I don't care what the rest of you elves say, I got the BEST SANTA EVAR. EVAR.

So, I'm a lurker, and I know that doesn't make it easy for Santa's to snoop. But this guy did a freaking amazing job.

First, he was a thoughtful Santa and promptly sent me a message to let me know he was working on my gift. Then, no less than two days later, the first of two packages shows up at my doorstep.

What, oh what could this be?! I don't think Santa could've picked out a more perfect combo gift if he tried. You see, I am a cat lady (yep - curlers in the hair, house coat-wearing cat lady...just picture it! It's pretty amazing if I do say so myself...). And I'm a board gamer. And I volunteer at a shelter. So, what's the first gift? The Crazy Cat Lady Game...DUH!!

OH MY GOD, YOU GUYS!! This might be the most amazing thing in the entire world. I burst out laughing the moment I saw it. I opened it, because the cat lady can't not immediately play the Crazy Cat Lady Game.

squeeeeeee look at the teeny tiny kittes!!! And the cat lady characters! One of them is totally me!

Fast forward to today. Package 2 comes. More freaking amazingness from Santa. First, he sent a Zentangle book...because that's one of my very favorite things to do to relax. If you haven't tried it, Google it. Do it. You'll thank me later!

And the icing on the cake, the crowning piece de resistance...a kitty play toy for the shelter kitties!!!! Complete with message to them - seriously, go look in the photos. Its awesome. I KNEW they were going to love it, so I immediately booked it down to the shelter to bestow Santa's awesomeness onto the cats.

I'm not the most technically savvy person, and that toy was dang hard to put together...but as soon as it went in the play room, I had 5 cats surrounding me, waiting for a turn with their new favorite toy ...or, maybe that was the box. You know how it goes...cats+boxes=irresistible.

Needless to say, this was the absolute best Secret Santa I've ever gotten. Thank you so much, JettaBoy04! You couldn't have done any better. Admins - Can I please rate this gift an 11?!
