I've messaged some of you and I know several gifts are en-route, but if you have not received a gift, could you email me or PM me on FB?

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2016: We know the world didn't end, because, check it out!
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.
Go away, 2016.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I put my gift in the mail today, so I hope my poor giftee will have joy soon.
2016 sucked a lot on the macro and micro levels. I ate my depression so my doctor will not be happy with me when I have my physical next week. I blame Trump.
I just can't spell out what sucked for me personally. It's still too depressing to think about. But, I'm still here and I still have you guys, that helps in so many ways.
general hugs around, we all need them.

I also got a calendar, and earrings! I laughed out loud at the note on the calendar, which is of tattoos, that said "only two of the months are guys!"

Thank you to my C. Kret Santa for the wonderful "Buffy staked Edward" tshirt that was waiting for me when I got back to work last week! I saw the Redbubble package and got so!excited! 'cause Redbubble always means awesomeness. :-D Also, the FIVE pairs of socks that I ordered with the gift certificate came in yesterday, and suddenly the coming week is going to be so much better. (Pics in the b.org FB group.)
(ETA: msbelle told me there was also a donation made in my name--I never saw the email, maybe it landed in my junk box?--but thank you for that too!)
And I totally forgot to thank the Buffista Elf for the hilarious Cats Against the World expansion pack for Cards Against Humanity! Gotta get a card game together so I can see how these babies play out. :-D Thank you, msbelle!

Consuela, just getting caught up and saw the news about your dad. I'm so sorry for your loss. You've shared so many stories over the years, he was like a part of this community. {{{hugs}}} to you and your family.

I got a Dragonfly coloring book (which I almost bough the other day) , colored pencils (72 colors!), spicy tabasco chocolate, and this amazing Doctor Who pocket watch -that can be worn as a pocket watch or an necklace and a pendant!! I'm waiting for day light to take pictures/

Thank you, Laura! I'm so excited to listen to Aristotle and Dante. You're amazing!

quester, thank you so much!
I picked up my package today. I posted a photo in the FB group, but I am positively delighted by a treasure trove of goodies:
Bacon soap, bacon bandades, a lovely magnet, a bobble head General Leia, a Rogue One calendar, Star Wars stickers, a Wonder Woman ornament, a 3-d metal Enterprise model to put together, and a Star Trek communicator pin.
I've died and gone to favorite things heaven. I should probably try to stay there for the next four years, at least.
Thank you!!
