This would be my life, then.

pepper: Pepperpot (Butterfly tree)
Hello all, merry Christmas! I've had a peaceful day, watching Doctor Who (he's so pretty in those glasses), and eating vegetarian turkey (yes, yes, I know it's revolting to meat eaters and the majority of vegetarians alike - me and A like it), and drinking Champagne and freshly-squeezed clementine juice. Mmm.

I've also had an incident that is hugely typical of me. Midnight last night, A and I exchanged one present (most we exchange after breakfast on Christmas day, but we allow ourselves one in advance), and I was given a beautiful green crystal pendant necklace. I was very thrilled, and went to bed holding it (sappy, I know). Woke up this morning, and couldn't find it. Anywhere. I've searched, and searched... all day, I've looked. I've taken the bed apart, shaken out all the bedclothes... I haven't actually left the house since I got it, so there's only so far it can have gone. But it's nowhere to be found.

Current theory is that I ate it. In my sleep.

*headdesk*

It's had me and A in hysterics on and off for most of today. I'm really REALLY hoping it turns up in some corner of the room somewhere soon, though.

So, hope you're all having a peaceful holiday, and don't eat your presents unless they're edible!

Doh! Is it bad I want to say that I hope everything comes out okay? :)

It sounds beautiful - hope it turns out somewhere. Maybe it's REALLY tangled in the sheets or your pajamas or the pilowcase or, um, I know! Maybe it was actually a secret Ancient device that was the key to life, the universe and everything and Daniel wanted it Really Bad so he convinced Jack to have Thor beam him into your bedroom in the middle of the night so Jack snuck in and slipped it out of your fingers but he'll return it in a few days...

Regardless, glad you guys can laugh about it and that your holidays were good.

:) I'm just glad A isn't mortally offended that I ate his present. I've looked eeeeeeverywhere, CSI-style. Mostly it's still amusing me, although I am pretty peeved, too. I don't quite believe that I ate it, really. Why would I do that? Surely I'd notice? Surely I'd choke? The mind boggles.

I like your theory much better. I wish he'd left a note, though. :D

Yeah, definitely good you guys can see the humor. And it *can't* have gone far so I'm sure it'll turn up. And, yeah, the eating isn't terribly likely (though you never know...did you have crazy dreams about being really hungry?)

He didn't leave a note because Thor beamed him up to quick. But he's planning to wake you up to apologize when he brings it back.

Heh. And, you know, it could be an Ancient thingy - it was all little crystals, and they do like their crystal technology...

Bah. I want it baaaaaaack! I keep going in and turning the room upside-down, in the hopes that it'll have somehow reappeared.

See, crystals are the answer to everything (speaking of, have you tried magnets? :) )

I don't blame you. Watch it turn up the second you give up and stop looking for it...

Yeah, the only trouble is, I hate an unsolved puzzle, so I'm not going to stop looking for quite a while...

Heh, magnets may be the answer!
