I received mine yesterday but I don't know who it's from. All I have is a real name! Thanks for the cookies and book to help me beat DFK in the NBA thread.

I still haven't heard anything from my Santa either. I can't remember exactly when I sent the package, but I think it was almost 3 weeks ago. I hope it isn't lost.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

I haven't heard anything from my Santee either, but I'm sure a lot of the folks in Secret Santa FOT 2010 may not regularly check this forum, much less post or maybe WANT to post, so I wouldn't worry about it if you sent your gift.

Anything I get whenever I get it is a bonus on top of that.

Big thanks to my Seattle Secret Santa for the Peep Show DVD! I've only seen a handful of episodes on BBC America, but loved them. Believe I'll watch it now...

Got it today badgrammar! 

Having a lot of fun going through it all.  Super cool.  The handwritten card was amazing on its own!

An interesting and welcome development. My Secret Santa got another FOT to write me a FB message saying not to worry and that my present was on its way. I'm super happy to hear that but the courier would not divulge any other information and now I'm just happy my Secret Santa takes pride in a job well done. I commend you.

Fig. 1: An excited FOT.

Fig. 2: Ticket Stub Journal. Finally, an excuse to leave my home.

Fig. 3: FUDGE. Quickly devoured by myself and my family after this picture, so all we have photographic evidence of is the box.

Fig. 4: St. Homobonus statue. Patron of businessmen. May his prayers ward off weirdness from bankers and other unpleasantness.

Also included a nice note from gyaneshwar. Thanks for the holiday cheer!

The pleasure is all mine! This has truly been a fun experience participating in the FOT exchange this year. I'm super happy you enjoyed everything, especially the fudge.

FOTs are THE BEST OF THE BEST.

A big thank you to JustNicole for the sweet presents that arrived on my doorstep Dec 23. Lots of SD Padres gear, including an Xmas ornament, notebook, tote bag and baby bottle. Nicole did her research of my twitter feed, I believe, and did it well.

Thanks again for affirming my belief that FOTs are the nicest, bestest people around.

If my Santa is wondering, I haven't seen mail in the past two days due to this storm - any of us East Coasters are probably going to have a big delay in getting packages. I will definitely shout it from the rooftops when it gets here, believe you me.

Nah - not to be a flaming asshole or nothin' but when your present gets to you, you should definitely get in touch with your giver either here, thru DM or ask JustSheaNo for their email address.

Not only is shipping crazy this time of year, but this blizzard has thrown things off track for days now and will continue to do so. Don't leave your Santa wondering if their present to you got plucked off your doorstep or buried in snow.

I'm so, so glad you liked it! I definitely scoped the twitter feed, fo sho. And you mentioned your little one either over there or on the board here so, I had to pass on the Padres love.

Thank YOU for the sweet words and also for being really funny. Gyaneshwar wrote in his special instructions that if Djurnon was his Secret Santa, no homemade mayonnaise was to be sent.
