My parents signed me up for that, and put the adoption certificate in a box with a plush manatee. I spent months showing the certificate to everyone who came into our house.

Crow Jane posted:Maybe you could also buy some gourmet treats or a nice collar or toy for her dog to go along with it Yeah this is a touchy area because she's quite obese and trying to lose weight. (not the dog, my sister) I found these deer antlers that were naturally shedded and left in the wild and collected from the forest floor, I guess dogs love chewing on em and its full of mineral nutrients they need. Not sure if that would trigger or not. So.. maybe a nice dog toy an an african dog sponsorship ladies? I'm thankful for your help. [edit] how do i pass the crazy test for a dog treat? she loves tennis balls, maybe some of the "un-breakable" balls which she has broken or similar? Seriously don't know, this dog knows how to fuckin' chew. (she's a super sweet black/lab/pit mix and is terrified of all males because she was abused as a pup. She lets me pet her but she's very wary of any dudes that are not boney. Muscle or fat or over 6 ft she's scared of you if you are male) Wendigee fucked around with this message at 02:17 on Dec 9, 2013 |

if someone objects to an animal sponsorship they are either a huge jerkhole or just too too too far gone

Well the thing is the reason you're doing it is because your sister is super sincere about animals and caring about them. Like I said the most important thing about gifts is putting a little thought into them about what the person relates to. You? You probably really don't care about a dog in Africa. I don't either and would consider it a lovely gift I'd accept but not be thrilled over.

I don't own any tacky Christmas jewelry, am I ladying wrong? I absolutely hate Christmas, so the idea of themed jewelry does nothing for me. I've got a bunch of ladystuff on the way via mail. Perfume, hand cream, eye shadow, bath and body stuff. Plus a metric fuckton of presents. Presents for the kid, presents for the fiance, presents for my potential future MIL and my kid's godmother, presents for two different Elfster (secret santa organizing site) exchanges, presents for friends. I freaking love shopping, both for myself and other people.

I don't own any Christmas stuff either... I guess i have plenty of festive jewelry, but nothing particularly seasonal. I did have to go to an ugly Christmas sweater party for work a few years back, but I donated the horrible thing not long after. Speaking of work, I still don't know if I have a snow day today or not. Waiting is the worst, I need to know what mode to be in.

I don't care for jewelry, so my tacky Christmas thing is music. Blast those carols 24/7 until my ears bleed. FYI the best carols are the religious ones, I don't care if you're not religious because I love them and I'm not at all

Aw no you're all right, I'm the worst at ladying, I compensate by just being really obvious about how terrible at fashion I am Which is why the Santa earrings What I don't understand is why ugly jumpers are apparently cool now, everywhere I go there's someone who looks like they should know better sporting a big jolly reindeer on their chest and I'm like, huh, apparently I've accidentally become less dorky than actual fashion is

I have ONE necklace I care about. I bought it for the beads (like little pointy cones) since I was using them to make plush animals at the time. I never got around to that one so I just had this necklace around. Now I wear it because it's pointy  .

Knee socks go well under boots during winter, when all warmth must be conserved, lest death take you.

everyone stuck for christmas gifts for ladies, this shop is really cool: http://www.ebay.com.au/usr/wendigoeater2 it's where a group of huichol artisans from near jalisco sell their folk art, and it's super beautiful and relatively cheap. a lot of indigenous mexican people make their living from making and selling traditionally-inspired hand-done beadwork, weaving and sculpture, and huichol are leaders in this kind of folk art economy. at this shop you can get peyote flower necklaces for under $20, beaded sculptures for about $25, beaded gourd bowls for under $40, and some pieces of jewellery like earrings and bracelets and simpler necklaces for like $10. i have a gourd bowl that i hung on my wall from them and my mum bought me a necklace from there for a present this year because i asked her to, it's a really cool shop and the money goes back into the community which is great because huichol peoples make a lot of their meagre living from selling their art. there are lots of other suppliers of huichol folk art but i've only bought from this group so far also if you have a knitter or crocheter in the family and want to buy a really cool, meaningful and vaguely humanitarian gift, there's also this site: http://store.darngoodyarn.com/ it's run by an american ex-military woman who decided to do something decent after fighting for imperialism, so now she sells recycled sari yarn which is child-labour-free and pays nepalese and indian women a living wage for hand-spun/dyed yarn. $13 for 150 yards seems dear, but that's because the yarn industry is revolting and operates primarily in countries were workers aren't payed a living wage and are sacked and left to die in the gutters coughing their lungs out after breathing in fibres for years. ethical wool is hard to find, and this yarn is ethical imo
