Here is last week’s HNR. Due to taking all Fridays off in December, I wasn’t able to post it. Yes it is kinda long, but that is because I just kept a running list this week. Makes it a bit easier. Enjoy!
SithVixen has given her site a total overhaul. SV was, in fact, the inspiration for this week’s MM question about dressing up. Be sure to check out her Trinity costume (from the Animatrix). Nice work!

Donkey Konga - This is what happens when you cross Donky Kong, a pair of bongos and DDR. Ummm, I doubt this will ever make it to the states.

Kim at StinkyPinky and I went out in High School. Yeah, I actually had a date, so what of it??? Anyway, she’s been blogging for some time now, and has finally found a gal she truly feels is the one. ‘Bout time you had some happiness, you go girl!
Live Christmas Carols – On your Phone! How cool would it be to pick up the phone and hear Carolers singing just for you or a loved one? What a great idea, and it only costs $5 to $7! Order by December 12th because the calls will be made this Saturday.
