Decemberween Eve!

I failed this year.

The Cheat and Diderick got me Royal Dansk Butter Cookies in a fancy schmancy bag-like thing, and the tin is fancy schmancy as well. 

And I got them NOTHING.

Well, as soon as that Buffy comic comes out, I will be buying it for them...or The Cheat rather.  Diderick needs his classic reads.

Perhaps I can pull a fast one and wrap up that Simpsons Scene It game for them.

Shhhh.

Don't let them know!

Happy Decemberween!!!!

Another year, another Decemberween. I'm dreading going over to H1's house because Diderick and The Cheat did no get to open their presents yet (oh yes, I managed to find something for them yesterday...phew) but now, we didn't get to drink and open pyos like we usually do on Decemberween Eve. Heh...

Merry Christmas to all! The pyo list will be updated later but first, thank you to all for the gifts and the well wishes!

In the meanwhile, welcome to the The HOchieS Christmas 2008 Blog Layout, where we go inside and do an extreme close up of someone's Christmas Tree. I don't think it's ours.

In Trouble

It's Decemberween Eve and I've not yet gotten a present for the Cheat...

As Boobey would say, "scared".

Happy Decemberween, Biatches!

To all our Frenemies:

Happy Decemberween and Merry Christmas.

We'll post more after we've eaten the bread, ham and the pastelles we made last night. That is, if we survive the pastelles we made...

Memorable Moment and Quote of the Decemberween Eve:

"Oh Shit!" - Mama HOchie, after laying out meat on a banana leaf sans cornmeal during pastelle making.

Decemberween Eve with The Cheat, Diderick and Gnomey-Gnome

This Decemberween Eve, The Cheat had some new friends to celebrate with. I am uncertain how that worked out for me considering they all chipped in and got me a gift. I was expecting three but it's The Cheat, so he'll find a way to keep all the money to himself as per usual.

This was Gnome's first Decemberween. He was chittering excitedly all day from an undisclosed Hide & Seek location:



Come 10.21 PM, the critters gathered 'round on the swivel chair for the gift exchange.

Gnome, with grin from ear to ear, inspected his present:



And was pleasantly surprised to find that a new friend awaited him on the inside!



Diderick and I had a discussion earlier this month about his lack of present. I assured him, his hooliganry-related present was out there in this world, waiting for me to take it by force.

That has seemed to satisfy his Decemberween needs.

A winner was me with The Cheat's pyo this year as well:



Yes, he is a huge fan.

H1 seemed happy with it too, now that I think about it...

Finally, I opened my present. It is apparent The Cheat likes to be a lifesaver on this holiday. Last year there were TSCs and this year:



Diderick chose the flavour. I am told he is a connoisseur of Gorgonzola.

Now The Cheat prepares for New Year's Day but this year I think the Christmas Goose will show him a thing or two about drinks and getting well sloshed.

Here's hoping for no fights on the 1st.

Happy Decemberween

And Merry Christmas, Bitches!

More about the present situation later... har har.

The Cheat Opens said present and look,



Why, if it isn't a The Legend of Zelda Kirby.

But wait!!

The Cheat Got Me a Present as well! What is it?! On first glance it seems to be a box of 32 Decemberween Cards.

But inside the box reveals the actual present!



That Piggyh Pez dispenser and those Tiny Size Chicklets will save my life (as HOchie 1 pointed out), much like Altoids did at College.

Thank you, The Cheat.
