So my Santa told me they'd be sending me my gift via Amazon, and I was psyched! He said that he felt like he was shopping for himself, which is always fun.

I should preface that I don't make much money, and with a cat that recently passed and required vet bills, my gifts were immense. Signing up for Reddit Santa was fun because no one I know really celebrates the holidays, nor does my family, so it's nice that I finally got to give a gift with thought.

Santa sent me a note telling me two of my gifts would come in two days due to Amazon, and a third is a custom piece (which he noted would be arriving in about two weeks, so this is just the first half). That said... I got my first gift, the Captain America Pop! Bobble Head and was SUPER PSYCHED! It was Winter Soldier, and I couldn't be happier. Then, the next day...

A FRIGGEN GUITAR. MY SANTA GOT ME A FRIGGEN GUITAR AND STARTER KIT. OH MY GOD. I actually started crying when I opened it. I kept thinking that the giant package was a standup or something, maybe a board game, but a guitar?! I've never gotten such thoughtful gifts, and the very idea I could have a custom piece on the way makes me incredibly grateful. I wish I could hug my Santa, because this is one of the most incredible things I've ever gotten for the holidays. I've wanted a guitar forever, and now I can finally learn :)
