HPN SECRET SANTA '18 - check PMs....

[tricksforchips]

tricksforchips, thank you so much for the extremely thoughtful gifts and letter!! I've listened to the a-side of your partner's album and it rules, and I'm looking forward to checking out your film soon. Very touched by your letter - my wife was shocked because she thinks your writing looks just like mine. I'm excited to read the Goldman essays - I've never read her before but I've been curious for a while. Hope you have a happy New Year - your package really made my day!!

Glad you liked it. Have a happy new year! xo

[goofjan]

What a haul! Thank you, important dentist!! (ID was my secret santee last year so this was really special.)

Please note the Whataburger spicy ketchup. I had some of the Round Rock honey in my tea this morning and today I'm gonna BBQ tempeh. This package rules.

I'm running late with my package but should be sending it out this week, so stay tuned my santee!

[RIXX]

SASSAFRAS SOCKS! ahhhhhh i'm sorry i got ur package on like Friday and I've been visiting so much family and friends and I'm a total weirdo and like to be in a really good mental state and setting to open a package but i finally opened it today and i'm seriously in love with everythingg

first thing first...i burst out laughing when i read ur note about the gift wrapping cus it's the exact amazon gift bag I used for my own secret santee this year. even down to the red color lmao

i’m super amped to read The Killing of the Unicorn, it's extremely my shit. and perfect timing because I have my five hour flight from LA to NY tomorrow and i'm pretty bored with what i'm reading currently so i'm gonna get on that ASAP. it sounds amazing

the madeleines DID in fact survive the journey and they r incredible. I had two and then it dawned on me that I still had to take a picture of everything and I was like FUCK... but this is also good timing because i've been eating like absolute shyte this holiday break and have sorta given up until I get back to brooklyn tomorrow and start a strict cutting regimen. so I'm gonna share them all with my family tonight as we binge thru homecoming.

and finally, that tote. my GOD it is amazing. i have this awful old gross tote I got with my Out magazine subscription and i've been halfheartedly looking for a new one so this is absolutely fucking perfect. it's such a cool design and the dude is hot as hell and as far as the range of ToF artwork goes, I will feel totally comfortable with this one on the train or something haha. i've texted a pic of it to like six friends and my insta already, i'm in love

anyway thxx 4 everything and i hope ur holidays have been great <3

Dear Secret Santa (ykwya),

I am in fact such a baby boarder that I don't know what your alias is, but thank you for the artwork and card! I love your illustration very much.

I actually found a nice old frame outside the other day that nearly fits perfectly. Just gotta cut a new mat. c:

[milano boy]

i apologize to my recipient for the delay. i'm hoping to get it shipped out in the next week!

[guy forget]

All my items are acquired and I plan to mail them next week. They should arrive by 2/1 but if they are a little late please don’t pillory me!

[pantsoclock]

I am a bad person and have been moving across the country so I am so far behind on this. I assure you that it is still on my mind.

[guy forget]

i once got boarder wendy her secret santa gift in like fuckin july

don't be like me, but as long as you get it there it's nbd

[trigross]

Yr package should arrive the 24th, secret santee!!

[Zardoz]

Your package has been released into the postal matrix!

[Sports Fan of the Year]

Will be sending my package at some point over the next week : )

[pantsoclock]

I'm officially the christmas bastard because I got my amazing gifts from trigross and haven't even gotten my gifts to give yet. Thank you, trigross!

[trigross]

Glad it arrived safely. Hopefully you could read my handwriting. If not, remember to check behind Kate Bush for a lil extra treat that will make u feel like you can go cloudbusting

[pantsoclock]

I always double check both sides of my Kate Bush buttons, thank you.
(But seriously thank you)

[guy forget]

my box is going in the mail by the end of business today!!

[pantsoclock]

waiting on one thing to get delivered then I'm finally making good.

[important dentist]

just got this kickass package from guy


that is a huge-ass bag of reject jelly beans which i am super excited about. also to try the beers, wear the shirt, and (maybe excited isn't the right word but certainly interested) read the book

thanks for the great late gift guy!

[guy forget]

as soon as i found out a couple weeks ago that jelly belly sells their reject beans i knew it'd become a staple gift for the foreseeable future

[churrokbyme]

should i start watching eeyore videos

[RIXX]

Gay Santa here,
I know that not everyone has received gifts yet, but please do not lose hope, we got a really late start in December this time around and I expected that this would impact when y'all would send out and receive ur presents.

I am gonna do a really friendly check-in in maybe a week or so to see how the gift-giving is going, if anyone needs ideas, etc. I wanna make sure no one ends up without a present this year, even if it means I have to send them myself

[deadbass]

You are the best!! Can I make a request?? If anyone is a repeat offender of not sending gifts, do you mind sending them the video clip from your av? Particularly the part where Jake says "It's NOT the first time."

[naturemorte]

ok i finally pulled my shit together and will have my package out tomorrow, swear to freakin' god

also, hoping something comes in the mail for me sometime soon!

[RIXX]

i had to get a specific thing from a specific person at my flea market that i dug & that's secured so should be gtg as soon as i can get to a post office [i.e., mon/tues]. maybe i am your secret santa, churro or nm! you never know!

those of us who're late probably oughta pm rixx the trackin # when it goes out. i will do that if it helps santa sleep at night!!

i like this idea alot. not mandatory by any means but if you want to PM me your tracking number as soon as you get it, I will send it to ur santee!!
