Some of us have no money! Or get sick at inconvenient times. Or are just terrible about getting to a post office in general.

All three of those are true right now.

Secret santa-ee, I was the last person they let into the post office before locking the door yesterday. They say it will take 2-3 days, so you are looking at either tomorrow or Monday, I guess. And if anything doesn't make it, some hot glue should take care of it.

october1983 · « **Reply #202 on:** 23 Dec 2010, 11:24 »

Yeah, I'm hoping to get my gift in the mail tomorrow, but obviously won't be there for a bit as it's got to travel some distance - between having no money because I didn't have a job, and then having no time because I started a job, it's been hard to get stuff done in time, sorry! But I will try to get it all sorted as soon as possible.

JOHN HOW DID YOU GET ME TWICE
...
SERIOUSLY LAST TIME WE DID THIS YOU GOT ME
...
HOW
...
PS SWEETEST THINGS EVER Except for the chocolate, I don't eat chocolate, I hate it, but I will regift it to my mom who loves chocolate.
...
PPS Except that this book reminds me that there weren't that many awesome hardcore girls getting rep'ped
...
PPPS Which makes me sad

Huh, so it was! Blame Jace. Boooooo Jace.

But yeah, I'm glad you liked it! Sorry about the chocolate! I couldn't well ask you, so. I'll make it up to you next Xmas!

As for myself, I am going to be gone until the 3rd, so if my package comes in the meantime I will not know it!

Jace · « **Reply #204 on:** 23 Dec 2010, 21:00 »

I just drew names from a hat.
I actually wrote down all of your names, cut them up and put them into my hat.
fucking old school

Anyways, yeah my present is going to be sent out after xmas because of no-time-no-money issues that will be resolved soon.

Joseph · « **Reply #205 on:** 23 Dec 2010, 21:48 »

I will try and send mine tomorrow but if not immediately after christmas and I'm sorry.

Whoever has me, if you can't send it or haven't sent it and it should arrive after January 3rd, you'll need to send it to a different address. I guess let Jace know if that's the case?

bainidhe_dub · « **Reply #206 on:** 02 Jan 2011, 17:51 »

dude did you get your box yet? i was not about to spent sixty damn dollars on the trackable shipping so i hope it got to you okay.

allison · « **Reply #207 on:** 02 Jan 2011, 21:19 »

Dear Shane, I would like to thank you for the amazing package you sent me. It is really really lovely and I have shown off my Kate Beaton book to every person I know, like it is a new baby or something. You are the best and I hope you get something equally as lovely.

SirJuggles · « **Reply #208 on:** 02 Jan 2011, 22:47 »

Sooo... My break actually just ended, so I'm back at school now. If my person hasn't sent their package yet I can totally drop the new address on you no probs. And if it's in the mail now and I left just a day too soon, well... eh no biggy, I'll be home to visit in a few weeks anyway so I'll get an awesome reminder of Christmas!

Barmymoo · « **Reply #209 on:** 03 Jan 2011, 06:50 »

That reminds me. I must post my secret santa gift.

Metope · « **Reply #210 on:** 03 Jan 2011, 07:45 »

Yeah, I am terrible! I had mine almost done in Norway and I was going to send it out fairly soon, but I managed to go back to Glasgow and forgot to bring the present. Now I have to figure out something else, and on top of that I'm really sick, so person, I am so, so sorry for being this terribly late, this sucks! Oh, and whoever has me, if you haven't sent out the package yet you should probably pm Jace or something and get my UK address, since I'm not in Norway anymore.

Cheers! You probably shouldn't treat a book like a baby, though.

Woo Rosie Woo! I now have TWO xmas decorations! (the other is a frosty the snowman towel on my oven door handle.) Thanks so much!

(Sorry, haven't been on the forums/this thread in a while.)

(to my secret santa person -- sorry I am lazy I have everything (it's not much and just a random collection of things I think are funny) but haven't sent it yet. This week hopefully!)

bainidhe_dub · « **Reply #214 on:** 03 Jan 2011, 13:55 »

Yayyy I am so glad you got it/like it! I was afraid it was kinda a cop-out.

mberan42 · « **Reply #215 on:** 04 Jan 2011, 13:12 »

To my secret santa person -- your package has been fedex'd.

Jace · « **Reply #216 on:** 04 Jan 2011, 14:21 »

I am sorry my santa but I am like $300+ dollars in debt and I am working on getting you something it will happen by end of Jan for sure!

ZJGent · « **Reply #217 on:** 04 Jan 2011, 16:59 »

Santa gift totally posted today - all with a letter in with it as well, written in classic, old-school biro. Should arrive in 5 or 6 working days.

I mailed mine today. It was supposed to have a little box of "Magic Mushrooms" but they didn't fit in the flat-rate box and it was about to cost 2X as much to ship, so I ate them. They were chocolate with crispy cookie stems.

If only you could have gotten me a discount...

Liz · « **Reply #221 on:** 05 Jan 2011, 14:48 »

I could ship something to you with my discount? That's about it.

Barmymoo · « **Reply #222 on:** 05 Jan 2011, 14:48 »

I sent mine today too! It's a good day for gifts, and Christmas doesn't even end til tomorrow so we just made it!

