If that's happiness, then I'm doomed!

I've been in "happiness" since last week.

Damn straight! Well, that and a $50 Borders gift card.

My boss gave me the second-best gift: chocolate.

No, REAL happiness is a boss that gives you a combination cooler/cup holder/AM/FM radio with wheels and extendable handle. I nearly swooned.
Hey Dad! Guess what you're getting for Christmas!

Hell, that is a pretty cool gift, Matt. Pewrfect for fishing.

Funny you should mention that, Joseph. I'm giving it to my dad for just that reason.

I've been a happy man since last Friday. Got all holiday shopping (for others) on Saturday. I'm still eyeballing some selfish presents today.
Guess I should wait 'til after Christmas Day just so I don't double up.

That's the same problem I'm having, Easycure. $75 in Borders cards and keeping from using them before Thursday.

For once I got lucky. I got cash AND a bottle of expensive Russian vodka.

And all I got was a damn furlough day. I'm jealous! ;)

... AND a bottle of expensive Russian vodka.
Alcohol: the third-best gift.
(I got white wine, and I prefer red, but hey -- it's the thought that counts, right?)

One boss gave me an actual %*#& fruitcake, another gave me money. Guess who's doing her own typing next year?
