Please do! It's only another 3 years until I might see a 1000+ next to my name.

3. My secret is robots
Of course, what that means is an entirely different secret.

6. I think the ones who are dead are probably pretty hideous by this point
What with the decomposition and all.

5. One brother and my wife to go
Got everything else done in the past few weeks.

Have absolutely no idea what to buy my brother--I'm thinking a Harvard sweatshirt since he goes to Yale.

8. Yeah, good "awwww" gift
She's always talked about wanting to start her own Snow Village collection after seeing some of my mother's. I'm going to buy her the first one, and then each year we'll add another.

9. Good call!
Collections are always great to add to at Christmas and Birthdays. You'll never not know what to get her again. :)

12. I'm terrified she's going to decide to start collecting horses soon
She's been riding for a very long time, and sooner or later she's going to want a stable.

Now that will be a fun collection.

15. Those require a bit more upkeep cost than the Snow Village.
Although, I have been seeing a lot of horses on craigslist that people are trying to re-home.

I think they are having trouble with monetarily keeping these animals in the economy.

Good luck with that collection if it arises.

16. She found a horse adoption group attached to the group that fostered our kitties
She's appealing to my soft nature to help poor abandoned horses.

20. I'm sure she'll eventually win out.
You're just putting up the "token resistance", as my husband calls it.

Congratulations on getting to 500!! :toast:

19. This was your 500th?
"8. Yeah, good "awwww" gift

How anticlimactic. But at least it was kind.
