Before I descend into writing stories about some mad woman that called the police because her son was playing GTA in the middle of the night, I’m going to stop for Christmas.
As you’ve no doubt noticed, our post-rate’s dropped off steadily over December: Steph’s taking a well-earned rest; Nathan’s doing whatever it is Texan students do over the Holidays; Johnny’s getting ready to start full-time in January, and I’ve got a houseful of screaming people. This year’s dead to us.
If anything earth-shattering happens over the next couple of weeks I’ll stick it up. If not, I’ll hibernate. I want to say a giant thank you to all our readers. You’ve given us amazing support this year, and it’s not really possible to tell you how grateful I am. We’re here to stay, and it’s all thanks to you.
We’ll be back at full power on January 4, 2010. Please have a brilliant holiday. See you next year!

oooh nekkid ladies… Happy Christmas to all. Will my present to myself turn up in time? Demon’s Souls under the tree…

Anyway, Happy Christmas one and all, here’s hoping everyone has a brilliant time!

“Nathan’s doing whatever it is Texan students do over the Holidays.”
Duels at dawn, discovering oil, and walking slowly into saloons, so as to maximize the ominous sounds our spurs make in conjunction with swinging saloon doors. You know, the usual.
But I’m not cool, so I mostly play videogames.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays, everyone!

Merry Christmas Everyone, and a Happy New Year too.
My New Year’s Resolution: Post more comments. I spend too much time reading and not enough time spouting bile and invective or overgenerous praise.
And on that note: Happy Cocking Christmas, you brilliant bunch of lovelies!

Have a good one everyone, take care, keep warm, don’t forget to wear a scarf, watch out for the ice it’s slippy out there, oh, and don’t let the bed bugs bite. Stop them. Somehow.
Cheerybye!
Oh, and to anyone I’ve gotten into arguments on here with, let me assure you it was entirely wine-induced nonsense and I’ve forgotten all about it. Whatever it was. Don’t recall now.
Oh, and feed the cat.
