You're welcome, Sue!
the bears (gone already!)
Were they edible, or did they escape?
I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

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.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

As long as it wasn't a polar bear, we should all be safe.
Helena, I'm glad you liked your gifties! I didn't realize until after I packed it all up I'd neglected to put my name anywhere. I was worried with sending it to Canada that the box wouldn't show up until March.

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

I can say right now that Raq is NOT a bad secret santa. At ALL. Cause I still have stuff she gave me (and still get compliments on it)!!

Got my best presents this year. New godson and donation to Little League for LB.
In that spirit, should you find the need to donate, help rebuild my home one house at a time New Orleans could use the help. They're going house by house, cleaning and sticking up "No Buldozing" signs.
X-post with Natter.

Thanks so much SailAweigh! (now that I can thank you specifically)
Also, (fun thing that may only be entertaining to me) I just realised that while you (SailAweigh) were my Seekrit Santa, my sister (Ouise) was yours. It's almost like you had each other (only not quite, because I don't intend to share any of my precious goodies with her... mwahaha)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm a complete slacker, but my secret santa gift is going to be mailed out today. Really sorry that it's so late.
Also, if I'm one of the giftees that people are worried about not having received the gift yet (wow, that's horrible sentence structure), it's because I ended up being away from DC for longer than I planned. But if it's been received at my building, then it'll be waiting in the front office for me when I get back.

Oh, yay, I thought that but wasn't sure. And thanks again!
Lilty, glad you liked it. I had fun picking the pictures to put in.
