I have to admit and apologize, I literally gave my Secret Santa nothing to go off of. Compared to what everyone talked about, I feel ashamed lol

However, Santa came through, and in awesome ways! Santa must have used all sorts of Claus-fu (i.e. reddit-stalking).

Boxes arrive at my door. Yes two, not one. It was a blustery Saturday afternoon, coming home from work on the coldest of days all year, I hurry them into the house to warm up.

I open the first box, and what do I see? A Dammit Doll head! Its a modern day take on a stress ball. I literally use a stress ball everyday at work, one of those cheesy foam balls with some insignificant corporate logo on it. This is where the Claus-fu came in to play. I freakin' love this thing!

Box # 2, a little heavier, so I ponder what it could be. As I am pulling it out, I can kind of make out that its a book, with a 3 inch binding! I am groaning to myself, am I really going to devote so much time to read a novel so long? Until then.... the book emerges. "1,000 Places to See in the United States & Canada Before You Die". HOW FREAKIN' COOL? I LOVE travelling domestically, long road trips are my thing. Skimming through this book showed me some great reviews of place, well thought out opinions, and all the time just making me itch to get out on the open road more and more. It will take me years to visit a portion of the places in this book, but this is a keeper I will DEFINITELY be reading from cover to cover.

Secret Santa, you nailed it. Thank you VERY much for your thoughtfulness and generosity. Merry Christmas!
