But not to worry! After eating the absolutely delicious picnic lunch you've planned for us, I'm sure we'll both have enough energy to slather cool whip over our hot bodies kiss on the beach! And Spike has shanshued! Or maybe we found a dark and secluded cave for our rendevous. So many options in this delicious fantasy! Thank you so much my dear Secret Santa for this absolutely perfect gift!! {{Santa}}

Best. Present. Evah! ;D Thank you, thank you, thank you, Santa!!!!! (And am I the geekiest girl in the world? I actually checked out the sock sites before drooling over, and copying to my hard drive, the Spike Sock photos! ) The Lonely Socks site is sooooo fun! You can post a picture of your single sock and say where you last saw the matching one! ;D Lola Ahem. I'll be over in the thrall room closet for a while. James is having some . . . . trouble with his . . . . sock. I think it's . . . stuck, or something. Being the civic minded gal that I am, I figured I'd help, you know, get him it off. I'm a giver.

Dear Rachael,
This one is courtesy of Mrs. Clause, who says you haven't been nearly naughty enough this year. She also says to tell you that she's awfully sorry what she had to go through to get this picture.
I'm not sure what she means. She won't tell me anything...she won't stop grinning, either...
Santa
p.s. Have you got any cookies?

OOOooooooooooowwwwwwwwwww! Santa Baby, You are the best! And I know you are relieved to be able to hunt for Jamie photos after sorting thru all those Spike and Wesley and Sawyer pictures! Isn't he just the cutest thing! (And the best thing is that, like JM his first name is "James" so if I get, you know, like, carried away----hubby Jim never suspects a thing! www.soulfulspike.com/staff/smileys/shhh.gif [/img] )

Dear Santa - What? Did you even SEE my avatar yesterday? Okay, fine, Mrs. Claus may have a point. At any rate, thank you thank you thank you for the lovely semi-nekkid AD photo. *sigh* And how very thoughtless of me not to leave some cookies for my favorite elf: As for the naughty - I'm working on it.

[/img][/center] Dear Shan,[/size] I noticed in your wish list that you wanted something to make you laugh. So I found a short, amusing little fanfic story. Here’s a pic to set the mood:
And here’s the URL:

yep Sue, you definitely deserve the naughty! LOL! I pondered that line for a loooooooooong time--but it was "going for the naughty" which tipped the scale in favor of including it! But--I could never fantasize about real person and I think he'd be suspicious if I said "ooo, Mike"!

Dearest Patti, You deserve flowers every day. But I'm afraid Minerva (Mrs. C) would get suspicious. And just imagine the VISA bill! So these will have to do for now: Love, Claus-y P.S. Clearly I'm still working on the "easy" stuff and saving the best for last.

Clearly I'm still working on the "easy" stuff and saving the best for last. Dear Santa, I have LOVED my gifts so far! What a beautiful bouquet of roses and apples - two of my favorite smells! Thank you very much, and give Minnie my best unless you think it's best not to mention it at all... love, your admirer too, Patti
