Oh, there is box from Amazon here! But I didn't order anything from Amazon recently! Or did I?
No I did not!
Boxlike! Unfortunately no cats were around at the time of unboxening.
It is a gift! There's nothing on the note though...
Ahah! Nier! That is a game that I want to play!
There was no indication of which PA member this was from, but using the magic of triangles I certainly have a guess...so thanks to that person whoever they turn out to be!
EDIT: Whoa hey, wait a minute, I just got another box from Amazon which contained another gift! Pics in a couple minutes!
Another box from Amazon! This one came by Fed-Ex, the other from UPS, hence why I didn't get them at the same time. Also, the packing slip in the second box says that's only the first part, while the first one said it completed the order, which is why I didn't know there was going to be a second part at first.
Another blue gift! So much blue...still no note.
It is the Fallen! He is also blue. Optimus wants his face.
I hope you enjoy your things. I actually wanted to get you, in addition to a few other things, a slew of marvel and transformers papercraft sheets on cardstock, along with a board on which to cut them out, a utility knife, and a gluestick, but my printer, which has previously been awesome, printing great actual-photos, on photo paper and everything, has started printing really unreliably. I tried aligning the nozzles, cleaning the printhead, even pulled the head out and rubbing-alcohol-ed it, tried new ink cartriges, to no avail. So after fighting and fighting and fighting, I finally gave up and got you those.

So again, I hope you like it
There was indeed another box. Thanks!
Oh man, those papercraft things sound so awesome! That would have been a hell of a lot of fun. But these were pretty sweet too, I mean, they were in my wish list after all, heh.
Thank you for a great Christmas/day before my birthday present!

Well I shall be departing the house for a faraway new years party.
Santa, I have not receive a gift yet, and have not heard anything from you. I'll still have internet where I'm going (though, sporadically) if you need to contact me.
Sorry santa! My christmas was super-hectic, and I just now got to photographing my gifts.
Sorry I lack rad unboxing pics - I didn't have my camera when I opened them
1up get!
I needed an extra life after finals week. This thing is seriously nifty and large.
Aaaaaannnnnddd....
The soundtrack to Skies of Arcadia! It's Japan-only! I'm not normally a huge JRPG guy, but I absolutely adore everything about Skies of Arcadia, and it is quite possibly my absotively most favoritest soundtrack ever. You have good taste, Santa!
for my wii:
SMB: All Stars anniversary edition! As soon as I heard this was going to be released, I got so excited - I always wanted All-Stars for the SNES, but never had the cash as a ten-year old. I always ended up renting it and wondering what came later in SMB 3, because I had to return it. I'm so excited to play through all the games on here (and Super Mario World on the VC) in a marathon.
Thanks, Santa! I couldn't find a username on the packages (apologies if I missed a letter somehow, I looked pretty thoroughly.), but you are awesome!
Edit:
Skreee!

ArcSyn, I was having a terrible week with a loved one falling ill. That just brightened up my week AND new year! It's 2011 here, so happy new year all! And congrats on the child, it's so great to here that!
So despite my town being covered in a few feet of snow, UPS still managed to deliver holiday cheer to me!
Two packages were received, one over the weekend, and one just now! In lieu of pets or babbies, Package Inspector Yeast takes the case!
(I actually opened the boxes beforehand, as I was expecting some other stuff from Amazon. Whoops!)
Mr. Yeast investigates the first package!
It's a book! A Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin! I haven't read this (I actually don't read much fiction) but I've heard nothing but good things. I can't wait to read it!
Mr. Yeast takes on package 2 with gusto!
Aaaaaaaahhhhh! A pretty man, and he's given us Herpes! Why does this keep happening???
I did play Uncharted very briefly, but never got past the first section due to stupid silly geese stealing the game from me. I am determined to finish it this time!
The complete haul!
Mr. Yeast introduces Herpes to the rest of the gang!
Thank you so much, Grove!
Awesome, glad the avalanche on your street finally cleared!
I love Game of Thrones, in fact I've become addicted. I hope you enjoy.
Looks like I got lucky with herpes huh? You have all the other diseases!
The gift that keeps on giving. And if he was born before the first you get to claim him on your taxes! If you're in the US... making a lot of assumptions here aren't I...
I have four munchkins and every one of them is a joy, I hope the same for you! (the joy part, not necessarily the four part)

