We work together, he thought it was a joke gift from one of our vendors, especially since he's the "old man" around here.. (even though my dad is 74, and runs circles around us young'uns) I'm glad I intercepted it, or it may have gone in the company gift exchange... That could have been interesting!!

That's excellent, strangeday! Nice work, Kath!
This is getting fun (even BEFORE Tami's imitation [or is that intimation?] of Bill the Cat :)).

Yes!! A book for the looooong plane ride to see my kids, Deep Play by Paul Pritchard, a Boardman-Tasker award winner. An interesting looking DVD, too, The Lost People of Mountain Village. Thanks, John!

Mailman hasn't come today. I feel like a little girl anxiously waiting for my package to arrive. :)

Everyone seemed to be opening theirs so I thought "why wait".
I'm glad I didn't because it needs to go straight to the freezer! Thanks, SS!

Package is being loaded in Santa's sleigh as we speak. Told him it's high priority.
I'll be posting a pic of my package soon. As my girls we're hasty in opening it before I even got home from work.

I accidentally opened mine this afternoon! I thought it was a delivery of texts books or a post-hospital get well gift. Or something. It didn't occur to me to actually look at the label and then I would've known it was my Secret Santa gift. BN is going to be miffed I didn't wait for him.
I am heading out the door shortly for an emergency margarita with Ms Tarbuster and Ms Prod but will post up photos later.
Thanks Secret Santa! It's a very cool, and useful gift. :)

OPEN OPEN OPEN OPEN!!!!
So, back from emergency margarita night (though not a single margarita was had) and took a photo of my excellent secret santa gift. Unlike the rest of you, I have no discipline and it is a source of pride. :)
A big thanks to Kristin Moore of CA who is my secret santa. Embarrassed to say I don't know her taco name. :/ When our paths cross, we'll share some wine in the glasses. :)
edit: wow, scary arse photo. My eyes are still blown out from the exciting hospital procedure earlier this week. It was rough!
