I realize I was a bit vague in my likes/dislikes, etc., but that didn't matter because my Secret Santa GETS ME.

I love to write and my Santa really came through. An awesome vintage fountain pen, ink, a glass beaker, the whole shebang! This is fabulous because 1) I've always wanted to use a fountain pen and 2) I've always been too lazy to just go out and buy one. Problem solved! Santa also sent me a pocket notebook and a huge, delicious chocolate biscuit to keep me satiated while I write with my new pen in my new Moleskine. I love vintage things, filling up new Moleskines, and snacks. HOW DID YOU KNOW?!

Next is everyone's favorite time-traveling alien: Doctor Who! A new sonic screwdriver to add to my collection and a nifty book that recounts the history and uses of the ubiquitous tool. And get this: they are both miniatures. Did I mention I love miniature anything? No, I did not, but my Santa knew anyway! HOW DID YOU KNOW?!

But then my Santa topped him/herself by also sending a book by one of my favorite authors growing up. HOW DID YOU KNOW?!

Finally, in case you're asking yourself: will wonders ever cease? I am here to tell you they do not because I was gifted a quartet of the cutest little felt owl stickers. I LOVE OWLS! I didn't even mention my love of owls, or any kind of animal, in my likes/dislikes. Again, HOW DID YOU KNOW!?

The only answer: my Santa must be stalking me. And I am okay with that.
