Secret Santa: Santa's on his way!

[punkoffgirl]

Weeeeee! The excitement is building as gifts are starting to arrive! Let's see who can resist temptation until Christmas day to open them, eh? :) Please remember to keep what you got/who you got a secret until then!

I've already heard from many of you that you've received your gifts! I'm going to post a list here of names I don't have checked off.. Drop me a line and let me know when the postman Santa drops yours off!

If you've already told me you got yours, but I didn't check it off, reply to this post as well and I'll remedy that. It's also finals week for me, so I might have read it and then promptly forgot it :)

And here's the list of impending arrivals:

I sent you an email on Dec. 7th saying I received my package!

[Chickenpuppet]

So, if we are going out of town for the holidays (dec 22nd- jan 1st), should i wait to open until after i get back or do it before i leave? please say 'before'...

[Rogmeister]

I'm on the list of "impending arrivals" but I actually received my package over a week ago. I had e-mailed you so this is apparently just a minor error... :)

[JustRob]

Got mine today, actually. I wasn't sure if it would be wrapped inside or not, so I had my girlfriend's mom open it while I had my back turned. It wasn't wrapped so I had her close and tape up the box again with my back still turned. She put a bow on it and stuck it under the tree. Heh, can't wait till the 25th!

[punkoffgirl]

Thanks, I updated you Rog and Vector!

@Chickenpuppet: If you really wanna open them, Santa can't see! :) Although I wouldn't rule out bringing your package with you! Just make sure you don't post about them until Christmas.

Got mine yesterday!

I'm pumped to open mine since it is my only real gift this year since most of my family is just sending cash or gift cards since I moved and they don't want to ship stuff and my wife and I basically picked out stuff we wanted and got it for each other so no surprise there. So with all that said only a little over a week left and I can open it.

Yeah got mine a fair while back (and posted here), so cross me off Miss Jaime ;)

I'm surprised by how hard I'm finding it to wait. The package looks so cool under the tree I can't wait!!!

but I'm going to..... probably

[Emuaust]

My parcel came today

[s1lence]

I got my package yesterday. I opened it too but I'll wait to say what I got.

I dunno who my SS is though, they didn't put their screen name on the package.

[kainemaxwell]

Received mine awhile agoz.

[BenG76]

Got mine today.

[punkoffgirl]

The list is shrinking (and has been updated, thanks!)

Just one week away :)

[ThoughtBomb]

Got mine a few days ago and why does it seem like Xmas is so far away? I wanna know what I got!!!

[Jimmy Yakapucci]

Picked my package up from the post office this morning. Judging by the wrapped parcels that I removed from the box, (But did not open!), I think that I will be a busy boy come Christmas morning.

And I got my Secret Santa parcel today which was promptly placed under Ye Olde Tannenbaum. And thus begins many days of staring and waiting...

Woot!

[SamuraiSmurfette]

Received my package today. Under the tree it goes!

[PapaStu]

The USPS Elves delivered my SS package today as well.

[SegaAges]

I left you an e-mail, I got mine today

[hydr0x]

mine arrived yesterday, my girlfriend put it away so I'm not tempted to open it ;)

[Secret Santa]

AB+,

I see your name has been taken off the list. Is this to mean you have received your gift?

[punkoffgirl]

The list is really quite straightforward in that regard.

[hydr0x]

you forgot to remove me from the list ;)

[GrandAmChandler]

I totally got my package today as well. Oh man. I can't wait until Christmas.

[LiquidPolicenaut]

received my package today...

[DDCecil]

Received mine today. Sent e-mail to POG and I put it under the tree.

[punkoffgirl]

I've been told that Canada Post is on strike and mail is taking about 3 days longer than normal to arrive - thought I'd share, because I know a couple of the names left on the list are up that way.

Just so you know they actually just accepted an offer so the strike is now over :D

[Rogmeister]

You mean the Canadians have Christmas in December? I thought since they had Thanksgiving in October, then they must have had Christmas last month.

I'm glad to see only a half-dozen or so names still on the list. Unfortunately, tomorrow is the last mail day before Christmas...could they all possibly arrive by then?

Besides the games I'm giving in this, I'm also giving away 11 other games, all Xbox games, to my nephew. He has a 360 but strongly hinted he'd like to have some of my original Xbox games as a Christmas gift. Money is tight for me this year so I was happy to do that. It saved me some money.

[JustRob]

Update...

On the urging of my girlfriend, I opened the outer box the gift was sent in. Yes, everything inside was wrapped. I replaced them under the tree and now there is another little pile of awesome under the tree.

I just hope whoever it was that received the gift from me this year feels the same excitement and mystery that I did last year and again this year at staring at something you know was picked just for you by someone who shares the same hobby you do.

[Vectorman0]

I'm so excited, I can't wait to open my presents!

[Sosage]

Package received! My wife opened it to make sure it was wrapped. Stuck them under the tree. Can't wait! =)

[hydr0x]

Well, living in Germany I already opened mine yesterday (we give gifts on the 24th) but I'll wait with listing the contents until you guys have unpacked yours :) I think my Santa was querjek but there was no clue included...
