Luann: "Merry Christmas, Quill"
Quill: "A snow globe!"
Luann: "I had it custom-made. The photo inside is your home, Kiama. It's summer there, winter here, so- well, this sorta brings them together"
Quill: "Like this?"
Luann: "Mmm. Exactly"

Unusually thoughtful for Luann. Perhaps she’s maturing after all.

Few comments could be a result of being up early with the kiddies and now it’s time to crash.

Nice gift, but, she should have given him a 1 way plane ticket back to Kiama, instead

I have to wonder is their winters more mild that ours? .During the Northern Hemisphere’s winter, Isn’t the Earth the farthest away from the sun?

So, Does THAT Mean That YOU Think He’s FINALLY Spending Enough with You NOW, “Boss Lady?”
Oh, and If I Were YOU I’d Take a GOOD Long LAST Look At that Snow Globe, Lu.
Because When Gunther Sees it on Q-Ball’s Nightstand, He’s Gonna “Accidentally” SMASH it into a Ga-Zillion Kia-Ma BITS.

This is true!…. along with the tilt (23.4 degrees) with one hemisphere towards and one away from the sun….– Also, in respect to the amounts of daylight, it is equal, but the “measure of heat intensity” is what I was trying to describe as “the seasons”….
JayBluE almost 11 years ago
This here is the closest I could find to what I was saying, which also describes what we both are describing…..

Luann put a lot of thought into that gift. At 17 it is difficult to buy for a guy, but she got it right.
ACTIVIST1234 almost 11 years ago
Luann is being mighty clever— wearing mistletoe on (if not over) her head, so she can kiss whomever she likes, whenever she likes.*In case you missed it, check out Luann Againn today— a special guest appearance, by someone who has also improved with age!*BTW, I’m Christian but didn’t go to church Tues. or Wed. either. Too exhausted! As kids we think holidays “just happen”. As adults, we realize that celebrations are Made!*And thanks yesterday to the many ways to say “Merry Christmas”. And to our Canadian friends, “Happy Boxing Day”.

@milania: “You keep Christmas in your way, and let me keep it in mine.”@activist1234: I’m pretty sure that’s supposed to be holly, not mistletoe. I don’t think mistletoe has red berries. Besides, Luann has never really struck me as a “Whoever she likes, whenever she likes” kind of girl. True, she generally falls hard when she falls, but it’s never casual or immediate.And, in the immortal words of John Lennon: “Happy Chrimble, one and all!”

That thing Luann has around her neck. Why does she not take it to a Pawn shop? I bet she could get almost a nickle for it=====Come on. Is that all you’ve got? You can do better than that….

Well, though today is an off day, I guess I’ll fill in really quick for some of the parts since many are enjoying their “Luann” day off, like me… well, except for now, since I’ll volunteer to fill in for different parts, for “entertainment’s sake”, LOL!… That way, there’ll be something for someone who may look on here and wonder where everybody is… – K, I’ll do a “Grumpy, Negative Troll” in redand the “Troll keeper” who feeds and cares for it, in purpleUh…. actually, I think some stuff was already covered, and those are the only two that hasn’t been done, yet…..

" get my little Kubota tractor, put the blade on the front, drive it through the house and push all the wrapping, boxes, and garbage out the service entrance."*Brdshtt— I can’t believe you would be so environmentally negligent! We all must carefully smooth out the wrapping paper, carefully remove the bows (best to tape them on so they can be removed more easily), so they can be re-used NEXT year. Cut off the pretty part of cards to use either as decorations or to send to hungry children for craft projects (really— I get letters asking me to do this, plus a monetary donation.)*P.S. I made a Wellington Orange cake for dessert rather than pies— huge cake with lots left over— guess I’d better go back to pies next year.BTW- Per leftovers— turkey tastes much better in mid-January. Freeze it today to serve when YOU are no longer stuffed.

Wikipedia says that the coldest month in Kiama, Australia, is July, and the average temperature in that coldest month is a high of 62.4 degrees F and a low of 47.3 degrees F. So Kiama is never really cold. I suspect neither Pitt nor Kiama ever get snow, so the snow globe is a rather curious choice of a gift.

“little Kubota tractor, put the blade on the front, drive it through the house and push all the wrapping, boxes, and garbage out the service entrance.” I’ve been waiting for the Roomba to offer a front loader option.

I think Lu gave Quill a delightful gift. Now I’m waiting to see the boomerang earrings he gave her.

====== it’s her way of giving the message that like those two elements, they (cue me shuddering) somehow should “belong together”…
=======Well, maybe, but I think you might be attributing a more profound philosophy to something that was possibly just a more light-hearted effort to show Quill that he had two ‘homes’ now….

I don’t think ‘The Worst Thing’ is meant for a readership that includes teens….

However y’all want to nitpick this to death… ^Since it was quiet here, today, it seemed like a good time to “exercise” the old “minutia machine”a bit, and all… – It’s sometimes nice to go out for a stroll and not know which way you want to walk…. or to take a road trip without planning it out, and just see where the road takes you….taking stock of everything there is to encounter….– Long as you know how to “get back home”, and as long as you keep a map, just in case….
JayBluE almost 11 years ago
Plus, when you start getting into things that eventually lead into things having to do with Meteorology, Astronomy and the like, well, details are a part of that…. like I was saying: As long as you know how to bring it back home….

Luann and Quill are maturing – ever so slowly….ike our nation…ever so slowly.The “left” leads, the right has to follow….over and over.. Spending U.S. right into bankrupcy!!!(cough, cough -awwwwkk) maybe that’s what’s making me & my brethren so sick).Of course, the turkey COULD have been our national bird – if Ben Franklin had HIS way. Maybe the turkey really IS our national bird.

. What’s wrong with something representing Pitts? Isn’t there something like a peach pitt on a string Luann could give Quill?^^LOL

If you go to google maps and put in Kiama NSW You can sort of scroll around the street view. It’s a cute little town. Very modern.

The TSA agents at the airport won’t allow Quill to bring the snowglobe on the plane. Oops, I forgot that Quill isn’t going anywhere.

A snow globe? Yeah right
