Please see the thread right above yours first:

(Requests should go into MR Discussion, not MR Deals.)

I'd suggest looking down the thread titles below: it looks like you could do two trips SEA-MHT (Manchester, N.H.) or one trip (padded) to Germany right now; that would yield 10K miles for around $500 -- plenty reasonable given the lateness of the season.

go do one of those FRA or TXL runs, definitely enough

If you can leave on the afternoon of the 14th from SFO you could go to MUC for the weekend for $536 ai.
SEA-MUC Dec 28-31 $527ai. Problem here is if there was a delay and you could not make it back on the 31st.
Both these fares were on Orbitz.

Not too much padding required if you do FRA from PDX - routings through ORD or IAD both yield 6K+ each way. I've done FRA runs 2 of the last 4 years (opted for GIG instead this year, need more miles :D). It's relatively easy and painless, just give yourself enough time for the turnaround.

Good luck...
