After pretty much all hope was lost the package containing my secret santa gift appeared at my mail box. After spending december and part of January having to convince the USPS that I still lived in my apartment I had assumed the package had been lost in limbo perhaps sent to an island of misfit mail.

How I was wrong! The package that was so graciously sent to me not once but twice managed to fight through the postal system(depicted in reenactment illustration) and made it to me. Thanks very much to my secret santa. I received to jazz cds and a nice little note. The cds appear to be from my santas personal collection and are, according to the note, two of his favorites. Thank you.
