Funny, I didn't sign up this year.

Gifts went out to my Secret Santee today. Supposed to arrive by the 22nd. Fingers are crossed that all arrives safely and brings some Xmas cheer.

I sent mine out early last week. It probably should've arrived around Thursday but I haven't heard anything yet. I hope it gets there OK.

Still no idea who sent me that whopping box of treasure. Whoever you are, thank you again.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

What happens if it doesn't?  Do you get drummed out of the FOT?

Hope my Secret Santee understands Christmas is more about giving than receiving. For him, I mean.

Pierre, I just logged on to thank you.  I love it.  I think it's going in my office.  As soon as I figure out how to post a picture of it, I will.  It is one of the best things ever.  Thank you!

I'm getting worried about the status of mine...I sent it xpresspost but after doing that I remembered that the last time I sent something that way the package got there a week and a half late. If you're still waiting on your gift there's a possibility that you're my secret santee, in which case you should take comfort in the knowledge that if it doesn't get to you on time I am going to punch a Canada Post employee in the face.

I got mine in the mail yesterday, and if it weren't this time of year I think it'd make it by Sat. I don't know if it will however.

When I was in line, which was long but there were many post office workers steadily working, some guy came in and started stomping around muttering under his breath 'this is bullshit'. Was it May 3rd or something in his head? Good grief, this is a post office in midtown M'han on Dec 21st for crying out loud. Those guys kept the line moving pretty well. I waited maybe 15 min. Not bad, I thought.

I just want to take a minute to thank everybody who signed up for participating.

Reminder: if you haven't had a chance to send out your materials, or if you are experiencing an unfortunate delay, please drop a line. Either me or one of my elves (also me) will connect with your Santee and let them know there's a delay.

Please also note that if for some reason you signed up and now you can not or will not be able to participate, let me know so we can come up with a solution.

Just picked up a final item I wasn't able to get earlier in the week. Should ship tomorrow and hopefully be in my Santee's loving arms by Friday.

Merry Christmas!

Been crazy super dumb-dumb busy lately, but I wanted to thank my secret sonta for my awesome haul. Pat from Lansing sent me The Billy Letters, a Spartans shirt (natch) and some delicious popped-corn. Thanks!

I haven't had a chance to send out my materials. Hopefully tomorrow, if the fever subsides.

Wow. I feel better reading that others were just able to mail their parcels. My Santee should get theirs early next week. Sucks, though, as there's a sort of Christmas portion of one of the gifts ... Ah well ... Beyond my control this time ... Sort of ... [(fake) tears up] I just wanted ever-thang to be special ...

[sigh] Every year I try to be early & every year I get more behind ...
