I was sitting at my desk this morning, when I was given an amazon box. Hmmm, I wondered, what could this be? I wasn't expecting anything from amazon at the moment. When I saw that the address label had my reddit name, it must be my secret santa gift! Excitedly, I grabbed some scissors and opened the box. I immediately saw the outside of the Funko Pop box. I began to get nervous. I have 3 of the Mass Effect collection already, a recent gift from my fiancé. When I glanced at the front of the package, it was Miranda Lawson! The only one I was missing! (I didn't care for Shepard, as he would never be my Shepard) What luck! Was my secret santa the real santa? How else could he have known which one I was missing? I smiled with glee as I added her to my computer tower of geekery along with her crewmates. Miranda was not alone in there. An adorable Australian Cattle Dog was keeping her company. His happy little face reminded me of my own two pups at home. But those two can be beastly when it comes to plush toys! Surely this little guy would not last more than a day if I brought him home! Thus, I placed him atop my label maker, to stand watch for the throng of figures on my computer tower. Thou he has yet to be named, he is ever watchful.

I could not be happier with these lovely gifts! I only worry that my coworkers will soon stage an intervention if my geekery shows thru any further. :)
