My wife gets it - it just amuses the hell out of her how much fun I have with it. Since she's not a geek, she just doesn't get how cool some of the stuff she's bought me in the past is, and I don't get to get her stuff that I also would like (except for, ahem, certain articles of clothing - as an admirer, not wearer, assholes). She knows this is the one time, all year, where I get to truly enjoy shopping for someone else.
I know nothing about my cousins or you people, but you are all easier to stalk (and have similar interests).
I had some weird friends.
This is why I don't say anything about it to IRL peoples.
Heh - sounds like my freshman year secret Santa. I got body frosting. It was funny tasting - applied or not.
Now I'm just waiting to finish this essay on mathematical principles and music or something so I can put a copy of it in there. Should be a great (read: horrendous) read for whoever my Santee is. But they said they like music, so hey, I'm just giving them a really solid taste of it.
My friends think its weird, and the look on my husband's face when he saw how much the shipping costs were - worse, he asked if I'd have paid it if he hadn't been there - my reply? long pause... maybe. Ha, ha, ha, they know I'm a bit strange, anyway!

After seeing where you live from your website, it could very well be me, or it could not be me...gotta wait.
*edit* After asking my wife how far away I live from where your website says you do...most likely not.
The more entertaining part is sending the gift out, I kind of forget I get one in return so it's an awesome surprise when it turns up
Also it's fun to ship stuff overseas that folks wouldn't normally be able to get, even daft stuff like local chocolate etc.
There's one item I wanted to get though that I just couldn't, and I've delayed too long waiting to see if it'll become available so I'm going to have to leave it out.

I had to do the same thing with some delicious candy. I wanted to get something and it's near impossible to find in stores these days. Except my mother knew someone at work who said she'd buy it. So I waited and waited and waited while she kept forgetting to buy it and then leaving it at home. In the meantime snow/rain had covered everything and it was now difficult to get to the post office. Finally she had left a message on her own home phone to remember to bring it in, but when she got home she found out the dog ate it.
That's right Santee, the dog ate your present.
So rather than wait any longer I just sent off the gift with a different, less awesome, candy in it.

I provided that address as well, so everything should be good.

Also, Santee, be on the lookout, your present was mailed Wednesday, you should be getting it any time now
<3. The tracking number said it was delivered early last week, and I've been gently panicking since. Glad to hear that everything got there

I cannot reveal this information at this time, as the essay is not nearly done, but it needs to be by tonight.
No reason. It's only... I just happened to look behind us and something is there.
Probably just a local fisherman out for a pleasure cruise at night through... Eel-infested waters...

He's right on top of us. I wonder if he is using the same wind we are using.

Granted, it is moving along, but still in production. I hope my santee appreciates that the model has undergone several revisions and that the final model is only somewhat ugly.
The dub was pretty good, yah.
Speaking of significant others, my Santa asked via proxy what kind of video game tastes my fiancee has. Now THAT is classy and awesome. Though the fiancee is now terrified, because the main association she makes with the site/forums is the fruit fucker.

You better post pictures of it when you actually receive it in a couple of days.
Rondo of Swords for my DS
Serenity for my movie rack and
The Alphabet of Manliness for my book case.
Thank you very much for the bitching gifts, and hopefully I can get my gift out soon.

Don't know if you can combine checkout codes. I'm guessing not, in which case they usually have a $10 coupon code floating around on google and shipping is usually less than $10.
First off, this what I was greeted to when I stumbled out of bed last week.
I proceed to open the box and what am I greeted to?
Penis jokes!
A nice greeting card was right on top these pictures.
More gifts? Are you insane? Probably but I like the cut of your jib!
Now, we finally get to the first present.
Hooray for no unions!
I know what I'm spending those points on.
We dig deeper into the package. As you can see, there is a lot in this box.
I don't know about you, but that gift with Mega Man on it caught my eye immediately.
Looks like my Santa has been digging around.
The gift wrapping is pretty sweet.
But what's inside?
Holy snap, crackle, and pop! 10 inches of Mega awesomeness. :winky:
He'll defend my house from pesky kids who keep touching my stuff.
Now we move on to this nice box.
While I thought it would make a great shoe box, I was surprise to find out it actually had stuff inside!
Wait, what does that say?
While I like fish tacos, I wouldn't want to be stabbed with one. Point taken.
So, how shall I feast on my wings?
I have to admit, I haven't used blue cheese on wings before. You'd think I'd have done it by now since I do like it better than ranch.
Oh yeah, did someone say candy?
That sponge candy was awesome. Not sure if I can pick that up anywhere around here. For shame. D:
Since I'm more of a chocolate lover, the lollipops went to my sisters. Thank goodness too since one of them wouldn't stop singing that damn candy song.
Time to move on to the next gift.
I can't tell what this is. I need some kind of clue.
Key criteria? What the hell are you jabbering about? Let's open this bad boy up.
OMGWTFBBQ MY CAPS LOCK BROKE!
What the? Something's not right here.
That's better. This gift totally caught me off guard. I wanted to buy one of these but missed my chance. Luckily, my Santa's got my back.
Moving right along, the next gift is a bit haunting.
My chances don't look good? What do I do?
My Santa has my back. I'm sure to survive the zombie apocalypse now.
Time to take a break and see what the papers from other states have to offer.
There's a celebration alright. In my pants! I think she's happy about it. :winky:
Anyway, time to move onto the last gift.
Sweet card but what does it say?
I can't give you a ride in a F1 car, silly.
I sure as hell can in a Zonda. Nice paint job to boot.
That's the end of my loot-a-thon. I can't believe my Santa got me all this stuff. This is definitely above and beyond the call of duty. I must say I let my guard down in terms of how far my Santa would stalk me. I can safely say my Santa stalk me pretty much everywhere I went.
I can't thank you enough, Santa. I'm not sure if you want to reveal yourself, but I can understand why you wouldn't want to. At least know you'll always have a special place in my heart as my first. <3

I have no idea what any of those notes said.
Also, Santee, you should be informed that you will be recieving part one of a two part series in the mail SOON, as I ordered it today.
