Re: Gift giving (and getting)

I totally agree about the whole gift giving thing. I know that we have had this conversation before Zoe but those are really good examples.

Acually, I learned all I know about gift giving from my friend Kathleen. Although she does give gifts for birthdays and Christmas, she always manages to get something that is really special and meaningful. It takes time, effort and thought that most people now-a-days just dont feel that they have.

Over Christmas she sent me this hot pink Hockey Night in Canada T-shirt from the CBC website because she knew I was missing hockey season (being in Australia and all)...

Ive never really posted before so I apologize if its too long but can I give you some food for thought to finish with...

Ever feel that North Americans have forgotten how to hug properly...guess its lost along with the art of real gift giving.

(PS I know youre a stickler for punctuation Zoe but my question mark and apostrophe buttons are broken, lol).

Hey Zoe

Alas, I gained the much discussed "travel weight"...and the shirt does not fit (not even half of me) but I do have for the day when I can wear it once more ;)

take care

Hey Zoe

I think that you've kind of always hated presents that are given out of "necessity". Anyone who knows you knows that about you. For those who don't really know you, I would have to agree with Beth.

People do it at weddings all the time when they don't want their loved ones to spend a fortune just becuase. Get a nice card for the holidays and find a tasteful way to say "donate to a charity in remembrence of my Dad" and send it to those people who aren't going to be able to spend time with you.

I'm still going to get you coffee though ;) Not becuase it's Christmas but because it's what I would be drinking if I was sitting in your living room chatting and laughing with you.

I love ya hun, and as my Mom always says, "This too shall pass." Not that it's ever going to go away but it will get easier.

I totally agree. I was in such a foul mood yesterday. But today is beautiful and the sun is shining and now I feel like I could conquor the world.
I think that you should buy a ticket. My brother just won $21,000 on a black jack ticket...I think that's a sign ;)

PS I have to point out a friendship first for us...me telling you that you have a spelling mistake in your post...you with a spelling mistake, lol...

HAHAH I remember when you told me about your first experience with Adult Vampire Romances...definately not expecting that from the helpful lady at Chapters where ya?

I've got some books I'm going to send you. I've decided I don't have room for them in my house and since I usually only read them once I figured it's nice to pass them on. Read 'em, donate them to a library or make your shelves fuller...either way someone else gets to enjoy them ;)

Re: Mystery Theatre 2.0: Whose Pasta Salad Is It?

Eusebia Mindorff — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 15:49:54 -0000

Ok well I'm going to refer back to the rules of my parents house. "He who cooks the most does not have to do the dishes." The rest of us poor saps have to play "Rock, Paper, Scissors" untill the dishwasher is named. "But what happens when there is more then one cook?", you ask? Well the rule in the Mindorff house is this: whoever spent more time in the kitchen is excused from dished. If both are there equally well, then it boils down to a dual of - you guess it - "Rock, Paper, Scissors"...

I'm sure this isn't the answer you are looking for but I'd have to say that Jaimie oops, I mean "John" should get the credit for the salad. But nice try though ;)
