I'm so excited to find out what you all sent me!

You won't be getting anything from me. I couldn't find enough fertilizer.

I went shopping for my persons presents today. I failed - I couldn't find anything awesome enough. Attempt to will involve online shopping I think, much less stressful then having to deal with people in stores.

Dear clockworkjames,

I had a look at your posts but all I can figure out is you like games I've never heard of and never played before. Could you come up with a few more hints?

Love,
Your Secret Santa

Well, I've lined up my gift already. I get paid on Saturday, and I'll be buying it on Tuesday, if the store carries them.

If not, I'll just have to order online. Yays!

LPRKN wants his Secret Santa to know that he wears a Medium or Large T-shirt.

I found the most awesome shop ever yesterday, and next Friday I will be going back with moneys to purchase lots and lots of awesome things. I'll be cutting it a tiny bit fine with posting deadlines but I'm every kind of broke now, since I spent last month's wages on flights I couldn't afford. Ah well.

Dear Secret Santa

Even though I dislike Twilight, that doesn't mean I hate the world.  I like almost all colors, soft fuzzy things, videogames, cacti, octopuses, science, animals (but not too much).  That doesn't mean anything about your presents, however.  You could get me pretty much anything and it would trump what I got last year, in the 'People from the Internet' quota.  Seriously, anything in a nice package would be beyond awesome.  I would even like Twilight, because it precludes some thought into my sense of humor and the fact that I'm a teenage girl (its presupposed demographic), and of course, there's always regifting.

Thanks so much, and I hope that clears stuff up.

Maybe I'll just head to the store down the street and get those M&Ms that come in a package that has like 3 different languages that my person will probably never see again.

I have passed phase 1. Gift was bought.
Phase 2 cannot continue until the gift arrives though, which I hope is soon.
And then there's Phase 3, which is sort of like the old game Pitfall, except with packages and stuff.

I think I got some crap, for phase 1: gift. Phase 2: chocolate has been abandoned, since, well, there is no such thing as good chocolate here unless you buy imported stuff which you can get anywhere.

I like my gift ideas to be unique which really fucks me over sometimes.

WHAT DID YOU GET ME SHANE

I blessed your state with my presence, isn't that enough?

Step one: Gift purchased and shipped
Step two: I baked cookies, but I either used too much or not enough of something and they came out horrid. Sorry, gift recipient. You are not getting any cookies from me.
Step three: Learn to read a fucking recipe. Do not make same mistake next year.

BY THE WAY. To save money (I am really stretching right now), I had the gift shipped from the website to said recipient's address. So if you get something from somewhere you did not order from, that's me.
