Merry Christmas! (Presents with Miranda and Juno)

My sister, Juno, stayed over with me last night. Honestly, she doesn't have a house of her own, so I told her she could just stay with me as long as she wants. We were great roommates before, I think it'll work out.

We wandered downstairs, and checked out presents even before coffee!


And there actually were some! Santa brought Juno something! 


I got a present from my buddy, Lori, of Happily Ever After in Virginia. She's awesome. 


And she sent me awesome, super comfy cozy slippers! These are so cool! Thank you, Lori!!!


A present came along with the Major Award, from my friend Zorropirate and her army of Latis, but I didn't want to open it until Christmas. 


It was cleverly wrapped in a gum box. This is pretty brilliant.


Oh! OH!!! It's a PSP!!! My very own! Oh wow! Thank you, Zorropirate! Thank you so much!!! I love it!!


Juno pointed out that I got a Santa present. And rather than the lump of coal I was expecting, for having punched an Elf on the Shelf, I got a beautiful little glass horse! There was a note that said "Dear Miranda, Punching people is naughty. But defending your friends is nice. So let's call this one even.  Love, Santa "

Which is way awesome.


I asked Juno what she got from Santa, and she just seemed confused. She said it was a lot of legalese looking papers, something about a "ground-breaking" in late Spring and "historic significance". There was also a book on "Painted Lady" houses and a building permit. And I was confused too until she looked up at me and said...


"Miranda, what's a 'Lace House'?"

Oooh boy. I'll guess I won't have her as a roommate for all THAT long. Santa gave her a Lace House!!!

Anyway, now we're off to get ready to head over to Devika's for Christmas there too! Hope you have a very Merry Christmas and got everything you wanted from Santa!

Thank you so much Lori and Zorropirate. You guys are the best.
