My Santa really came through for me!

Getting the package

At first I was a little worried as postage took some time. I left my house on Friday without receiving the package, to celebrate Christmas with them. When I got back on Tuesday, there was a note from the post office, they had tried to deliver my package but they had left it at the post office. So I ran to my car, got in and drove there as soon as I could. I was surprised by the size of the package, but I couldn't yet open it. I took the package, got back in the car and drove home as quick as possible. Time to unpackage!

Unpacking

I was surprised to find a really thoughtful note, but I had to open the presents first. My thoughts were as follows:

Let's start off with these thin, square packages!

Ooh cool, A Clockwork Orange. Yet to see that one!

2001: A Space Odyssey? She must like Kubrick

Wow, a dobule with The Shining and Full Metal Jacket? She really really loves Kubrick. I've seen FMJ, but that's actually long enough a go to warrant a rewatch. That will keep me entertained quite a couple of nights!

What's this thing?

Eh, a stuffed animal? I'm an adult, dammit!

Oh wait, it's a dog toy! Wow, my lab will love it!

Oh my word, there's even more stuff in here. Gee, she didn't have to go THIS far... I would easily have been happy with the DVD's alone!

Wow, A Chicago Bulls hat! It's so soft, awesome! Now I can finally represent my favorite city in the world from thousands of km's away!

What's this squared thing? Aww, it's a metal Christmas-themed box. What's inside?

CANDY! Lots of Jolly Ranchers (Yep, I'm dealing with a Redditor) and various other American and Mexican kinds of candy. Yummy!

nom.. nom... So, time for the last thing!

Whaat, a Bulls fleece throw? That'll keep me warm when I'm watching the films. Reaally looking forward to those nights!

In conclusion

I'm super super super happy, I never would've expected someone to make a gift this personal and awesome. Thanks so much Santa, if I'm every in NOLA and I'm 21+ (or the US finally lowers its ridiculous drinking age), I'll definitely take you out for a night on Bourbon, drinks on me.

I couldn't have hoped for a better gift, I'm totally blown away. Many many kudos to you, OP!
