That is magical. I'm glad your wishes were met. ;D

And yes...it is amazing how quickly the fingers begin to go numb and how painful it is afterward, in the frigid cold. I, too, empathize; living in Wisconsin, after all.

What were the hiking maps of? (Er, not sure how to word that question.)

Wow! That's quite a list. :D

Awesome. I wondered if you would receive anything photography-related; makes sense. ;)

That is sad; Butterfinger should be international, darn it! So should Tim-Tams, an Australian/New Zealand/perhaps other-country "delicacy," it seems.

That's grand, though. Santa has smiled upon us this year. O.O

[Oh, and I also got a really awesome drawing table. Quite nice. Almost impossible to assemble, though. Also, a fairly large sum of money (thank you, Shelbydoo, if you ever happen to read this ;)), and a few other assorted things. That is all. :)]

Hehe, why, yes, he did! ;D

Coffee, coffee, oh, and coffee. Literally, my sister and I got 4 LARGE bags of Starbucks coffee, and $75 worth of Starbucks gift certificates (from assorted people). Quite awesome and caffeine-tastic. ;)

What about you? :p

You too, dear boy! Merry Christmas to you!! ;D

Haha, no, it's okay. Bless you. *Wipes "sneeze remnants" off shirt, then touches door knob excessively long and thoroughly*

Ah, that sounds like fun. :) And yeah, I was actually wondering if trick-or-treating (or any Halloween celebrations) was done in Germany at all. That's nice, though. :)

I just worked. And dressed up like the Joker. As you can probably see from the Pictures of Yourself thread. Always a good time. ;)

Yes.

Or was that a rhetorical question? ;D

Seriously, I am glad I will not be around for trick-or-treating - not be around at home for the children who assail our door: It is more like, "treat-and-swine-flu-ing" this year (the swine flu being the inadvertent "trick," obviously, being spread from child to candy to child to candy to child, etc. ).

What are you doing for "All Hallows Eve" (besides hopefully not being exposed to N1H1)? <:)

Hehe, no worries! ;)

*Stashes the rest away in secret cheese-composed hideaway*

Why hello! :D

Aha! But that was the...decoy cheese. The real cheese is hidden. Very secret. Very safe. *Surreptitious glances*

THIS IS A DESTRUCTIVE VISITOR MESSAGE!! RUNN!!!!
