I received a box from 1800flowers.com to me c/o Dlp140 and thought it was a joke. If you look at my redditgifts history, you can better understand why I'm a little apprehensive about the boxes in which I receive my gifts.

However, I opened the box and was delighted to see that it contained, indeed, flowers. Along with the flowers was a personal note informing me that my Santa was running late and that the flowers were to hold me over until my true gift arrived.

I wanted to post everything at once but it's been over a week and I want to make sure I post something so that my Santa doesn't lose credit.

I'm not too concerned with receiving my "gift" because the flowers made a nice addition to my room. If my Santa does send something else, I will be sure to update this post.

Update: A package arrived recently addressed to me c/o Dlp140 so I assume it was the follow-up to the flowers. The package was sent from "Sony Playstation" so I didn't know what to expect. The package contained three books, all of which were on my wish-list, and a game called Skull & Roses.

The books were "Survivor" and "Invisible Monsters" both by Chuck Palahniuk as well as "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie.

The game Skull & Roses describes itself as follows:

"Experience combat without mercy between fierce biker gangs: Eagles, Snakes, Panthers, Bulls, Werewolves and Himself.

"Skull & Roses" is a pure game of bluff in which you will need nerves of steel, audacity and subtlety in the face of unforgiving enemy gangs!

Your Challenge: turn over as many cards as possible without revealing the Skull. After two victories, you'll have earned a sweet carpet of roses!"

I look forward to reading all of the books as well as playing the game.

Thank you, Santa. You done good.

Cheers!
