(If you told him I said you could open it now, would he go for it?)
Probably, but if there's nothing perishable there, I figure I might as well let him have the illusion of being the boss of me on this one issue. He has also confiscated the boxes from my mother containing gifts.
This is sort of my decorating theme.
Mine is: "Early American Garage Sale"
I have everything ready for my giftee except a box to mail it in. D'oh!
I didn't even wrap mine. I was so concerned about positioning it in the box so that one part wouldn't get all messed up that it didn't even occur to me. There's some gold tissue, though, that I bought specially. Dur.
So, um, giftee, when you open the box, you're opening the present. Just a heads-up if you happen to be a Wait Until X-Mas person.
The already opened presents sound wonderful. I tried to do well, but I fear my giftee may suffer in comparison. However, if all works well with the USPS, said giftee
may
at least suffer on time.
I fear my giftee may suffer in comparison
I can testify that there is absolutely no suffering involved when being your giftee.

You are too kind, but I hope that this year's giftee agrees with you instead of with me.

If my S. Santa hasn't mailed my present, I am out of town for a week, so don't sweat it too much.

Uh, yeah. I did that, too. So whomever gets a package with a return address of "Slacker Secret Santa Steph [lastname]," nothing inside is wrapped. Boxing it all up was festive enough, in my book.
Quester I got the package! And the timing was perfect, I haven't had such a great day. I loved opening the box and finding all the purple packages!
So many new dragonflies and I love the address book, I needed a new one! And the pandas! The magnets are all up on my fridge and the panda's hanging out on my monitor. The cookbook looks really cool and the bath bomb smells wonderful!
Thank you so much!!!
Got the last part of my package today! With any luck it will go out tomorrow.
