Mulder: It must be an X-File!

Scully: It's not a f***ing X-File!

Okay, give me a few days. I can be more creative. I promise.

My Santa did an awesome job!

I received 5 gifts!

I got 2 X-Files Funko Pop! Vinyls of the best crime/alien fighting duo out there, Mulder and Scully! This was especially amusing because, while I've watched the series and movies multiple times, I've recently become obsessed with the X-Files all over again (currently on Season 8, in case you're curious). And my Santa has good taste, because she loves X-Files, too!

My SO has his own small collection of Funkos, but these are my first. He's currently looking for a good place to put these guys. I love them! I actually found out about them during the Vinyls exchange a few months ago, but they hadn't hit the store shelves yet. I honestly almost bought these guys a couple of days ago but decided to hold off just in case one of my Santas got them for me. Obviously it was smart to wait!

I also received a puzzle toy for my dog, which was much needed! I don't feed my dog out of a bowl anymore (aiming for good mental stimulation), but he's gotten quite bored of his current toy selection. I was just about to buy him a new toy, but now I don't have to! He loves it, and is currently slobbering on my couch with it!

I mentioned to my Santa that I studied Russian in college, but sadly have forgotten most of it and would love to continue learning the language. My Santa sent me a book full of Russian short stories in their original Russian format, alongside the English translation! I love books set up in this way, and plan on going through it over the weekend!

And finally, I received "Flowers for Algernon," a book that my Santa says they love. I read this in 6th grade and remember it being incredibly sad, but sweet. I collect books, especially the classics, so this is a perfect addition to my collection! I'll be (re)reading it soon!

Thanks so much, Santa! I hope your Santa is just as generous to you!
