I'm going to mail my package tomorrow.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2013: That Was the Year That Was
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Out you go, 2013!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I won't mail my package until Thursday, but I WILL mail it!

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I arrived in Indiana to find packages awaiting me!
In one, there was yarny magnetic poetry, and TWO White-Dude-Lit-Fast-Compliant books (continuing the non-traditional tape pattern, this wrapping used blue electrical tape)! I am particularly excited about the James Baldwin, as I have read none of his stuff, but worked a show based on his life, so, yay!
ALSO! There was yarn! Pretty washable merino in honey colors. I will have to find a use for it.
Thank you, my elf!

If any of you late mailers are my secret Santa, I am at my parents' until the 29th, so don't sweat it.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'll be out of town until Thursday, myself. Be chill, Secret Santa!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Calli! You have excellent timing!
After my morning's adventures I came home to find a box tucked next to my door. I now have a very cozy hoodie pillow case, a very cool spoke light for my bike, and a beautifully delicate glass orb containing dandelion seeds. Oh, and the card is gorgeous! Thank you, Calli!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Juliana is my Secret Santa! I got cookies! There's more stuff coming! Thank you!!
I am!! And there is, but there's a hold-up with one of the non-perishable things and cookies should be in mouths ASAP. Yes.

Another package from my Secret Santa! And this one was shipped from the opposite end of the country as the first one! Clearly we have a cunning master-mind at work.
And I got a beautiful blue stocking cap (sadly I won't be wearing it to Kilimanjaro this year, we've put off that trip), and a signed copy of a book by Amber Benson!

Because books.
My Secret Santa gift came! I got a lovely 2014 calendar of vintage mid-century ads, and a beautiful pair of silver earrings -- I think they're a Celtic tree? They're gorgeous! Thank you, lisah!
