Hey guys!!! Yes, I'm still alive and breathing. So many times, I've thought of coming and saying hi then right before I do it, I forget and have to attend to something else.

How's everyone? I miss you guys!!!

Hey Raisa! Welcome back, you have been missed

Cobra951 · « **Reply #2 on:** Wednesday, December 12, 2012, 07:51:13 AM »

Hey, Raisa! Long time no see. How are you? How's the little one?

Quemaqua · « **Reply #3 on:** Wednesday, December 12, 2012, 07:51:32 AM »

Merry Christmas! Always nice to hear from you.

Raisa · « **Reply #4 on:** Wednesday, December 12, 2012, 05:30:48 PM »

Hey!

Cobra, the little one zips around the place so fast. He likes to speak in big, long sentences--very cheeky. He's obsessed with trucks, sticks, and stones! I swear, I've never had to chase so many tow trucks and garbage trucks in my life!

How's it going, Que?

Xessive--thanks

I've missed you too!

So I guess your deep undercover mission is finally over. Good to see you again.

Quemaqua · « **Reply #6 on:** Wednesday, December 12, 2012, 09:44:30 PM »

It's going. First semester back to school is over and went well. Just had two of my short stories published. My life is as screwy as ever, but never boring. Except for the boring bits.

I gather married life and motherhood are treating you well?

Raisa · « **Reply #7 on:** Thursday, December 13, 2012, 12:59:00 PM »

Idol--I guess in some ways it's over, but it's never going to be out of my system--and I look forward to my return.

Que--HAHA!! Those two jobs--wife and mother--are the most challenging, frustrating, hair-pulling roles I've ever had to deal with. So treating me well isn't exactly how I would put it.

Where can I get your short stories?

Quemaqua · « **Reply #8 on:** Thursday, December 13, 2012, 03:03:09 PM »

First one you can find at: http://www.solarcide.com - next one isn't until January, but will be at Downer e-zine.

And yeah, I can imagine the wife/mother gig is a rough one. I certainly wouldn't wish it on anybody! I trust that you're up to the challenge, though, so I hope it's been fulfilling.

It's weird to see "Merry Christmas!" There are so many Jewish people in South Florida it is taboo to say that here. I see cars driving around with menorahs on top of them.

Anyway, Merry Christmas!

There's a lot of Catholic Latin Americans too. So say "feliz navidad" to get your Merry Christmas fix.

Now I have a machine gun.

Ho. Ho. Ho.

Seriously? I guess I grew up in a place where they have the longest Christmas season. So, I especially miss being home during Christmas.

Where I live now, it's rare to hear "Merry Christmas" It's usually Mele Kalikimaka or Happy Holidays.

Mele Kalikimaka

I always think of that scene when the song comes up. Anyway, I come from a place with a long Christmas season too, from the 24th of December to the 6th of January (epiphany, 3-Kings day). Childhood there was sweet during the holidays.

Merry Christmas to everyone. I have no idea how we are going to fit all of Willa's stuff in her room.

Also, apparently all the GOOD baby toys make noise.

Anyhow, we're up for a quick cup of joe and a shower, then we're making the 2 hour drive to Beth's grandmother's house. Presumably where Willa will get even more things that make noise.

Merry Christmas, dudes. Hope you all have a lovely day.

Menorahs.....on top of the car? I laughed out loud picturing it.

Anyways, Merry Christmas to all.

Just read it in your head with Garfield's voice.

Merry Christmas everyone. Good cheer and all that sort.

It is as ridiculous as you pictured it. Probably moreso.

You'd think they'd be really concerned by the decrease in gas mileage from the loss of aerodynamics. Ba-doom-ching!

Raisa · « **Reply #28 on:** Tuesday, December 25, 2012, 11:24:53 PM »
