I was listening to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H55tvfDzgyw and I hear a knock at the door. Who can it be but UPS with a large box!!!!!

I brought the plain brown box inside with 2 of my 4 roommates present. All 4, men and women, are entirely enchanted by this entire experience... thanks reddit and kickme :) you've made all of our holidays that much more meaningful/special. They shook the box and felt it. All 6 lbs. Was it a football helmet? What could it possibly be?

I slice open the tape on the box with my knife to reveal another box under paper scraps. This box is neatly wrapped with care. Tinkerbell wrapping paper to boot! I also noticed a hand written address label on this box -- the handwriting was impeccable.

I snapped a photo and carried on with the paper ripping. It's kinda nice to warm up the hands with present season on the horizon :)

Within the wrapping paper was an Adidas shoe box. Let me tell you, this box did not contain shoes... Within was four, (4), FOUR!!!! wrapped gifts, TREEEEES and a note. The note was greatly hand written. Written in the same impeccable handwriting as the label. Was is possibly my santa was a female? The thought had crossed my mind but now my roommates and I were sure of it. The care with which the packages were wrapped. The handwriting, the perfectly straight horizontal printed letters and kind words in your note. My roommates laughed line after line -- gasping at your gratitude when you mentioned you've included "trees" within your package. I continued to read the note until my lips spoke: Nate. The room fell silent and then all at once burst into laughter: I dug into the gifts.

First was an item I commented on: Peanut Butter & Co Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Peanut Butter - http://ilovepeanutbutter.com/cinnamonrasinswirl.html I just made a sandwich with this and my next gift. Exquisite to say the least.

Second Item was something I've had before and loved but I've never owned. So happy to finally have my hands on some gnutella and I added it to the peanut butter. Great choice!

Third up was The Iron Giant DVD. I've never seen it but I'm familiar with it. Can't believe I haven't seen it through my elementary school work over the past ten years! I can't wait to watch this flick.

Fourth up was another DVD, but this was a dvd, within a blu ray, within a shoe box, within a plain box. I think I got that right. My santa got me the Blu-ray+dvd+digital copy version of Inception!!! I did not see the movie in theaters and have heard nothing but good things and memes about it so i'm excited to watch that wednesday :)

Lastly was the TREEEES. My santa trolled me 1/2 way. I was already eating the Reese's Trees when I was looking through the scraps of packaging and wrapping paper for the "trees" my santa included as I realized Reese's were the only trees I was getting. We all had one more good laugh and proceeded to eat one of the 2 bags in ten minutes.

Thank you so much Santa. The best to you and yours this season!
