Cthulhu greeting cards with Cthulhu postage stamps! Merry Squidmas and a Non-Euclidean New Year! Yay! I just ordered them. I wish I'd known about them sooner. Had to pay lots to get them to me within a week.

I'm now of the opinion that all holidays are better when mixed with Halloween and a healthy dose of morbid humor. I'm hoping for Cthulhu peeps for Easter, after he said on his talk show that human souls taste just like marshmallow peeps.

A Christmas Story marathon on TBS. Love it. My husband thinks I'm insane. I, on the otherhand, want a leg lamp.

Oh my god where did you get these!!

Edit: Nevermind, if I would have kept reading the thread I would have discovered where! Sorry, got a little excited there. Brain stopped working when I went into hyperexcited-mode.

That's exactly why I bought them. I have a couple of friends who are going to think it's really cool when they see the Cthulhu postage stamp on the envelope, but they'll lose their freaking minds when they see the card. Which is, ya know, kind of a Cthulhu thing.

Cookies!

The holidays (Hanukkah and New Year) are my excuse to fill the house with cookies. Yeah. Oh, yeah! Rum balls, anyone?

Those amazing chocolate covered peanut butter rice krispie ball things that I do not know the name of nor how to make but that I always secretly steal all of off those little "treat" trays people always bring places. If those little chocolate balls are available THEY ARE MINE and it is possible I have snuck all the extras into my pocket.

Also I was an only child and never learned to share. Sorry everyone.

I'm an only child but I've always been excellent about sharing.

Chocolate anyone?
