My Secret Satan arrived today!

When I got to the post office I see a package had arrived. When it was given to me, I saw it was covered in strange ancient South American inscriptions. It looked like a foreign language....

I got the mystery package home:
Image
Clearly I was so excited, my hands shook when taking the shot...

I tore it open and readied myself for extracting the mystery goodies:
Image

Out come the goodies!! Three different types of treats, a mystery hat of some sort and a thick envelope???
Image

I opened up the decidedly heavy envelope and in it was a lovely card and some strange photos.... of one of my favourite threads!!!
Image

Here are all the samples of our cataloging effort:
Image

And here are the samples with their owners' names added.. In reality though, we all own them...
Image

Three different Mexican treats, a sweet as head warmer, a collection of photos from my fave thread and of course a lovely card!!

Thanks a lot Perkana, these are lovely and awesome Secret Santa gifts, thanks for going to so much trouble! You're ace! :wave: :rockon:


creep, you're a lucky man... :lolol:

By the way, I sent it since Nov. 21 and it left Mexico on Dec. 24. By the state of the envelope, I'm glad the lollipops look in good condition.

Yay! I was worried about Nausea's gift not making it. :rockon:

Love the mattress thread photos. :lol:


So, only Larry is left to receive a gift.

Warped mentioned she got a notice from the post office but has not posted yet. :waits:

Yeah, Amazon fucked up my present for Warped. They fucked up the labels, apparently, which is why she can't get the package.

I'll be sending her another one at Friday the latest. I've been a bit snowed under at work and I don't want to be stressed out when I do my Christmas shopping :bigrin:

Weird how long it took to leave the country.. one month of processing or just waiting.. then a month to arrive..

Still, I'm glad it arrived and loved it all! Thanks!


Note to anyone unlucky enough to get me for next year's Secret Santa - post eaaaaaaaaaarly!!! hahahaha

the police probably opened it and were as confused as fuck about whether or not the mattress pics had any hidden meaning :noclue:


the cia is most likely watching all of us now...and trying to find more about who "etty" is and what she has to do with mattresses

first rule of mattress thread,

NOBODY TALKS ABOUT MATTRESS THREAD!1!
