Glad everything made it there, I was a little worried about the ornament.
(the cactus and ornament were made by a local artist, i thought the cactus represented SD well- especially considering the 74 degree Christmas we just had. i figured the book would interest you and even fans of the most evil team in baseball deserve some comfort! :lol: )
Merry Christmas!

Thank you so much Farrellgirl99! Received on 12/15 and it’s all awesome! Sorry for the late public post, wife and 3 kids been passing a stomach bug back and forth which has adddd to the normal holiday chaos (and sending out my SS gift)

I got a Neutral Milk Hotel shirt, a Mets winter hat, chocolate and Star Wars socks that I wore to the Last Jedi. Thank you so much! So thoughtful and awesome!

Why is the file too big when I try and post the pic?

You're so sweet! I wouldn't necessarily worry too much, it my past experiences it has always taken quite a bit for SS packages to reach me. Donkeys get tired under the head and all that... :lol:

It still is crazy season, let's see how the following weeks go by, let's not lose all hope :aoa:

I have a package waiting for me at the post office! Unfortunately this post office is only open from 9-5.30 and I’m at work so I’ll pick it up Saturday. :thumb:

Hey Mescal! Not only do I like Christmas presents that are late, I also like it when the box clangs! Thank you so much. I have three (strong) Belgian beers to try and three CD's by Belgain bands to listen too! I've listened to the one by Millionaire today and I am very impressed. I'm a sucker for new music on Spotify and receiving CD's from random bands I've never heard of is great.

I will drink the beer once I shift this Aussie Flu I've had for the last week. :rockon: :thumb:

:balls: :balls: :balls: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

There was a fucking note telling you that that present was for adults! I really didn't mean for your kids to open that one. God damn it.

I hope you enjoyed the presents. I'm going to show myself off for this one.

That is really, really funny. I think we can safely assume no children were harmed in the staging of these photos.

Mescal, you made the wait worthwhile again. Thank you for making me smile and laugh my ass off today.
