Gone Fishin'
Sunday, December 21, 2008 at 12:01AM | Mr Lady
Tonight, I will check my email, look for Michelle's home address so I can mail her the iTunes card she has coming to her, and then this laptop is going in a box under my bed until the new year. (cue Belinda Carlyse) Vacation, all I ever wanted, vacation have to get away...
See, it's that bad that I'm quoting Belinda Carlyse. *shudder*
I'll return on the 1st either refreshed and renewed and ready to hit it hard or twitching, drooling and dragging one leg behind me. Either way, blog fodder. Far be it from me to leave you all hanging with no holiday cheer, however. I've lined up a star studded cast of guest posters, none of which have ever been in my uterus. There's a first time for everything, dawg. So, me and mine bid you and yours a fond fairwell, and wish you love and laughter and chocolate. Especially the chocolate.
(Go on, push play. It'll hurt, but it's short.)
(Unless, of course, you're reading this in your reader. You'll just have to click through this one time.)
Wishing You a Very Merry Christmas from Mr Lady on Vimeo.
And if you want something more, say, in tune, here's a playlist for you of my mostest favorite holiday songs. It'll be over there in the sidebar until New Year's, too. Hell, the first ten people who say they want the cd version and then email me their address get it. Mr Lady, out.

Foxy Lady! Er....I mean Mr. Lady of course. I'm sorry but that was hilarious. 3of3 sort of reminded me of that old SNL skit........Tonto Frankestein and Tarzan sing Christmas songs.......you remember? Frankenstein would just go eeeerrrrrhhh.........oh never mind. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to the Lady family. Peace, Mike.
Merry, Merry Christmas.
(I love Death Cab....) (But that doesn't sound very Christmas-y, does it?)

Waaaa.... my mornings won't be quite the same. I might have issues adjusting to this news. I really needed more of a heads up to prepare myself for this major change in my lifestyle.
Enjoy. And. Have the merriest Christmas.

Oh lining up the star-studded guest posters - aren't you friggin' organized? You managed to get that going, Christmas shop and put that killer little playlist together? No wonder you're a superstar. Okay then, I'm sure I'm so late on getting the CD version of your playlist but I'm gonna email you anyway - just. in. case.
Merry Christmas Mr. Lady. Enjoy the peace. Looking forward to all kinds of '09 blog craziness.

Damn, I'm late, as usual! Cuz I would really LOVE a CD with a song called Merry Fucking Christmas. I'm thinking that sums up this year quite well!
I hope you and your family have a great one. Happy Holidays my friend!

Oh, is it too late for the cd's? Have a wonderful x-mas - one of our most memorable christmas eves was spend in Van - we went out for sushi and stayed in a hotel near the airport - lots of saki followed by being the 1st to security x-mas morning, w/ no passports. He was NOT pleased, muttering something about Canada being responsible for the influx of terrorists into the country, blah, blah, blah... Anyways, it's been a long time since I've gotten a christmas package from BC - that would make my crappy season a bit more bearable! Cheers!
Merry Christmas my friend.. that video was adorable..

That was great!!! 1of3 didn't show? The Dave Matthews song is one of my all time fav's and I have never heard Tori do Little Drummer Boy, that was a great set. I actually learned to play the DM on the guitar.
Thank you for the good wishes! Catch you in the New Year! I hope you have lots of Happy memories and a safe holiday.
*for when you get back *

Your missing Christmastime~ smashing pumpkins. Not bad though. I'm gonna steal some :)
K, I'm #49 but allow me to seduce you into sending me the CD anyway. I'm just guessing Keefer didn't send you that CD yet. I have the power to send you one. Wanna trade?
