I like real.....

[Duchess]

Hahaha!

[FAHQTOO]

then I dumped you for Crash, he got jealous of Tommy Lee and dumped me for Aussie

This is a lie of the devil.

There is no way I would be unfaithful to my gay husband Sphincter Cop for Crash. Also Crash wears his budgie smugglers whilst he walks along the beach with his expensive coffee machine stuffed down the front of them.

You must have been drunk. We had a torrid affair, then I dumped you for Crash, he got jealous of Tommy Lee and dumped me for Aussie, now I'm married to ESAD........I think.

Nope, not this summer, wasnt drunk. 2011? Perhaps.

Probably was 2011. Time goes too fast at our age. It was whenever you posted your censored picture.

That was tail end of last year, I believe, or maybe early Jan.

Your pup is adorable!!

Thank you!

[thekid65]

Havent gotten any new decorations, not sure if I'll need them as already have a bunch.

I go to the store this am to get a simple tree skirt...a fucking skirt. $260 later.....uhg. Sometimes I cant help myself.

My kinda man.

[thekid65]

On the bright side, at least I didnt forget the skirt. Sometimes I'll do stupid shit like that.

[thekid65]

Arrived yesterday, assembled/decorated today. All in all, very pleased. Glad I spent the money, as it kicks ass over the ones I've seen in our local stores. I'll get better at shaping it next year. And I'm gonna have to get another topper, the one I have just didnt work,

As promised, Duchess:

No lights



White LEDs



Colored LEDs (my fav)

[Duchess]

That's a beautiful, full & lush tree! The lights are gorgeous, I like the colored as well. I think it needs twice as many decorations, that's not a diss, you did a great job, it's just a personal observation.

I couldn't help but notice the picture on the wall. I really like that frame a lot!

Thanks for the pix!

[aussiefriend]

Gorgeous tree Kid, I am very jealous. I love the little Toy Soldier too.

[sally]

Nice tree, Kid. You remind me of a drunk, ugly version of Kathy Ireland.

[HairOfTheDog]

I like the white lights the best, but the multi-colored lights are cool too. It is a very nice real fake tree.

P.s. I don't know why the hell you remind sally of a drunk Kathy Ireland; that's just weird. You seem much more like Martha Stewart on DXM, to me.

Its so strange, I've got a lot more ornaments on there than what appears. They are all varying shades of red and silver, but for some reason, several of the shades dont show up in the picture. When I saw that picture on the computer screen, I had to go out and look at the tree again cuz I thought the same thing. Trust me, damned thing is loaded.

That picture frame is the main reason I bought that print (plus, the money went to charity), it is very cool, and fills that wall quite nicely.

Nice tree, Kid. You remind me of a drunk, ugly version of Kathy Ireland.

Ugly and Kathy Ireland should never be used in the same sentence. At 49 that woman is still stunning

Whats weird about those lights is that the same bulb puts out white, and colored, I just push a button to change. Never encountered that before.

Anyhoo, thanks for the compliments ladies, I'm a bit more in the spirit now.

[JsMom]

I would love to post a pic of my tree but this phone takes shitty pictures. :( Kid...Love the tree. You did a great job decorating it.

[ramseycat]

Very pretty tree. I can't believe that is a fake one. You do need more decorations though. I like lots of decorations. But you did good kid! I like the Toy Soilder too!

[Eat Shit And Die]

That's a long time to wait. I get impatient. Did you buy new decorations? Will you post pix? Huh? Huh? Huh?

My confirmation email says it will be here on the 12^th. I could have gotten it quicker, but wasnt gonna pay another $70 for shipping. Of course I'll post pics. Havent gotten any new decorations, not sure if I'll need them as already have a bunch. Speaking of pictures, a coworker of mine suggested I make my own Christmas cards this year. So I had the bright idea of using my camera, setting timer, and taking pic with pooch for the photo-card. Holy mother of God was that hard. Tried it over 40 times till my camera battery died. Fucking dog would not cooperate. Friend came over yesterday and took a good one. Here's one of the very many out-takes.

Just an observation Hair, but I kinda think you'd like Kid to give you a mustache ride?

He's single after all, and DOES like to travel.

FQ2 was this close to venturing to Idaho this past summer.

Yeah, she'd like that. Would never admit it...but that's cool.

I don't recall FQ2 ever mentioning I-dee-ho, must have missed that thread. I thought her schtick was the tropical island paradise.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I gotta go find my presents!

You must have been drunk. We had a torrid affair, then I dumped you for Crash, he got jealous of Tommy Lee and dumped me for Aussie, now I'm married to ESAD........I think.

And we have never been happier.

[RaisingAPrince]

We get a real tree every year. This one was way taller than it looked at the lot. Once we got it home and up we ended up having to trim some off the top because it was hitting the ceiling.



Also the pic I've chosen for my avatar for the season.

[HairOfTheDog]

My artificial tree; in all of its glory.



In case you missed it, it's sitting on top of the coffee table.

The frame is made of sticks and wines and it's filled with leaves, cloth, beads...hodge podge. I've had it for a lot of years and add fresh leaves and a couple of new little things that have some kind of meaning to me each year. It's kinda tradition now and I just can't quit it, no matter what a sad looking little tree it may be.

It finally feels like Christmas.

Merry Christmas all...

[OnBendedKnee]

Real gunpowder.
The fake stuff is for the birds.

If it puts a smile on your face, then it's defo not a sad looking tree, eh?

It puts a smile on my face AND it's a sad looking tree. I took a close up shot, but decided not to post it - it's a hobo tree! But, it's my hobo tree...
