fig. 1).

It has recently come to my attention (read: the office xmas tree just got assembled) that it is now officially that time of year known as “xmastime” (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 2).

Get the picture?
