Teh Cult Secret Santa 2012: The Aftermath.
Hahahaha! I love drunk Tuffy.
I'm hoping to send mine out on wed.
Wait are we already sending packages out? Yeah, I'm probably over budget myself but it's only once a year what can ya do? Right now I had to cancel three different orders I was going to place on Amazon. 100 dollars for kid's books for my cousins? Sheesh!
Well my deadline is the 1st, but I have wed off, so it's the best day for me to get to the postshop.
Oh well I hope I get one of the gifts soon so I can send mine out by the end of the week.
SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!
This is why we can't have nice things.
I realized this morning that I'm done. Except for treats. Of which there will be.
This is why we can't have nice things.
I'm pretty sure I'm done too, but there is wrapping to be done!

I'm done with most of the wrapping and I need to add candy!!
Wrapping-schmapping.
This is why we can't have nice things.
I suck at wrapping.
How's your swaddling?!
This is why we can't have nice things.
My swaddling rocks. How is it I can swaddle a wriggly baby, but I can't wrap a bloody box?
Mystery Of Life, hon.

I found the book I wanted to buy, woohoo!
Worked on my package quite a while on Saturday, and it made me so happy! I got all excited, haha. I thought I was awesome at wrapping gifts by the way, but I found out it wasn't as easy as I remembered it to be.
I still have some last minute shopping to do on Friday (and maybe Saturday...) before I send out my package.
Yeah i'm buying a couple things this weekend but other than that, mine's pretty much ready.
hey guys, I just wanted to let y'all know that I'm going to have to back out of secret santa this year. it's really not something I want to do because I love doing this with the cult, but I'm going through some major financial woes right now. I was having car problems and other stuff and had to pay a bunch of money I didn't have. I currently don't have enough money for rent which is due in 10 days so I'm trying to figure that out.
sorry, I hate to flake on this and bring this thread down but I have zero money for anything right now. I hope nobody is too disappointed with me.
“if you want to be a bird,” you said once, “with colorful plumage and buoyant trills, you must also be ready for hollow bones."
Don't think about us, sounds like you have enough to worry about already. I hope you figure things out with the rent, hmpf.
Is there someone now that won't get a package though?
I think they'll assign my sender my recipient.
“if you want to be a bird,” you said once, “with colorful plumage and buoyant trills, you must also be ready for hollow bones."
Fano needs to contact your sender then and tell them who their new recipient is.
Posthaste!
Good luck, Fudgiecam!
This is why we can't have nice things.
It's already did.
Boo! I hope everything gets taken care of Cammie. Financial troubles suck especially when that involves car repairs. Be sure to pm me an address so I can send you a postcard for christmas.
Good luck Cammie.
thanks guys

going to Powell's today to see what they have that my secret giftee may like.
Shit shit shit. I have to shop this weekend. I still am not sure what to get my person. I maen I have an idea but still.
As your attorney, my advise to you is to start drinking heavily(er).-Tuffy
International Senders should think about mailing soon....
Word to the wise.
This is why we can't have nice things.
I'm done and sent. 
Sarah draws first blood!
This is why we can't have nice things.
Mine is ready to get sent out. I want to post pictures! but even the wrapping might give it away so I won't.
I might be done.
Definitely not done. I will do my best to send the package tomorrow!
I think I'm done.
I'm done shopping unless Something Cool jumps out at me.
This is why we can't have nice things.
I have to correct us all, including myself... "Finished" not "Done".
Which I am not sure is actually the better grammar or not, but I was nagged so many times by my grandparents growing up about that one that I annoy myself every time I use the word "done" to describe something involving human activity... the chicken is done cooking, the person is finished with their task.
My grandparents were likely just messing with my head.
Bingo.
This is why we can't have nice things.
I'm pretty sure I'm done buying for both of my secret santas. I bought the last few items this morning. I also started wrapping this morning! I still have a good bit to wrap and garnish and I have to get boxes and pack and ship. I'm working all weekend, but hopefully I will have everything ready to go by Monday.
Part of me wants to hold onto them for a while so they don't get there so long before Christmas, but part of me wants to just get it done!

You mean, "Part of me wants to get it finished."

I just bought a bunch more goodies.
I hope I stop soon.

Nope, I mean done! Pepper's grandparents were liars.

Kindly choose a better way to make fun of the silliness I was raised with than calling my grandparents liars in the future, please.
Package is sent! I hope it gets to my cultie in time.
I bought still more stuff for my giftee today.
Grrrr.
This is why we can't have nice things.
Really? Chill out, it was a joke.

I took a picture of all the gifts for my Reddit secret santa all wrapped up and I want to share it, but it includes a few of the same things as my cult secret santa's package and I don't want to spoil anything.
Anyway, both of my gifts are all packed up and ready to go! And they weigh a ton.

I replied to you in PA.
This is the Happy Place thread, I am not going to muck it up.
Hey Noah do you think you can send me an updated address so I can send you a postcard?
I'm about to head to the post office with my gift! It was ready to go last week, I just didn't have a chance to get it shipped.
And I'm not entirely sure about this, but I think today is the shipping deadline, so y'all better get to shippin'!
