Do They Know It's Christmas Time At All?

[crazydiamondsue]

Official un-grinching post! I've done quite a bit of online shopping these past few days, and I thought that those of you doing your own holiday shopping might appreciate some of the funtabulous gift ideas I've stumbled across! (Not dial-up friendly.)


I totally might buy some of these...

Plush Stake $8.99 (You know...for all those hard to reach places. And no splinters! No word on if it heats or freezes well...)


Monkey Pens $3.99


Nick and Nora pajamas OUT OF STOCK - I got entrenous88 the gnome set - this is the cocktail design (they're out of stock at Target, but you can find them at amazon.com.)


crazy cat lady action figure $9.95


Buffy, Angel & Spike bobblehead dolls $59.99 (These are much cheaper in the UK, so start kissing up to your Brit flist now. I find bobbleheads terribly amusing, so it kind of cancels out the creep factor. Hey - at least they have arms!)


'My Weiner Does Tricks' hoodie $24.95 (Totally something that's only funny to me. I'd buy it for Caza if I ever thought he'd wear it...)


Buffy playing cards £2.99


oversize lawn bowling $23.96 (I thought this was funny, because entrenous88 and I had just been discussing English lawn bowling.)


Krispy Kreme stock $88.00 (The perfect gift for the Xander in us all! "Respect the cruller - and tame the donut!")


*EDIBLE* Gummi shot glasses $13.00 (I...I think, barring a dream date with Nick Brendon, this might be the best gift, ever...)


Seven Deadly Sins chocolates $35.00 (Lust, Sloth, Envy...with chocolate!!!)


Ice Cream of-the-month club 3 month/4 pint package $155.00


Mooning Gnome $14.98 (Again, probably something that's only funny to me - and possibly Entre Nous. Although I'm saving the pic to manip for my Spike/Xander as gnomes fic.)


80s candy basket $23.99 (I actually *did* buy this - one for each of Caza's sisters.)


Buy land on Mars $29.95 (No shit.)


And just in time for your holiday movie watching...

Gay Rodeo watch $9.97 (current E-bay bid)


Of course, none of these gifts can ever possibly replace the most important gift of all - no, not love! You can have love 375 days a year! I'm talking vampire smut with Spike/Angel or Xander/Spike or Buffy/Angel doing inappropriate things with stockings and candy canes! Where's the holiday smut??? Where??

Hee hee Ho Ho These were funny! The mooning gnome was the best!

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Hee! It has sporfle power. I've already made Entre Nous "Eeeee!" with it...

[allegraconbrio.livejournal.com]

Ohhh, fun! Weiner dogs and mooning gnomes (yess, write the fic - lmao) and gay rodeo. WHeeee!

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

I *will* write that fic. Quite possibly. Yes. How cute was that weiner dog hoodie? /geek

[likeadeuce.livejournal.com]

rawk!

do you have a request? I was thinking of trying to finish the Harmony/school play thing for your christmas present. not so much with the smut, though it does have a Harmony/Faith storyline. . .

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Yes! "Run Juliet!" This works quite well for me. *squees*

[julissak01.livejournal.com]

A PLUSH STAKE? OMG! *orders a few billion because SO COOL*

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

I know!!! There were actually quite a few cool Buffy gift items. I couldn't find the black thong panties that read "Spike" in Buffy font though. :( I saw those last year, I think.

[ponders-life.livejournal.com]

A plush stake?! Hee!
I love the Nick & Nora PJs!

Here's one for you: Cthulhu Plush Slippers

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Eeeeeee! I love slippers! And HP Lovecraft!!! Eeee!!!

I would love one of every Nick & Nora PJ print. Oh, the cute!!

And dude - a plush stake? Heh. Gorgeous icon, btw!

[strchsr.livejournal.com]

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

You're welcome - hope it get's better, darlin'. Hollywood. Pfft. They can't even make a decent pot of beans. I have no idea if that helps or not. *g*

[tx-cronopio.livejournal.com]

Oh, I so want the gay rodeo watch! It would offend almost everyone I work with!

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Hee! I think I'll wear the gay rodeo watch with the "trick weiner" hoodie. Whaddaya think?

[tx-cronopio.livejournal.com]

I think you'll be the most popular girl at the whole darned party!

[anelith.livejournal.com]

You are an on-line shopper extraordinaire! How DO you find these things? Your google-fu is excellent.

