2012: Unofficial GWJ Secret Santa 6.0 feat. Trichy Claus

Vinnie's doing great! I'll have to get some pics up in the pet thread.

I'm in! It was fun last year, so I'm sure it'll be fun this year as well. Trichy, I PM'd you.

If I'm one of the confusing people for my Stanta, here's my wish lists:

Amazon
ThinkGeek
Steam

Obviously, feel free to riff off of this as much as you'd like.

Yesterday a box came in the mail from Amazon. We weren't expecting anything, so my wife opened it up. Lo and behold:

The old school art on the mug is pretty much pure awesome, and the game looks right up my alley- hopefully I didn't scare my wife out of playing it with my geekgasm.

Thanks Boogle!

IT'S NOT EVEN DECEMBEE!!!! Cool sh*t, anyway. If Christmas tunes are on the radio, I suppose it's a good enough time to open stuff.

I wish everyone would make one of those amazon wish lists. (Or at least one person..cough cough)

My policy of buy things I would like pays off again.

To make it easier on my Stanta here are a couple things:

My Amazon wishlist.

There are several games on my Steam wishlist as well, username is Rainsmercy, couldn't find a link for that....

I'll put together a list I guess. I usually use my amazon wish list as a way to keep an eye on things in case they hit a major sale.

My victim should be getting something either today or on monday, according to the email I received when I purchased the item.

So if you are in New York, keep an eye out!

I'll do my Stanta a favor just in case, but I shared this with my family as well. I think the only thing I had hinted earlier was Assassin's Creed 3, but I can't see a GWJer nabbing something like that.

In any event, I cautiously share my wishlist.

I really hope I remembered to strike out 'another hurricane' from my wishlist

Canada Post said that they would have no problem shipping a hurricane, but that your pansy-assed american postal service wouldn't take stuff like that. The USPS said, and I quote "Only Snooki and/or Paris Hilton are allowed to blow an entire coast."

I think my biggest lesson learned is next year I'm going to provide 1) a list of themes and franchises I like (should certainly help with ThinkGeek stuff), and also provide a list of folks from the forums that may know me best so that PM consulting can be done.

If everyone else is doing it: http://amzn.com/w/30YVFQ9X6F6IP

If you have no idea what to get me (then you seriously need help - I provided a fantasticly thorough set of likes/dislikes), just buy me a Raspberry Pi - Model B.

Alright, items bought. Now to wait for their arrival, wrapping, and then the shipping.

According to UPS tracking (Who would *NEVER* lie), the package is on the truck somewhere in New York and is scheduled to be delivered today.

Aaaand, delivered.

If you have a front desk in New York which will sign for things, you might want to go check.

I do not. Clearly you are not my Secret Stan. Neither is anyone who didn't have a wishlist, as I included mine in my initial email to Trichy. I'm narrowing it down, world's greatest detective style.

Ill put mine up when I get home tomorrow.

I didn't think to have my items delivered directly to my victim! Having them shipped here so they can be properly gift-wrapped then shipping to the target.

My mark should get it soon after it is shipped!

It isn't even December yet, you potato-heads!

Spoiler:

Every year I absolutely love this thread. It is daily enjoyment! Pictures are required!

And so it begins.. thank you *so* much, Mudbunny - this is gonna rock!

(now I need to find a second, since Alexis isn't really a beer drinker)

No problem. It really jumped out at me. Lucky for you, the hurricane pushed it back by a month.

Your wife can ignore my friend request on FB now.

She barely ever uses FB. Twitter's generally the best way to be in touch with her.

Hey, wow - that looks super fun!

The final 2 items of my Santee's gift have been ordered. Once they arrive early next week, I'll condense the thing into a package and mail it out

Moss informed me that all 4 seasons of The IT Crowd are on sale next Wednesday on Amazon, if my Stan is stumped. They're on my wishlist as well.
