Roombarific-
Ok, here's my real post. That one about Andy was just a joke. It's not a joke that I think he is hot; he most definantly is, but I think most people know that already. I've been dying to tell everyone about my favorite Christmas gift. I got many nice gifts from my family, friends, students and Andy, but there is one that puts a smile on my face everytime I see her.
Now, to most women, getting a vacuum cleaner for Christmas is right up there with getting a new can opener or blender (Unless you get the Amazing Bullet.- As Seen On TV-Those are awesome!) But the vacuum cleaner I got for Christmas is like having your own personal maid. Yes, my Roomba is preety sweet. Andy and I gave her a name, Lupe. I know that sounds terribly racist, but since I'm half Latin it's okay.
The Roomba vacuums up everything and goes anywhere. And when she's done, she docks herself and recharges. I just push a button and little Lupe does her job while I cook or go about my daily chores. For a pet owner this is a dream come true. Now, vacuuming everyday is not a lofty goal, but mere child's play with my little circular friend.
The only downside is that her and Jackson have not gotten off to a very good start. Their relationship is a bit tumultuous. But seeing that my house is so much less hairy now, Jackson will just have to learn to get along with this new member of our family.
A close second to my favorite gift was my red Kit Kat clock. It's eyes and tail move back and forth. It's very cool.

I'm pretty sure Ellie's reaction would be the same and as a OCD sufferer, the Roomba is a dream come true.
Very nice. Sure beats your last post! (By the way I think I was Andy's only negative comment, for the record)
I imagine there are lots of Lupe's who practice law, or own businesses...it just so happens this one picks up all your dust and pet hair. I for one won't think less of you two bigots for it.
That was GREAT - made me laugh! Very cool gift!
Jackson looks pretty darn tough retreating from Lupe! :) Very funny! :)
Yes, Jackson is all bark and no bite. Well, maybe a little bite.
That was great! I want one of those things. How great is that, it does all the work for you. My girls would keep it busy 24/7.
The Roomba is the best gift I've ever given anybody. Mostly because I reap substantial benefits, since I'm often called upon to vacuum. Plus it's like having my own droid, which for a Star Wars dork is pretty much as good as it gets.
This is seriously the best gift I've ever received. I can do a bunch of other things and just Lupe do her thing. Now, our house is vacuumed every day. I love it.
Very cool gift. I've been looking at these but wondering if the animals would try to destroy it when it was laying around. Lupe does take breaks doesn't she? ;)
That's a neat vacuum cleaner. Kind of like a small mechanical goat.
