		<description>GReat post, love your surprises in the mail!  I think you&#039;ve entered my contests before, I just put up another one.
Love that youre a vegan in the Chicagoland burbs.  I am orig from Mpls then Chicago.  All over, city, Naperville, western burbs but thankfully moved to sunnier pastures b/c the snow and I dont get along but family is still back there.   
Have a great nite!</description>

		<description>We saw the movie The Reader.  It was very good.

Our latest surprise was an approx. 8 week old kitten.  Her mama is one of our outside regulars. She brought the kitten the other night and apparently left her here for more than 12 hours.  So we brought her inside.  Kim, if you send me your email(I lost all of my email addresses while migrating them to a new computer), I will email you a picture of her.  We have not named her yet.  I guess there must be a sign on the front of our house that says, &quot;always room for one more&quot;.  :D</description>

		<description>So glad that you liked the gift!  I thought maybe I was taking the easy way out with running things, but there are some fun things in a running store :)  

I asked if the prickly pear candy was vegan, and they guy looked at me really funny - but it may have been because I was speaking English.  Looked like it was all safe ingredients.  I had to get one for myself too, and I have to say, it&#039;s one tasty local treat!  

Glad we could all make your week better, and thanks for all the kind words :)

		<description>What great presents! (Data apparently thinks so too!)

You&#039;re right, it&#039;s easy to get caught up in ranting and forget all the nice friends and other parts of life. That said, ranting is a pretty good way to get it all out.

		<description>Man, you&#039;re gettin&#039; hooked up!  I love seeing Data check them all out. Getting his approval, I see.  :-)

Thanks for this post...this is my favorite time of year, yet I ALWAYS tend to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of it all.  I&#039;m pretty much done with my shopping and almost work, so that should help a little.  

I know it&#039;s SUPER cheesy, but watching &quot;It&#039;s a Wonderful Life&quot; always makes me so thankful.  Sometimes I do wonder how things would be without me in this world (NEVER would jump off a bridge, though) and it just goes to show you that the world (umm...HOPEfully) would not be as better of a place without each of us.
