    he lives in Pennsylvania

    he'll get plenty of real snow

    But with fake snow you can play with snow indoors, sitting next to a nice hot fire.

    although, that'd probably be really messy.

    Nope, it's not too messy. It's a tiny bit moist, but once it dries up, it's like light-weight white sand that you can just vacuum right up.

    Since you're not my Satan, can I just like commission you to make me one of these in January or something?

    I've actually been getting questions like that a lot. The answer is "yes, but it won't be cheap." I haven't figured out what I'd charge yet, but if you're still interested I can definitely let you know.

    Time to start saving up those 50% off coupons from Michael's.

    Man they're only good for a week at a time! And only one per visit! I need a closer Joann's.

    So all of my satanee's gifts finally arrived here. Question though!!! If I am doing international shipping should I refrain from wrapping the gifts inside the shipping box? I have heard customs and such will just take them off so???

    What to do?

  • Sweeney TomSweeney Tom Registered User regular
    Oh shit, I guess that also counts as 10 presents, not 9

    Whoops, I lied, you got one more present than I told you you would. Surprise!

    That depends on where you're sending it to, and what they are. For instance, Australian Customs can be real motherfuckers about foodstuffs, including irradiating AND fumigating things (oh hey, now these homemade cookies taste like burnt nylon, thanks!), but they are also wildly inconsistent! Yay! It's probably best to try and contact the customs office you will be dealing with, and asking them directly.

    @Sheri Maaaaaan that blanket is awesome.

    @Ten Youse a dude, dude!

    @Kusuguatti Holy crap a PSP. Also Queen's Greates Hits. Sweet. Time to queen out.

    So last friday I got the first part of my gift, and today I finally got the rest.
    Firstly this box came in. It felt lonely.

    2011Satan1.jpg

    Then today, it was joined by another package, completing the triumvirate! Also there was a cat.

    2011Satan2.jpg

    Notes. I do like RPGs! Although Keenan is my name so I'm not sure why I'm getting the note from myself...but anyway.

    2011Satan3.jpg

    And here are the games. I used to have FFT and Tactics Ogre for the PSX way back...well, I still do have FFT. But I did always want to play the updated versions, so this works out nicely. I never actually played the Parasite Eve games, but since 3rd Birthday doesn't really play like them I guess it doesn't matter. I does look like fun though.

    2011Satan4.jpg

    I forgot to take a picture of the other packing slip with the note, but in it, my Satan Mortal Sky wishes me a happy holiday season. So thanks a lot Mortal Sky! I'm certain I'll enjoy these games when I get around to playing them, because my backlog is getting kind of big again.

    It came with a memory stick? Huh.

    I guess you could try going to Walmart. I'm pretty sure Walmart has ones that will fit inside the PSP, that are at least 32 gigs. Worst case, you get that and the charger at the same time (i.e. not right now) and have to wait a while to play Birth By Sleep. But I thought about that scenario, and that's why I put in Fallout 3: to effectively tide you over.

    Also, looking at your posts thanks to Marg's helpful present tracking, I've given you 18 things in 5 packages so far (forgot about the double feature myself, heh). I'm pretty sure you can now say that no matter what, you've had a happy holidays :]

    Edit that into the original post. I just remembered I put that there myself, and if it weren't for the PSP, that would be the best part of the package, no doubt.

    I'll drop a little spoilers as to open myself up to better advice. It is no food or such things. It is purely books, cds and dvds.

    Don't say that.

    I mean it. Don't say it. I'm not done. I'm currently saving money to buy @Kusuguttai either a Blu-Ray player or small HDTV. Plus there's at least 13 things I still hope to get him. I'm going all out to make my Satanee happy this year. If I don't get to do this next year, I'm making sure to go out in memorable fashion.

    Or alternatively, wrap them all in pillow boxes that are easily opened without being torn up:

    You should be fine wrapping them up, then. Just be sure the DVDs have the correct region encoding! Maybe include a written list of the objects for the customs people, so they know you're not sending XXX-rated stuff to a place where that's not allowed.
