I am a slacker gifter. Once i stopped slacking, one of the items is in backorder. Soon, giftee, soon.

I am a slacker gifter - however, I got in touch with my giftee ages ago to confess my supreme slackeriness - which has, indeed gotten out of control. HOwever, between the weather and my bad back - getting to the post office has been a bit of a project for me.

I'm a slacker gifter and an ungifted giftee, which makes me feel balanced out, at least. I'll throw my name into both rings.

Hey folks - if you haven't gotten a gift. Or if you are a santa who hasn't be able to get to the post office (or just did within the last week), drop me a note. I have made note of the alternate santas who posted above.

Before I send out anything, I will double check with Nilly to see if she has extra information. I'd ask for your notes by Friday and I will try to get responses out over the weekend.

OMG!! D. just came in carrying a box, and he was all "Uh, did you order something from THAILAND?" And I was all "Uh. No. Shit, here let me se...OMG OMG FLAIL, I got a present from FAY!"

SO. EXCITED.

And I opened up the box, and it smelled WONDERFUL. There was a beautiful dark teal hobo bag, embroidered and with tassels and beads and a medallion, which would have been present enough, but seriously, y'all? It was like one of those magic bags in fairy stories that is never empty!

I got:

Three scarves: an iridescent turquoise, amethyst and teal. SO PRETTY. And light, so I can wear them all summer.

A red coral bracelet with a wee crocheted flower.

A flowered makeup bag with sequins that held delicious incenses and soaps (Dan: Did you get lemongrass? Me: YES, YES I DID!).

A purple fan with filigreed cutouts, which I will be using at my wedding!!

A set of six pretty wooden chopsticks in embroidered holders with wee elephants on them.

A wooden sculpture of a little elephant with his trunk up in the air, and a wistful little expression on his face. So cute; it is on my desk.

A purse mirror with flowers on one side, and an golden elephant on the other.

And a fat blue cyclops/teddy bear keyring that is quite adorkable.

I love it so much! I'm so excited! THANK YOU, FAY!

Now that's a Secret Santa gift.

::does happy dance::

Hurrah! I'm sorry it was so slackerish, with the sending, but yay for getting there! And I'm delighted you liked it!

::does happy dance some more::

Oh, NO, Fay! I am also slacky Santa, so I am totally cool with it! VERY COOL with it; it was delightful, and I am so happy when I look at it!

Is the elephant a ring holder? D and I were looking at it, and I was all "From the back, it looks kinda like a small penis and and some ill-defined balls" and he was all "I was pretty much thinking that too."

Ahh, true love.

I love seeing all the happy dances. I just wish I could have been a fly on the wall when D brought in the package. Only, you know, not actually a fly, because ew.
