My mother in law found this on the doorstep waiting for me when I got back from my yearly mini-vacation to New York:

Awesome stuff for me! Including:


and

but the best part was when I took out the elmo stuffed animal and silverware.. my daughter (who was watching) audibly gasped, and said "WOOOOOOWWW! ELMO!"

and then reached out to grab him and give him hugs:

Thank you BlueAg2003!

Nothing new today?

I finally shipped mine out after it sat around for a week or so, I hope everything lives to see their way to a new owner.
What did you buy??
Just joking about the living things part.

I did however wrap eight items individually with instructions to open them in a certain order, you know, to prolong the frivolity. It should be a reasonable mix of humorous and useful items. I can't wait to see the reaction here.

I'm not sure what number the wine bottle was, but it definitely decided to open itself...

Nooooo! It was 1a or 1b. I guess I should have padded it better. Did it damage anything else?

Was it shipped by air?

A non-pressurized plane (like for cargo) could have easily popped a cork if it wasn't screwcap.

It only had to go from Fort Worth to Dallas, so I highly doubt air was involved. I guess it got dropped at some point.

But the burning question is, has she opened everything yet?

My box goes out today. Apologies to my victim. Life keeps getting in the way.

I'll ship it 2-day, though, so it gets there in quickly.

ETA should arrive sometime before midnight on Friday.

It was in a plastic bag on my doorstep bc the box was too wet to contain everything. I started to pull everything out and it's covered in wine, so I laid it out on the stove with the hope that it will be dry when I get home. Everything is still wrapped, lulz. So will see...?

You're not out of line - the deadline isn't until the 20th.


On a related note, for my gifter - if you think the package might arrive after the 21st, please let me know. Won't be a big deal, but I'd need to make arrangements.

Take pictures. If need be I can file an insurance claim and replace some of the more useful items..

Good news / bad news.

Bad news: Of the 9 gifts received, 2 survived.
Bad news2: One of those two surviving items was a turkey baster.

Good news: Most of the items were weird as sh/t anyway.

The turkey baster was actually from me. Did the contents survive?

I had the kid's band concert last night and didn't have time to upload pics before the show and I got home after my old man bedtime..

That being said, I had a box with quite the bounty waiting when I got home:



We have a fan/light combo for tent camping, a three-man slingshot, Monty Python's "The Meaning of Life" on blu-ray, a Jason Boland live album, Star Wars socks.....


...and a creepy mask that scared the Bony Dog




Great job WWW!!! Thanks!!!
