Happy Dysfunctional Roommate Christmas.

[threeplusfire]

Instead of a tree, we piled all our presents on the ironing board.

We opened gifts before dinner. Gene gave me a beautiful dark shiny Zippo, and I'm itching to set something on fire now. Need to go out and buy fluid. It's gorgeous, and the second lovely little thing I've gotten today. He wrapped my gift in 25% cotton typing paper, and hid Melynda's game inside a phonebook in a huge box. It was funny, you had to see the expression on her face. Melynda made sure I had a real Christmas, and bought toys. The Harry Potter Trivia game, which we will surely inflict on all our friends until they strangle us both, and a kick ass Aragorn action figure. That's what I get for joking about wanting Viggo in a box.

So we are watching Grosse Point Blank now, and eating our dinner, and things are happy.

Because everyone knows that fire is the answer to all problems! It's like the best Christmas ever, fire and action figures. :D

Mmm...Viggo in a box...

Hehe. I originally threatened to mail him to a friend, because he would look so nice on their couch. But then I started thinking that I wanted a man in a box for Christmas too...

*looks at her couch*
I think only Gimli would look natural on my couch.

And this reminds me of what my friend Tania and I wanted for Christmas a few years back. A man wrapped in a bow. Just a bow. But hey, at least with a man in a box, you can put him back when your done playing with him.

You must have a very unique couch. :D

And you are very right about the man in the box. Hehe.

Hee! In my apartment, we have a Holiday Stepladder, in glorious aluminum and red plastic.

Heh, fabulous!
My roommate's mother upset her by suggesting that they just wrap the coat stand in garland instead of getting a tree this year.
