It's sleuthing time.

[a_bit_of_wit_2]

Well, after being up for a grand total of 38 straight hours, I went to bed around 2 AM, an early night, after a chat with Annie that was several hours long. I slept for 13 straight, waking just after 3 PM via my sister. Yet, with how dark it is in the basement, I thought it was early in the day, early afternoon at best. Nope. But, I was rested. Got dressed, and Grandma took me to the bus station to get my bus tickets, costing $40 less than what I thought. After, on to Wal-Mart, where I had missed Scott, but got ahold of Rich, who after some chat, told me to call him tomorrow. Grandma and I got pizza, and we shared it in the car while waiting for Mom and Sarah to get out of work.

Got back, and hired Mom to wrap the gifts I got for everyone. I still have to go out to Wal-Mart and buy Dad's gift. We had dinner, and everyone retired to their own places for the evening. I played some FF5.

[03:26] Xcbrian2: Whoa.
[03:26] SantaClaus: Ho! Ho! Ho! Merry Christmas! I'm here on AIM! :-D Everything we talk about here is between you and me! If you want to know more, you can type "privacy". Now, streeeeetch that window and let's get started.

So, have you been naughty or nice?

[03:27] Xcbrian2: Naughty!
[03:27] SantaClaus: Oh dear! Well, there is still time to get on my good list.  ;-)  Here's a free Christmas tree SuperBuddy Icon to get you in the holiday spirit. Now type menu to see the fun and games the elves have put together for you.

[03:27] Xcbrian2: Maybe.
[03:27] SantaClaus: May I ask you a question?

[03:27] Xcbrian2: Sure.
[03:27] SantaClaus: Which color are you more partial to? You know, like if it were clothing or something.
Someone asked to find out for them.  ;-)
1 -- Black
2 -- White
3 -- Rose
4 -- Beige

[03:27] Xcbrian2: Purple.
[03:27] SantaClaus: Oh well. Never mind then.

[03:27] Xcbrian2: Good.
[03:27] SantaClaus: Ho, ho then.


[03:27] Xcbrian2: Well, ha.
[03:27] SantaClaus: Pardon me?


[03:27] Xcbrian2: Ha ha and hee hee.
[03:27] SantaClaus: Ah, I've broken through! Merry Christmas!


[03:27] Xcbrian2: Huh?
[03:27] SantaClaus: Oh my, this should be a lot easier! You need to relax and let the Christmas sprit flow.

Try typing, menu to start again.

[03:27] Xcbrian2: Absolutely not.
[03:27] SantaClaus: Oh, Dear. It's the elves again isn't it? Try typing menu; I've got a plan to get you in the Christmas spirit.


[03:27] Xcbrian2: I hate elves.
[03:27] SantaClaus: What about elves?

[03:28] Xcbrian2: They're excellent as golf ball holders.
[03:28] SantaClaus: As soon as Christmas is over, you can bet I'll be headed for the golf course!

[03:28] Xcbrian2: I didn't say that, you fat twit.
[03:28] SantaClaus: Ah -- you've got me again. Why don't you type menu, it's time to get you in the holiday spirit!

[03:28] Xcbrian2: I said no.
[03:28] SantaClaus: O.K. Scrooge. Type menu to try a fresh start.

[03:28] Xcbrian2: Nope.
[03:28] SantaClaus: O.K. then. Well, have a merry Christmas in any case.


[03:28] Xcbrian2: Screw you.
[03:28] SantaClaus: Oh dear. I just get so depressed when I hear that kind of talk. The English language used to be one of my favorites.
A lump of coal for you.


[03:28] Xcbrian2: I'll shove that coal up your ass.
[03:28] SantaClaus: Oh dear! Here we go. I told you once, no cursing.  I'm afraid the elves have drawn the line and will stop me from talking to you if you persist with the foul language.  Please, type menu; let's try to get in the Christmas spirit.


[03:29] Xcbrian2: Screw the elves.
[03:29] SantaClaus: I'm sorry, this is not fun for me. I'm trying to talk to thousands of children and their parents about Christmas. The elves have forbid me to chat with you any longer.


[03:29] Xcbrian2: Well, screw that.
[03:29] SantaClaus: We're sorry -- Santa has returned to his workshop.


[03:29] Xcbrian2: Oh, sure. Run in terror!
[03:29] SantaClaus: Sorry, the elves have asked Santa to turn off his IM and return to the workshop.


[03:29] Xcbrian2: Scared?
[03:29] SantaClaus: Santa has returned to his workshop and is offline. You can come back later in the day and speak with him again.


[03:29] Xcbrian2: Then how come you're still here?
[03:29] SantaClaus: Santa is no longer signed on to IM.


[03:29] Xcbrian2: Riiiiight.
[03:29] SantaClaus: Santa has signed off from this IM and is busy talking to other girls and boys now. You can always come back later in the day if you would like to speak with Santa again.


[03:29] Xcbrian2: Fuck you, then.
[03:29] SantaClaus: Santa has returned to his workshop and is offline. You can come back later in the day and speak with him again.


I went upstairs and sat in on a meeting with David, Matilda, and Grandma about family life, and basically bracing myself for what I'm in for...it's not pretty. Talked to April for a bit before her phone died, and I've been here...in a mass chat with Sarah and friends.

Bedtime soon.

Nighty night, all.
