Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2014: so long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, good bye...  

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.

Buh bye, 2014.

oh Shir! I got your package. um, there was breakage. I will post full details later with pictures, but y'all Shir sent mac and me the sweetest things, despite the postal services of probably both countries treating the package with undue force, I still have sweet gifts.

Oh oh. Glad you got my package but sorry about breakage - I really, really hope it was just one thing and not all of the three breakablish things.

Nicest get sweetest. It's a rule and all.

the oil bottle and 1 sheep broke. there were just 2, right?

so the package was all soaked which is why I think it got delayed. I got it wrapped in 2 layers of plastic.

Oy. Yeah, only 2 sheep (is it beyond glue-it-back?). And well, at least the alcohol made it. I presume. I hope.

No worries. I understated and I'd happily wait. It's something to look forward to. And I'm sorry things got so broken this week, packages and people alike.

You rest, you.

I will try to remember to post pics tonight.

Has anyone not sent their package? Has anyone not received?

JZ is still working on her outgoing package, I know. She's been slammed by her office move and mucho overtime. But I think it can get out the door this weekend.

I just got a package from Indiana Hawaii! With delightful smelling Kona coffee. So at last my Secret Santa is revealed. Muchas gracias, DebetEsse!

I'm not sure - I got one part of a present and was told (through Elfster) that the rest of the present would come after the new year. I don't know if it got sent and went missing, or if it didn't get sent, or if the beer caramels are the whole present.
