Goodbye and Good Riddance 2005: the Year of the Penguin

Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Oh, and 2005? Don't think we've forgotten about you.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Woo hoo! I have been well and truly gifted. Thank you so much, Maidengurl. For the record, you are not a dork. The note was more than sufficient for me to figure out who you were.

I made out like a bandit: penguin chocolate, a penguin ornament, champagne-vanilla bubble bath, PMS soap (hee!), Republic of Tea Red Tea Good Hope Vanilla Rooibos tea, shea butter lip balm, vanilla blackberry body souffle, caramel creme latte chocolate, and beautiful embossed note cards. I shall have a lovely time pampering myself, and then writing a thank you note to one of the best people I know.

Oh, and the package arrived on the 24th, but I didn't get the notice until I returned from PA yesterday evening.

Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart!

edit: To my seekrit santa--I'm waiting for one more piece of the puzzle. Your present should be going out this week. I hope it will be worth the wait.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Man, I keep reading about the stuff people get and feeling like I felll down on the job. But I really loved the stuff I sent, so I hope it'll be okay and my giftee will see it the same way.

Man, I keep reading about the stuff people get and feeling like I felll down on the job.

I do this every year too.

I caught a cold on Boxing Day, so last night Robert agreed to watch Mal and I took a nice long hot bath, using the orange scrub and mitt and scented candles, and read Batman. AmyLiz, thank you again! It was perfect and much needed.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I'm so glad you liked the goodies Maria. You made me go all squeeeee this morning.

I had written a special card for on top of everything and then missed putting it in. I had initially forgotten about the other note that was with the cards, but then I hoped that was enough.

If I mailed out my present on Monday, December 19, and have yet to hear anything from my Santee, when should I start to get worried?

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

I'd be worried now, Tom, unless they've been out of town. I mailed several packages on Monday and most of them arrived on the following Wednesday and Thursday.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I mailed several packages on Monday and most of them arrived on the following Wednesday and Thursday.

Like mine, which I adore, but didn't get until I got home. Thank you Deena!

I think it would depend on where it was going...

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I think if it was my present you should worry. Otherwise, eh.

I think it would depend on where it was going..

True, though I sent mine from Cleveland and the ones going to the east and west coasts got there on Wednesday and the ones going to the middle of the country got there on Thursday. They were all sent priority or first class. That could make a difference.

I'm so glad you got it and like it Perkins! yay!
