'War Stories'
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 2007? Don't think we've forgotten about you.
Jars, since it has been exactly a month past the day I mailed your secret santa gift, I'm outing myself. I found the receipt from 12/27 but cannot find out what happened to the box after it left the post office.
The fellow at the counter told me that I could track via the customs label but that has turned out not to be the case. (for reference, that number is #LC60358090US)
Please let me know if it ever shows up. I'll try to replace the package when I can. I'm so sorry.
Oh, bonny - that's not your fault! Stupid post office. It's nice enough to know that there was a package, and that you put that effort into it.
I could just cry.
I read in your profile that you like silver jewelry, so there was a nice bracelet and some silly other things...and now I'm afraid that the customs xray may have made it too attractive.
Still, I'm hoping the box just went on walkabout and will ultimately find its way to you.
Heavy sigh.
A collection of locally-made candies from Ailleann!
Yay, it arrived! I hope you like them!
You know, a month is not unheard of in International Post, especially around Xmas time. I sent something to Kat in the second week of December, and it arrived in LA only 10 days ago.
The Big Box Of Buffista Baby Clothes I sent to Stephanie (in PR, so not even technically international!) took over a month to arrive - I can't remember the exact timing, but I was sure it had been lost in transit.
That's encouraging.
I guess I need to not take seriously the promises of first class mail.
Yeah, a friend of mine in the office had stuff sent from Canadia over a month ago, and it still hasn't arrived. I shall wait optimistically, anyway!
Canadia
Hee hee! I call it Canadia, too!
Sometimes I call it Canadialand.
