Well it turns out my gift had to be ordered online. It wouldnt get to me in time to send it out by the 5th so I just had them send it direct. No nifty note or fancy packaging. :\

RoG's suggestion from earlier may help

|
will be sending mine out tomorrow.
|
I never send letters with my gifts or let them know who its from. Usually let them figure it out.
|
I might do that PM thing. I also like the idea of making them figure it out. My only concern is it shows up with nothing indicating its from me or is related to the SS. Although I bet they can put two and two together.
|
My gift shipped yesterday with an apology.
they are nice useful gifts....kinda boring like what Aunt Linda might get you. I just couldn't figure out how to ship the awkwardly shaped blowgun I spotted at Tuesday Morning. |
I hope its me because I could really use some new socks and undies.
|
ah man.....Apparently the paperwork fedex filled out when I dropped off my package wasnt enough for them. now I gotta print off a form and fax it to them if i want the package to get moving again.....should delay my package for a day or two.

IT'S AWAY!

Inspiration for next year! |
Actually I hope Leader got me because I bet he is sending out a bad ass one of a kind action figure. :(

Probably should have done that again. It was a neat idea. |
Thats pretty cool.
|
I have no one to take pictures for me, so I might end up getting a friend to screencap from webcam instead :D THANK YOU FOR ALL THE LUCHA STUFF!
I also sent mine out today! I hate the schedule I have, since I only have one day a week where I could possibly mail stuff. DONE NOW. |
I know what I'll send. I just have to wrap it tonight.
|
I received my gift about 30 minutes after my last post. Although something very un-Christmassy awaited me when I answered the door. There was a C.O.D on my item so I had to pay some cash to get it. That's customs for you. I guess.
I'll get the pictures up tomorrow, along with revealing my SS because I sluethed my way into figuring it out. Also I do like the gift :) just not paying for it. |
Who sends a Christmas gift COD???
|
I got mine today too. I haven't opened the present yet because I must devise my story. hehe!
|
I apologize, I certainly didn't check anything that should've caused them to charge you COD. Maybe it was just a customs issue? If I can make it up somehow, I'd certainly like to: un-Christmassy indeed.
I hope you enjoy the present at least. |
Holy Crap! Greatest Gifts Ever!
So my Secret Santa was Ex-Leper and I can't stress enough how amazing these gifts are. So amazing in fact that I am going to to a two part post, one to showcase the gifts and another to show them in action.
let's begin. How to put together the greatest secret santa gift ever First off, Ex-Leper put together an excellent card which reminds us of the Halloween season gone by. and had some really thoughtful things to say Take a look at the fine and festive packaging. I mean look at that shit! It's fucking amazing! The first thing I picked up was the fantasmic Holiday mix cd. I was sure to put it on so I'd have the proper background music while opening the rest of the loot. Note: This is no ordinary Holiday mix, it has holiday music from Ren & Stimpy, Ween, and Wesley Willis just to name a few. Onto the unwrapped gift awesomeness A spectacular Scott Pilgrim bookmark! A bag of life sustaining smarties! Onto the wrapped goodness. The first thing I opened blew me away! Topps Fright Flicks trading cards! How cool is that?!!! I am big on horror film memorabilia, so perfect. ( I am letting them simmer in their perfectly intact packaging before curiosity gets the better of me and I open them...which will be soon I assure you) and SNL trading cards! specifically the years I watched SNL the most! A good representation of how I felt by this point of opening these gifts. A classically packaged Slinky! I am a sucker for nostalgically packaged toys! An awesome robot magnet! Perfect for hanging my Nicolas Cage with a Snow Monkey picture on my office wall! A fucking catapult! Amazing! I am in the process of painting and gluing it together so I will have some pics of it in action later. and what might this be? what else but a perfect addition to my forthcoming tree! Some marvelous pins from a grab-bag of treasures! Fantasticle keychains from a grab-bag of treasures! The best collection of figurines and genuine canadian gold ever! And to top it off, an awesome collection of Horror films on dvd. I've been meaning to watch Frogs for a long time. I will post some screen-caps from it later. Can't wait to watch it! THANK YOU EX LEPER! You put so much thought and effort into this gift and it's simply amazing. I can't thank you enough. I will post some pics of the goods in action soon. Thank you, Thank you, Thank You, Harry Lime :xmas3 |

I was very nervous about how they would go over. Glad to know my first year was successful.

For the meantime, Replicant is able to ward off the deathly machismo of El Machete. Finding a corner of safety, Replicant sat down her christmas gifts. Ready to open them up. Quote:
But Replicant managed to conjure up a BFG (let's just pretend, shall we) to take El Machete to task. ... Quote:
