Sorry I didn't post this before but I've been quite busy with work.

Anyway, I got my gift the other day from DaveWadding! It was DVDs for Brother Bear and Alice In Wonderland!

Wow! I went to my mailbox today and guess what I found!












Bills! Credit card bills, electric bills, phone bills (gotta stop calling long distance to Prague), and a magazine! The bills are for the 'rents and the magazine is for the articles. That's right, the articles! You won't find any scantily clad women under my bed! Oh...that didn't sound right...

No, I didn't get my gift yet, just wanted to spread some good humor around. :P

BUT Amazon has sent me an e-mail saying that my order shipped to the...well, it's not Secret Santa, since I'm the person's Secret Santa. Well, my recipient will receive their gift next week, sooner than I expected because Amazon estimated that it would ship on Monday, not today. Oh well, they'll be happy earlier than expected, so go Secret Santa recipient! :D

Can't anyone read............Post when you receive your Secret Santa gift, not when you mail it...................how lame can one get...........except for Escapay, whose post I found very humorous, something we need these days.

Save the room and only post when you receive your gift, not when you send it.

Well, I was pretty bumed that I had to work at 8:30 in the morning, I wasn't in a good mood at all. Especially when they made me push carts inside the store but at least I got 5 bucks for it (long story).
So I come home and my dad askes me "hey did my cell phone come in the mail today?" and I was like "no... no man!" Then I look at the stair case and there was this cardboard box with an address on it. And I told my dad "it's right here, what are you talking aboot?" But it was actually for me. It just so happened to be my SS gift and let me tell you something that made my day. Thank you very much Escapay for Sword and the Stone one of my favorite Disney films.

Happy Holidays everybody!!!

Just to let my Secret Santa know, I won't be home for a couple of weeks, so my present will be in safe keeping if it gets there before I do, but I won't actually have it until then. :)

Went to the mailbox a few minutes ago and there were lots of things, my Reward Zone gift certificates, my electricity bill, and among other pieces of miscellaneous mail there was this mysterious brown envelope from England.

Wonderlicious was my UD Secret Santa and sent me a copy of "The Heavenly Kid".............one of my all-time favorite films. Thank you, and thank you for the very nice accompanying note. You are a real gem, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Hope my recipient likes their gift, it went out today.

That's actually only half your gift. Stupid Amazon shipped both items I got you separately because the other gift was apparently low in stock. When you receive a mysterious wrapped gift from Amazon in a couple of days with no name, that's mine (since I had assumed both gifts would ship in one package, I only attached a note to the American Original book).

I'm glad it came, Junkie! And I'm glad you liked the little note as well (on Wallace and Gromit paper, to top it off! :D).

I know I said that I was going to ship my present on Monday the week of Thanksgiving. I got a little side track so I wasn't able to ship it until today. So my recipient will receive it on Thursday. So make sure you check your door step. Yes I said door step. It's not that big but I doubt that it will fit in your mail box.

What a bad day. I woke up late and couldn't see a movie with friends, had a hell of a busy day at work, had loads of chores to do once I got home, and on top of it all I got a test back and got a D-. But the Bright Spot of My Day award goes to Garrett (Davina). Thank you so much for the DVD (Christmas with the Kranks) and the really nice card. You made the whole day worth it. :)
Cheers,
