    So, guys... It's almost time. HOW ABOUT THAT CHRISTMAS THEN.

    PM OR SKYPE ME FOR ADDRESS.

    If anyone wants to send presents, we can discuss good presenting - tl;dr, fun stuff like craft supplies, videogames, or cooking gear would probably be fun. No actual food unless you're VERY SURE it has no gluten in it. Dude loves musicals and podcasts so anything related would be good. :3

    I'd also like to get a bulletin board of Christmas cards, keychains, and dangly trinkets together, so he knows that he's not alone in New State.

    And finally, anyone who can get to the Midwest... Wanna have a Hella Party, sometime in January? :3 People are welcome to crash at my house, fair warning that I have two very fluffy cats.

    (Nick is allowed in if he wants, it's just fun to be VERY SNEAKY)

    I'm tragically car-less so I likely won't be able to make it over
    BUT I love the bulletin board idea
    I know sometimes good ones are expensive, so if you don't have one already, I can chip in for it & send some cards & stuff.

    thoughts on crayons& coloring books? they are hella calming for me, and I can find some very nerdy coloring books

    You're welcome any time you're in town, obviously!

    I've got a nice big one, so that should work well. :3 Might have to hit Joann Fabrics and cover it with something nicer than sky blue felt. Like pokemon. Pokemon are great.

    Crayons and coloring books sound awesome.

    I would be very down for Hella Party, though am out of country the 13-17.

    Gluten free chocolate? (you know I'm allergic to everything and thus Very Aware of allergens, even if I will occasionally poison myself for deliciousness)

    Badass. We will have HELLA PARTY. Going to play it a little by ear until Nick gets here and can decide on spooncount. (And weather, of course, since this is the Midwest in winter.)

    Yes, definitely. Gluten sensitivity is real high, to the 'severe allergy' sensitivity level, but chocolate is excellent. :3

    The Walmart Great Value truffles are gluten free, and every bit as good as Lindt, which are NOT gf. They have malt, which is barley-based death. Plus fuck Lindt on principle. A reminder, since I ran into it today, that anything Baileys flavoured is also verboten, it's grain-based.

    I'm drawing something, and I'll be sure to write a nice letter as well! :) Might be able to get some nice colored pencils too, but that all depends on finances.

    The biggest gluten danger in terms of buying chocolate is that anything containing "malt" is right out. Also avoid Godiva.

    I don't know shit about colored pencils but if you find nice ones, my budget can handle me dropping some money on to help, so lemme know

    ive heard good things about prismacolor colored pencils and my mom loves that brand for her adult coloring books. on the cheaper end i definitely wanna warn against sargent brand, they dont sharpen well and tend to crumble or the tips do that thing where they pop out of the pencil