But yeah, wasn't there a bunch of holiday-themed fic round about this time last year? I seem to recall so, anyway.

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Hee! I found quite a few of them at www.findgift.com - the rest (the Buffy stuff) I googled.

There were quite a few holiday ficathons, come to think, so hopefully there will be more this year!!!

[winterlive.livejournal.com]

HOLY GUMMI SHOT GLASSES, SUE!

That's the most excellent thing ever. They will surely - SURELY - turn up in fic I am writing.

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

And surely they should! Gummi shot glasses!!! That's my vote for gift item of the year. And yay!!!

[smashsc.livejournal.com]

You have seen the I Rub My Duckie (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00074W6CE/qid=1133921625/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl121/102-8797179-7046527?v=glance&s=hpc&n=507846) vibrating rubber duckie (yes that is the actual name). Overpriced at Amazon but Sharper image had them for $16 last time I was in there.

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Heee!!! Someone emailed that around not too long ago. That's just great!! Dude - I *just* realized that your icon is Stephanie from the "A Girl for All Seasons" bit. *loves*

[smashsc.livejournal.com]

I almost bought a rubber duckie when shopping but I couldn't figure out who to give it to.

Yes, it is Stephanie. Both melodratic & christmasy. (-:

[ladycat777.livejournal.com]

GUMMY SHOT GLASSES!!!!!!

*loves*

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Heeeee!!! I'd forget and start eating my glass while it was still half full and spill it all over myself.

[virtualpersonal.livejournal.com]

ROFLMAO, thank you so much for this very original way of spreading Christmas cheer! Plush stake and gummy shot glasses are my faves.

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Tazi did a great job on those icons...all I'm sayin'. *g*

But yes, the shot glasses were my fave. Yay! Glad I gave you a grin.

[entrenous88.livejournal.com]

This is such a great post -- I love the Monkey pencils, and jammies! Truth be told, I looked at that 80s candy basket and before reading the caption thought, oooh, look, flavored condoms! *facepalms* I mean, how 80s was that, though?

I'm totally saving up for that lawn bowling set, because the ball looks like it is bigger than my head, and that's just funny. I can't believe that land on Mars is so cheap. And someone...owns Mars? Whoa.

Also, I woke up this morning with 45 LJ comments in my inbox. Um. I think they fixed the comment delivery problem! Yay!

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Hee! Flavored condoms. Speaking of - TFMN have a good birthday? What? I don't reconstruct your segues...

LAWN BOWLING!! I want that, too. We'd totally play it. I found the Mars thing hilarious - they had stuff on the moon, too, but Mars was funnier, for some reason.

Yay to comments! They were starting to trickle in yesterday, looks like we have a commentary bonanza now!

Also - I've been trying to write my Christmas letter all morning? Keep writing "Caza." *facepalm*

[entrenous88.livejournal.com]

He did have a good birthday! I still have to reply to those lovely messages you and other people left as comments on that Happy Birthday entry, though I want to do that tonight when he can be nearby and contribute some of his thanks to the responses. :)

So you're writing Caza instead of Eddie? Or are you writing Caza instead of Christmas? OMG, Happy Cazamas!!!!!!

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Heee - Cazamas! I almost made a "comes more than one day a year" joke, but then backed off. Did not back off from mentioning, though.

Yep. I have written, "Caza and I..." more than once. My aunties are going to be going, "Who in the tarnation is Caza? Sounds foreign..."

Yay for TFMN replies!!!

[brandil.livejournal.com]

I love you.

I think I'm going to buy the cards, reckon I could find them in a comic book store and not have to pay the shipping?

Is a dork

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Maybe? For some reason, the UK got the Buffy stuff I'd actually want (cards, duvets, drinking glasses - heh) while we get bobblehead dolls and plush stakes. Hmm. I really want them to, so I'm going to look for them. I may send darkhavens some money and see if she can snag them cheaper...'cause yeah - I need to have me a Spades night with the Scoobies...

[brandil.livejournal.com]

I need to have me a Spades night with the Scoobies...

Exactly what I was thinking!

[nashmaveric.livejournal.com]

::wonders what the shot glasses taste like:: They're so....blue!

[crazydiamondsue.livejournal.com]

Very, very blue! I don't think it would work to drink something like, say, kahlua out of them...heh.
