Oh yes, you heard me—HAPPY HOLIDAYS, and a very happy New Year. I say that not because I’m PC (in case there was EVER any confusion that I do or don’t do things because of political correctness *snort*), but because I’m fuckin’ lazy. The other option was Kwanmasolstikah. I’m a godless heathen, but I really enjoy this season because any holiday that provides excuses for me to buy presents for my loved ones, receive gifts in return and eat myself into a stupor gets a thumbs-up from me.
This year, I’ll be spending the holidays in St. Croix with my bestest friend, Jen, who lives there on an organic farm. The plane leaves at 11:50 tonight, and I’m still not packed, yeee-haw. I like to live on the edge. I have a few things set to post while I’m away, but I won’t be able to respond to e-mail or comments for the next little while—they don’t have cellphone reception at the part of the island where I’m going to be, much less the Internets. 10 days without Interwebbing. Egad, I may very well collapse in a shivering pile of withdrawal. But know that I love all of you—yes, in dirty and unspeakable ways, even—and that I’ll miss this crazy site and obsessively checking for new comments.
See you next year!
“Kwanmasolstikah”?? i thought it was christmukkah! or chrismahanukwanzikah at least…Kwanmasolstikah is a new one…*is jealous of people going warm places while i’m stuck in MA*
Have a safe trip, Candy. I’ve been to St. Thomas and St. Croix and St. John while I was in college. Stayed a month. A best pal of mine stays there (which is a plus in and of itself) Enjoy, enjoy and Happy Holidays to you too.
Have a lovely and sunny time in St. Croix, and happy holidays to Sarah, Freebird and Mr. Sarah too!
Happy Holidays to all the Bitches. 🙂
Have a great time Candy – will they still be the Virgin Islands once you’ve sorted them out?
And Merry Christmas (or whatever – insert the good time of your choice) to you and to Sarah and to Freebird.
See you (virtually) next year.
Oddly enough, Candy and I will be in the Virgin Islands within 2 days of each other – I leave on Jan 2 so y’all are stuck with me then, but perhaps this needs to be an annual thing: Smart Bitches Virgin Island tour – “Will they still be Virgins when we’re done?”
Heh.
Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, Peaceful Solstice, Good Kwanzaa, and YAY it’s a WEEKEND from Freebird, Hubby and myself!
Wait a minute, what about Festivus? 🙂
Hope you have a wonderful island getaway. (That sounds so fun!)
Bon voyage to all travelers out there. Happy Christmakwaanzikaah & solstice or whatever to all. Eat lots of yummies for us. Have some rum & soak up the sun.
Hope you both have nice holidays!
