I just checked the tracking and the box I mailed 2 days ago to my Secret Santa apparently got to Tokyo and was rejected by the shipping company even though nothing violated any of the restrictions they listed. If I am able to somehow get it back from them before we leave for the airport tomorrow I'll bring it with me. Otherwise I won't be back to send it again until February.

Thank you Claude!
A FairbairnSykes fighting knife, many stickers about the best book series ever created (and maybe a wink and nod too), and a book based on one of my favorite series! You nailed it bud! I'm going to be the coolest kid in my special needs class when break is over!

Glad you liked it, dude, and apologies for the delay - it took Redbubble two weeks to send those stickers. And while that knife is no Dyrnwyn, please remember to use it to rule with justice and to strike down evil. No terrorizing the other kids in class, unless one of them is named Arawn.
Omg nerds lol
So besides whoever BiB has (extenuating circumstances), who is still waiting on their gift?

FYI, I've DMed them to let them know that it won't make it to them till February. Tried to see if we could get it on the way to the airport today, but it was already in transit and they couldn't stop it anywhere.
Edit: A Christmas miracle just happened!! The local center called us like 10 minutes after we called the help line and said the package was returned to them and available for pickup even though the help line estimated it wouldn't be there till tomorrow. Gonna be able to put them in our luggage now!

Even though she posted anonymously, I knew who it was based the context clues. It is all good. Logistics are the suck during the holidays especially internationally.

I received two boxes from Amazon but I don't know who they are from, I'll get some pics up later today.
Arrived at my parents house to find a gift waiting for me.
Thanks EFE! I can't wait to be able to make homemade tortillas! Usually I buy a ton while I'm in Texas and then vacuum seal and freeze them, but this will be so much better.

There's another volley of goods that should be there Tuesday

I can't wait!
I still don't know who sent these, but thanks for the warm sweat pants and the collapsable fishing net!
I'm about to lose control and I think I like it.
Thank you, Talon! The mug - Henry Cavill wearing a cat shirt - is perfect.
Love ya
Thanks again, EFE. My husband is very confused by the peanuts.
Mexican candy companies labeling their weirdest creations as Chinese/Japanese is one of my favorite things
IDK if I've mentioned it before, but his sister actually lives in Mexico and met her husband there. When they come to Japan to visit it's an interesting mix of languages.

I drew you this year. I moved the last weekend in November so I didn't get a chance to personalize much. Just went off your list.
