Secret Santa?

[Matz]

probably, but I didn't say that I now like them, I'd still rather learn to draw than work with these types of books. What I agree with Artemis about is that it's a good tool for mindfulness and so is learning to draw like I'm attempting to do

[perkana]

I think you have to participate in next year's SS Matz so we are not offended...
Awesome presents btw!

You sound so full of shit pretending you like the coloring book now. I doubt Warped even cares.

I think she does care. She spent time looking for those gifts. The Flip flops are some sort of mouth in cheeck and thought of for instance

[Hokahey]

Someone should be expecting a package this Wednesday :)

Picking out thoughtful gifts has never been my strong suit, but I did my best!

clickie will let you know how your gifts are

[Hokahey]

clickie will let you know how your gifts are

And whether my recipients enthusiasm is permitted.

And more scintillating commentary no doubt....

I just checked the Canada Post tracker and see that my package was delivered to its destination.

My package went yesterday. Was waiting and waiting for one more thing to arrive but it hasn't come yet, so my recepient will be getting two packages!

[wally]

finally finished shopping, wrapping and shipping this evening.

[Hokahey]

I finally had the chance to open my package from my secret santa, who turned out to be Artemis. I don't have time to say much or post photos yet, but it was remarkable. I was honesty stunned at how much she put in to it, how carefully wrapped everything was, and getting such a wonderful flavor of Canada. I suspect she will win the best santa award this year.

So thanks a million. It was a wonderful treat and I was thrilled to open each gift.

I felt deep shame at my lackluster offering after seeing what you sent.

Funny, and sweet....lot's of people exceed the minimum and put such nice thought into this. I think it's kind of a nice/special touch on this board.

Glad you got it! I was a little worried because on the postal tracker it showed that the package was delivered on December 10th, but you didn't mention anything about receiving it, so I thought maybe it got delivered to the wrong house.

Yeah, you hit the jackpot this year. I don't normally send that much, but I had some trouble deciding what to get.Also, I threw in a couple of things that I didn't send from past Secret Santas. A post from a few pages back:

Parcel is packed and ready to post tomorrow morning.

I have to say my person is going to get a good haul of stuff. I had trouble deciding what to get. I bought something, changed my mind, bought something else, changed my mind again. At this point, I said to myself, "Enough! No more buying, no more changing my mind!" In the end, I just put everything in a box and taped the box closed. My person can consider this the special Secret Santa, 5 year anniversary bonus package.

Sorry for all the packing tape..

Please, do not feel shame about your gift!

I love the ANR Secret Santa! Props to Larry B for starting it 5 years ago. I hope we can keep it going as long as this board carries on or people are interested.

Ha! I forgot about that post. Well thank you very much for the wonderful gifts and packaging. I felt like a kid at Christmas.

It really is so cool. I'm just glad that people played along! Truth be told, I spent more time and effort getting things for my secret santa than I did for a few members of my family... not sure if I should feel bad or not.

[Larry B.]

my box of goodies arrived yesterday......... :-)

We want pictures! Same goes for Hoka... come on!

[wally]

International shipping, holy hell!!
Merry Christmas to you too FedEx

Yes, don't forget to post your pictures! It doesn't take much time to do that, maybe 10-15 minutes tops!

[nausearockpig]

Here you go.



I ain't opening nuffink til Festivus Day.

Truth be told, I did open the box and inside it were two wrapped packages and one pre-bagged gift......

[Larry B.]

Like the Romans did during their occupation of Jerusalem, I think people who don't post pictures of their Jane's Addiction Secret Santa ought to be crucified.

[nausearockpig]

I agree. Anyone who holds out on their ANR bros & sistas should at least be publicly denounced from the human race, and cast into the Pit of Carkoon.

Just think how excited you'll all be on Festivus Day when I post the pics of my presents!!

[nausearockpig]

POSTED!!
