Yay! I got my shopping and wrapping all done yesterday, and just have to mail the box today. Is it possible I won’t be the procrastinator this year? :eek: I guess we’ll find out…later… (I think I had more fun with this gift than with any of my families’ this year!) ---

One more time If you have not received e-mails from me (I know about **Purple Haze** and **Least Orginal…** and I’ll have y’all fixed up in a bit) Please write me an e-mail. Can we pin this temporarily, please? Thanks Q ---

Okay, I think I have fixed everyone up with a giftee. For those of you who requested an international shipment and didn’t get one, it was because there just weren’t enough to go around. Again, any probs let me know ASAP. I am spending my last night in Germany and I am about to get seriously drunk, so I’ll fix anything else when I get home tomorrow. Thanks to all who participated.

I received my person’s name, off to shop I go! These are a few of my favorite things: crystals, scented things like candles and potpourri (scents I love: any single floral, particularly plumeria, jasmine, gardinia, lilac, rose, lily-of-the-valley, also spicy/smokey/musky oriental scents) wind chimes, pretty mobile type things to hang and watch in a light breeze or the sun, hair ornamentation (my hair is very long). I love fantasy themed objects, dragons, unicorns, gargoyls and the like. My colors are purple, green and gold. I am also very easy to please! _Simply having a wonderful Christmas time_ ---

Got my email and ordered most of the gifts\* online yesterday, so as soon as they get here I’ll box them with the others\* and send them on their way! \*All small odds and ends that I thought would add up to a nice gift. I’m not trying to be Secret Overachiever or anything. ---

For whoever got me, I like things from wherever you are, musicals, and anything purple. And my b-day is 12/25. My package will go out Sunday (thank the stars NYC has a 24/7 post office), and I hope it gets there on time. It’s going a long way. ---

Ha I got myself, at least for a few minutes. Imagine my suprise when I read the email and said I know that jerk, he’ll be easy to shop for. Now I have to figure out what the person I got wants. ---
