Being told to open a package very carefully to which I did. Then being all excited about the puzzle and grinch questionnaire.
Texting a thank you! Then being asked if I looked inside. I said emm hmm.. she said what did you see? I said pretty stickers, puzzle and note.. and sent proof. .
Again did you look inside? I didn't want to open the wrapping because of stickers, so I opened the side. This time I carefully opened the wrapping all the way. And inside the best gift ever! A tracing of her hand, with colored nails and a message. .
Cracked me up that for once I listened carefully and almost missed the best part of my surprise gifts. . Hears to listening, lol

Going to my job tonight after Christmas shopping. When my coworker opened the drive thru window, I said, "I need a tall peppermint mocha" in a deep Southern accent. He laughed so hard and closed the window on me. When he came back, I handed him three Hershey chocolate bars for the people closing.

We know, we know. He is adorable. All small and yellow and fluffy. A little bit tubby which makes him seem more softer somehow, like a dog you can trust with your secrets. Don't be fooled. Yes, he is a great listener. But inside that innocuous adorable blonde package exists tons - indeed, whole square miles - of naughty.

It's true: Eddie the Terrible IS terrible. And we have three great reasons you shouldn't even think about adopting him.

1) Like to go for walks in dog infested areas? Enjoy the dog park? Keep walking....

While Eddie The Terrible has never actually attacked another dog, he's made it abundantly clear that he hasn't ruled out the possibility. He goes from zero to Cujo in .05 seconds when he sees another dog on leash. Well, sayeth you, lots of small dogs bark at other dogs on leash. True. But we know people expect a lot from dogs in this day and age and when it comes to leash theatrics, Eddie's at the top of his game. Also true: he's made some progress. But lest his adorable little blond-ness let you think this is going to be a plug-and-play dog, think again.

Granted, if there's no other dogs around he's wonderful to take for a stroll. He loves him some leash walks and yard time. But at the sight of another dog, all bets are off. It's Cujo time.

We're pretty sure somewhere out there exists someone patient enough to work with him on this or someone who frankly doesn't give a bean if he likes to scream his head off for a few seconds at the neighbor's lab. But in the interest of full disclosure, we have to be honest.

2) Want your kids to grow up with a full complement of fingers and toes? Not the dog for you.

Some dogs love kids. We have a bunch of child-lovin' dogs. Eddie the Terrible, however, is not one of them. Honestly he's a little whiffy with some adults, too. Not in an eat-them sort of way but in 'this makes me very nervous' sort of way. Eddie's never actually bitten anyone but we're not saying it could never happen.

In a home environment Eddie is lovely. He's housebroken, loyal, fun and friendly. He lives to play fetch. But socially? He stinks. We're in Silicon Valley - if we started throwing out the socially awkward no one would ever have another piece of new technology again. We know somewhere out this little guy has a match.

3) Looking for a simple dog that will sleep in his crate? Not your guy.

So let's talk about the bed. Or the sofa. Or someplace that you generally like to hang out because that's where Eddie's going to want to bunk. Worried about dog hair on the furniture? Very valid worry if you adopt Eddie. While Eddie is crate trained, he has a weird thing about sleeping in the crate. And by weird thing we mean 'nope, not happening'. A bed in your room? Awesome. In the bed with you? Better. In a crate? Let him sing you the song of his people...

In fact if you're looking for a floor-sleeping, speed bump of a dog that minds his own business, strike Eddie clean off your list. Eddie demands interaction. Not all the time and not in that follow-you-around-and-bark sort of way that makes you want to stick your head in the oven, just in a 'whither though goest, I goest' way. Or however that goeth. You're in the living room? Cool, he wants to watch TV with you. Going outside? Did we mention that he loves fetch? Heck, if he didn't want to eat other dogs he'd be a shoo-in as an agility pooch as he's played on the equipment and is pretty fearless.

Let's face it: unless you're looking for a dog that's a little bit of work, Eddie The Terrible is not the dog for you. We know, we know. He's super loyal, easy in the house and a lot of fun but he's a little rough around the edges. Actually he's kind of a jerk. But he's a jerk we believe in. We're not expecting you to want to meet him but if you must, we really can't deter you.

If you love a challenge, are looking for the dog of a lifetime and think you can handle the thirteen pounds of terror that is Eddie, we won't stop you. You just go ahead and call 1.408.262.2133 ext 150. But don't say we didn't warn you.

Watching Youtube clips of the White Christmas dance numbers, and then reenacting them with my coworkers. We cracked ourselves up.
Every time I walked past the receptionist I did the little hair flip thing Vera Ellen does in the number when shes wearing the yellow dress. Lots of giggling today

The best things happen when you're dancing..... ahem

Dad...did Mom tell you what happened to me Friday
Me... nope what happened
Dad..Moma has been putting this stuff (Litocaine) on my throat before I eat so I can swallow without pain.
Me... uh huh
Dad..she was gone but told me to go ahead and eat. I was going to Crossroads to eat. So I turned up that medicine bottle and drank a few big swigs.
Me...Daddy are you crazy? Didn't you read the bottle?
Dad...well I ate about half my meal and started to feel sick. I got up and started stumbling around and the girls came running to help me. I told them I felt dizzy. Ask them to get my phone out of the van.
Me..starting to laugh, I'd hate to tell Mom Iz to stupid to read the bottle
Dad.. shhhh Im not done, I started gagging and they ran and got me a trash can. I threw up what I had eaten and even lost my teeth
Me...laughing hysterically OMG
Dad...I went out to the van and waited on ya Moma to come get me.
Me..still laughing...did you not know that is to numb your throat and you spray or drizzle it down ya throat not drink it.
Dad...well Im scared of it now. I havent had it anymore. I thought that shit was gonna kill me.

Actually it was Saturday night. I have my alert tone set to a laser sound. Its loud enough to wake me.

My sister was texting me from work and said she would get back to me after work. I fell asleep about 12:15, woke up at 2am thinking she must have forgotten me. I grabbed my glasses and picked up my phone, there was 44 text messages. This means my laser that would wake the dead went off 44 times and I was so hard asleep I didnt hear it. I read them all and text her back. She text me right back and said where the hell you been? LOL duh what could I say? I said I guess I fell asleep. She said what the hell are you doing awake now? Chuckling....I said well after my phone blew up 44 times I figured Id better check it out. She said you a damn liar that was hours ago.
