ganked from many:

On the twelfth day of Christmas, neitherday sent to me...

Twelve squirrels suffering

Eleven strings writing

Ten crows a-kissing

Nine cats birdwatching

Eight trees a-scrying

Seven cigars a-walking

Six politics a-nothing

Five ci-i-i-ivil liberties

Four zebra finches

Three haunted houses

Two psych wards

...and a luna in an astronomy.

Get your own Twelve Days:

I had a great time yesterday. neodarkling came over for tea. And a wonderful tea we had. pillowkisser cam home in the middle of our tea. With her came posterchild, someone I had never met before. The two of them joined us for tea. I very much enjoyed meeting posterchild. I hope she comes around again sometime. I fully intend to be having many small tea gatherings from now on.

This afternoon, dan4th surprised me with a visit. We went to the dreaded Saturday-before-Christmas mall. Very entertaining. With my crimson silk bathrobe billowing behind me, I walked with him watching the normals rush for last minute gifts that will probably be returned by people they don't really like. Normals are so entertaining to observe. Scurrying here and there, unaware of the Greater World around them. I swear I'll never figure them out.

Of course, I say this with my own giftgiving endeavor in shambles. However, I will be invoking dan4th's 12 days of Christmas theory, and thusly have until January 6^th to get people presents.
