Unfortunately I don't know my Santa's username because she deserves imaginary Internet points for this.

My gift request was for a donation to be made to Hurricane Sandy relief in lieu of a gift, so I was surprised to see that a package had been sent my way.

Today said package sat on my doorstep, so me and my cat immediately got to work examining its contents. A card, a mysterious box, and a mini football. My Santa donated $50 to the Red Cross but also heaped goodies upon me.

The box was screwed shut, but by skillfully removing these screws with a "screw un-doer", I was rewarded with its secret contents! Some Ice Breakers gum, TJ's Taco Seasoning, a jigger (which is one of those things I've never bought, but wanted so kudos Santa), some Starbuck's dark chocolate (this picture is all that remains), a catnip mouse and a vibrating bug (both have been absconded with by my assistant). Assorted clips were also included, which I will make use of (I am perpetually disheveled and cluttered).

Since this is somewhat of a surprise, I have made it my goal to use all of these things within 24 hours. My cat assistant, Dr, Newman, concurs.

Thank you Santa! This was quite unexpected.
