First of all, let me just say that my secret santa stalked the crap out of me. The attention to detail, not to mention the generosity of my santa, was absolutely incredible.

The Holidays were pretty crappy for me this year (a lot of work, a lot of bad news, and it was the third anniversary of my dad's death). I was not in a very good place, and I was struggling to try to see the positive side of things.

And then I got home at 1am this Friday (Saturday, technically?) and found all the boxes piled up in my bedroom.

Santa, you completely turned my whole Holiday season around. I felt pure joy and happiness. It was like being a little kid again on Christmas morning. I spent about two hours just tearing wrapping paper like some deranged, giddy child. I must've said "Oh my God!" about a thousand times. I was exhausted after my flight, but way way too excited to sleep.

I can't remember the last time I was that undeniably happy. You made me forget my troubles for a while, and I woke up the next day full of energy and feeling like "You know what? Fuck sadness."

So thank you, thank you, thank you so much. It meant more to me than you will ever know, and I wish I had the words to properly express my thanks.

I LOVE EVERY SINGLE THING YOU SENT