You are correct on all parts! Born on the 31st, and I do get to claim him on my taxes! :P Though I heard the hospital and County I live in put together quite the gift basket for the first child born in the new year.
While I do not have four, I do now have three. They are wonderful and such a blessing!
Big Isy, sorry to hear about the illness, will kepp you guys in prayer. Glad I could brighten up the week though!
Turns out that its hard to find people online to Proxy at 2am EST on a Sunday . Although it appears that this year's SS had a theme of triangles, so it probably wouldn't have been that hard to figure out. You had cj, cj had me, I have you. Yes, I am indeed your Secret Santa
Now then! On to the good stuff!
I wanted to ship you a bunch of books and graphic novels since you have mentioned that you like to read but that was going to cost $texas. So I bring unto you, the gift of gaming:
The Witcher is based off of a Russian fantasy novel, filled with elvish racism and lusty barmaids.
The Witcher: Enhanced Edition http://store.steampowered.com/app/20900/
The Overlord games were written by Rhianna Pratchett, daughter of Discworld author Terry Pratchett! If you aren't familiar with the Discworld series then I just gave you homework.
Overlord Complete Pack http://store.steampowered.com/sub/2464/
I heard you like shooting mans! BC2 is probably the best multiplayer shooter on the PC to be released in the past few years.
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 http://store.steampowered.com/app/24960/
Your apparent love of shooters (and you purchase of the ID Super Pack) also led me to believe that you'd enjoy the FEAR games!
FEAR Complete Pack http://store.steampowered.com/sub/6946/
So there we go. Some purchases inspired by your love of literature, others by your interest in the great American past time of blowing shit up. All of these links are unspecific to your Steam account, so if you should choose to re-gift any of these based on previous ownership or anything like that you should be able to send the links just as I have.
Merry Christmas again Hearthjaw! May you enjoy many hours of gaming in your future!
Thank you very much Fig-D these are all games that I've um'd and ah'd about in the passed, already got the witcher and battlefield installing, with the rest soon to follow. I hope you had a Happy Chirstmas and an Awesome new year
I'll edit some pics in when my phone is being a little less retarded
Since it's the 1st, I'm just popping in to say that I have not received a gift yet, from either G&T or SE++, though with the latter we have more time, I'm pretty sure the G&T deadline was yesterday.
Proxy has been proud to serve the Santa Army this year and appears to have run out of assignments to deliver.
If you're past due and need to comfort your santee, please do leave me a note.
If nobody really needs anything, then I guess Proxy shall once again re-enter his cheer-powered hybernation chamber and re-emerge once again when the secret santas rise again next year!
UNTIL THEN!

HAPPY CHRISTMAS!!

Proxy's been very helpful this year with both my Santas. He's my other favorite Elf wearing a green tunic and hat.
I received an email this morning letting me know that I was gifted 2 Kindle ebooks, but I do not own a Kindle. They were under the impression I did but they are mistaken. Sorry Santa/Satan! I actually own a Sony Pocket Reader, I think there are posts around where I mentioned this but it looks like I just said I had a nondescript "ereader" in my informational SS post.
I'm not sure which Santa it's from though (SE++ or G&T) so I'm cross-posting this, is there a way these can be returned? As far as I know there is no way I can use these with my Sony Reader.
Howdy everyone, I'm baaaaaaack and here to take care of bid'ness. It'll take a day or two to sort through everything, but it'll all be sorted as soon as possible.
I hope everyone had an awesome Christmas and a great new year!

How much poo do you think you've killed so far?
Not enough. I must beat the king of poo.
I never actually beat the secret bosses.
I mean, I liked the game, but not quite that much.
This post is a few days late. I logged into PA the other day to find a private message waiting for me from Fig-D!
Thank you very much Fig-D these are all games that I've um'd and ah'd about in the passed, already got the witcher and battlefield installing, with the rest soon to follow. I hope you had a Happy Chirstmas and an Awesome new year
