My very excellent Christmas

[AnnieCamaro]

This was a fine Christmas! I met Isabella, who is the tiniest two-footer I ever saw. She has pretty, dark brown eyes like mine, and she smells good. As I mentioned in Miss Fantine's thread, I got to give her a present, a Baby Einstein Mr. Mozart CD.

Because I'm a lucky girl who already has everything I want and need, my own presents were of the tasty-things-to-eat variety, including some most interesting meat cookies from the Omaha Steaks company. Lizbit got some nibblies and a stuffed, fat gopher in a Santa hat. Rusty stole the gopher to use as a chin rest, so Lizbit just pretended that she had given it to him. I think she just wanted to give somebody a gift like I did. She pretends otherwise, but I am her role model. She even listened to me about how she had to behave herself at Christmas dinner and not be jumpy around the baby. None of us got into trouble even one time. I think that's a record.

I would like to have Christmas more often.

Sounds likie a perfect Christmas. I can't think of a better role model than you, Annie. Keep up the good work! The Baby Einstein CD was a wonderful gift.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Jeez, Annie, I really respect your attitude-- I mean, I'm all pissanty about the fact that I have to wait a whole year for Christmas to come back, but here you are, all cheerful and happy, even though Christmas is seven years away for you.

I wonder if maybe they spike the kibble with something...

Well, we know the kibble wasn't spiked with lead or poisonous grains cuz it came from Omaha Steaks and not China.

<Homer> Mmmmm.... steaks. </Homer>

It's worse with birthdays. My mom lets seven of my birthdays go by before she remembers the one on Halloween. I get Christmas every time the two-footers do.

(I'm not really complaining so much about the birthday thing. At least I finally had a birthday this year. Because I was not a paper dog before I made my own paper, it was my first official birthday ever.)

I love Christmas!!!

I knew what my present was under the tree!! I was going to unwrap it right away!! But Dad put it away until present-unwrapping time! The squeaker on it works! And works and works and works and works and works! So Dad put it away again.

I got to pre-wash Dad's Christmas dinner plate before it went in the dishwasher!!! Mom makes the best turkey in the world!! And Dad makes the best mashed potatoes!!!

I was a good girl for pictures by the tree!! The cats were bad. They don't like pictures!!! Or strangleholds! But Mom said pictures or else!!

The only thing that could have made it better would be a w - a - l - k. (They spell it now so I won't run to the door, but I'm a smart girl, I know what it means.) But Mom was too busy with the turkey and stuffing and gravy and cranberry salad and acorn squash and green beans and rolls and butter and Sara Lee home-cooked punkin pie!!! And phone calls!!!

Maybe I'll get more turkey today if I'm good! And a w - a - l - k!
