She's still MY lifesaver right now.
I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2006: You're ON THE LIST!!!
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 2006? Don't think we've forgotten about you.

No worries. Given the past week, it's entirely possible that I did, and just lost my mind. On the bright side, my conference is over. One of the sessions I did went pretty good, the other was great, if I do say so myself. More importantly, there were no major snafus (including with food, which I was organizing). I could sleep for a week now, but alas, I have to go to work in the morning.
I know, this should probably go in Natter, but I don't even know how far behind I am there.

I have a new theory about my slacker Santa. I think they are trying to set a new Buffista record for the latest gift arrival.
So, go you!
I'm kidding! :: shakes wee fist! ::
And my Santee sent me a funny encouraging card, thanks Amy!

They will have to compete with my slacker santa, then.

They will have some hard work to do with my Santa last year. Although it totally wasn't her fault, the PO lost the package ( shakes fist ), but she gave me a lovely shawl at the F2F, which totally made up for it.
Hmm, I guess it doesn't count, since she actually did send it on time, I just didn't receive it.

Vortex, I was just thinking sadly about that first package, and the really cool necklace I'd picked up at a craft show that was in it. Not to mention Shawl #1, and other nice things. Shawl #2 was way more elaborate, though, and significantly nicer yarn, too.
Anyway, speaking of late but worthy Secret Santa gifts, mine ARRIVED last night! And it was a nice heavy box, too, with many many wrapped things that I stopped to admire! Meditation Balls! Knitting Calendar! Finding Nemo! Raspberry dressing! Monkey clips! And wrapped up really nicely, four boxes of Tastee Kakes! :-)
Clearly, JenP studied hard. :-) Thank you, Sekrit Santa! It may be late, but it was right on target.

Oh, good - I'm glad you liked the assortment. I couldn't find the One True Gift (I don't even know what it was supposed to be, but it never made itself known to me in my various shopping adventures), so I went for a mix that I hoped you'd like, and I'm glad you did!
(Still... sorry for the lateness)

I'm so not in a position to cast aspersions on a late gift, you know? And it's all so very neat....

I'm officially over my slacker santa. Lovely Laga just sent me a gift box with funny and chocolate and cute in it!
I got a little plush rhinoceros, a bunny shaped lip pop and a beanie-headed M&M guy filled with ... well, it's empty now.
Thanks Laga!
