fun2d8, please e-mail me your address. I’ve got your present all picked out and ready to go, but I’ve lost your address (I’m a dummy, so instead of Secret Santa I’ll be your Stupid Santa).

I’ve tried e-mailing Homer, but I’m not getting a response. I think there may be something going on with that, because when I e-mailed him before (when he lost his excel spreadsheet) he e-mailed me requesting the information two days after I sent it.

I’ve got my present! I haven’t opened it. It’s going under the tree.

Merry Christmas to all you christian dopers and happy winter day to all others.

I’m mailing my secret santa her present tomorrow. Oh, this should be good.

We really need a wicked grin. This will do. 😃

I’m mailing my giftee his/her (I know his/her sex, but I’m being sneaky, you see) present as soon as it’s delivered to me. Should go out sometime this week!

Actually, I have a request for my Secret Santa-- if you send me something and don’t hear from me really quickly, _please_ e-mail me. Turns out a couple of people have had packages go missing from our office mailroom, and wouldn’t you know, that’s the address I gave Homer to use.

Looking Elfin,