I nearly didn't manage to fit it in the padded bag though, and I had already written the address on a bag I hadn't yet paid for - but I got it to fit by sheer will power. I hope my person is feeling strong when it arrives!

I finally shipped my gift today - sorry about the delay, Secret Santee!

Liz · « **Reply #226 on:** 06 Jan 2011, 15:31 »

OKAY MATT WHAT SHOULD I SHIP YOU?

CURRENTLY I HAVE... A LOT OF SNOW.

SirJuggles · « **Reply #227 on:** 06 Jan 2011, 15:47 »

Every little child wants a beautifully-Fedex'd box of snow for Christmas.

Metope · « **Reply #228 on:** 06 Jan 2011, 16:15 »

Make snow balls and fedex them really, hard, maybe they'll hit his head. Snow ball fight!

Joseph · « **Reply #229 on:** 06 Jan 2011, 16:21 »

I am useless and my gift is going out tomorrow. Promise! Sorry to my person!

Whoever had me, I'm in Montreal now and I think Jace had my parents address in Vancouver. Jace, can you confirm this? If you've already sent it though, whoever you are, I'm sure my parents can forward it to me.

Liz · « **Reply #230 on:** 07 Jan 2011, 09:29 »

Man, I wonder if you could spring load a snowball in a box. Dude opens it up and BAM right in the face.

so hey about this so i am now back at school so if you shipped my gift to the address i gave, im probably not gonna see it for a couple months. i dont mind though so hey, whatever.

tania · « **Reply #232 on:** 10 Jan 2011, 07:32 »

okay so my secret santa was a person who had a different address for the holidays but the problem is that i already posted my gift so if you haven't received it yet... well to be honest i'm not sure where it is or when it's going to get to you or who (if anyone) is gonna be there to receive it. it's a little worrying cos i put a lot of work into it. i pmed jace like a week ago about it but he never got back to me so i guess i'll wait a few more days and if i don't hear anything by next week i guess that'll be time to finally to ruin the surprise and just contact the person i got to find out what the holiday address situation is cos really, at this point i just kind of want to make sure it hasn't been lost in the mail and if it's on its way is actually going to be received by someone.

Lines · « **Reply #233 on:** 10 Jan 2011, 07:55 »

Person! I am terribly sorry about the lateness. I have it, I just need to wait until I get paid. I am going to try to post it next week and as far as I know, I have the right address. (Sorry about all this, but not working for a month and then going back to school made my budget kind of tight and I need books and food and rent.)

Barmymoo · « **Reply #234 on:** 10 Jan 2011, 13:34 »

Lost-in-the-post gifts are awful, I once sent someone a pot of herpes but it somehow went to the wrong house so I guess some undergrad called Sarah was a bit confused.

Oh hey I talked to them sorry, it is going to their parents house and then it will be reposted over to them.

Guys I think there are some of you that need new addresses for your Santas but I have been really busy lately with work, if you have moved since the holidays (and not got a gift) and I haven't axed you yet, just send me a message with your updated address so I can forward it to your respective santas

tania · « **Reply #238 on:** 10 Jan 2011, 16:37 »

oh thanks jace! sorry i was kind of a dick about it, i was kind of on edge when i wrote that cos having gifts get lost in the mail really stinks and this is one i really don't want to get lost. hopefully it's still intact and has maybe just been delayed in customs or something. sorry person! i swear it's really on it's way!

Jace · « **Reply #239 on:** 10 Jan 2011, 20:12 »

It is def okay tania, I saw you like 3 times in meebo even though I knew about it and yet I still forgot to tell you.

Ugh I completely did not have time to send mine at ALL but I have it, it is just waiting at home.

Home is California though and I am not back until Saturday, I swear I am absolutely the worst person ever with time management and basically everything.

Edith · « **Reply #241 on:** 12 Jan 2011, 11:44 »

I sent mine and maybe the person has gotten it by now, you should have, so tell me if you like it. I hope you like it!

Also, where the hell is my gift!? Somebody better get off their ass and send me something because Jesus Christ people it's already the 12th of January! (13th in Australia probably).

I WANT PRESENTS.

october1983 · « **Reply #242 on:** 12 Jan 2011, 12:36 »

My present arrived yesterday! It was an excellent book that I am already enjoying a lot! Thanks May, I am sorry it couldn't be delivered in person, that would've been an excellent Secret Santa reveal.

My gift is on its way, but it has a long way to go, sorry!

Blue Kitty · « **Reply #243 on:** 12 Jan 2011, 13:39 »

So I don't know who is my santa person (that is kinda the point), and I don't know if you have sent it or not yet. But santa, I just want to tell you, if you haven't sent it: That is totally ok. It is just a gift thing from a forum. Right now it's kinda like a mystery, and I am okay with mysteries. Relax, send it whenever is convenient for you, and I will get an awesome present surprise somewhere down the line. I am in no hurry.

Barmymoo · « **Reply #249 on:** 14 Jan 2011, 12:32 »

SEND MY GODDAMN PRESENT ALREADY!

(You quite possibly already have, I am currently on another land mass several hundred miles away from my home address so it will be a mid-February present anyway!)
