This is by far my most well thought out gift that I've received to date. I have only been part of the exchanges for 1 year, but this rematch blew my mind!!! Now I'm convinced that somewhere out there is my long lost soulmate...

Ironically enough, this was a dark, cold, stormy, and icy night... It was a long careful drive home, and I was so stoked to see the box on my porch when I arrived home from work a couple days ago. After 12 long hours where I work, it's nice to have a surprise when you get home!! Needless to say, I couldn't wait to open it. I must also mention that this is my totally rockin rematch Santa for this exchange, and they more than made up for my bad luck with the first match!!! Hopefully you'll be able to follow along with me in my journey with the pics! ;)

To start with, when I opened the box I saw the air puff packing thingies. I quickly tore those out and got down to business. Under that was plain brown packing paper. I slowly lifted that open and found yet another layer of orange tissue paper. Was my santa trying to torture me? Cause it's totally working already... The first part of the gift was sitting under that. Whew!!! I'm seriously dying with anticipation. The first thing was a small gift bag with black and purple spiders and spider webs on it. Inside I could see 2 envelopes. A white one and a black one. I started with the white one. It looked safer, and had adorable stickers all over it. I opened it to find a Happy Halloween card. But, then when I opened it, I noticed it was much more than a card... But a gift card to Amazon!!! Yay!!! I can't wait to buy a little something for myself. :) I sat the black envelope aside for a bit. It said "Open at your own risk," so I wasn't quite ready to see what was trapped in there...

Next in the box was a large bag of life saver 'scary shapes' gummies. Yummy!! I told my santa that I love gummies and sweet tarts, and they made sure to deliver! Next in the layers was an amazingly awesome DVD of the Most Evil Serial Killers. I can't wait to watch it!!! I love learning about true crime and serial killers. I know, I'm twisted. But, don't let them fool you, this Santa is my soulmate and just as twisted as me. I love it!!! Under that was another small gift baggie with some candies inside and an adorable little beanie baby "Fangs" the bat keychain. He quickly made his home with a new/old friend of mine. He's keeping my "Shooga" sugar glider from a previous exchange company now, along with my work token. I get to hang out with both of them every day I work. :) Inside the bag of candy were some interesting choices... First I noticed a bag of sweet tart sour chews. I love these things!!! They are so delicious. Then there were some vampire fangs with liquid blood candy goo... Creepy. I can't wait to see how it looks. Then I noticed some small pieces of candy of warheads, jolly ranchers, and jolly rancher chews. Next to those was a roll that at first appeared to be smarties. Oh, but it was something so different. Warheads sour coolers. I've never seen these before, so I was excited to try them and couldn't wait. They taste like a sour candy mixed with a peppermint. It was a very unique flavor. After sampling these, I noticed the strangest part of this bag of goodies.... Booger gummies. That's right, I said Booger. Gross. Naturally, I felt compelled to try them to see what they tasted like... I mean, who wouldn't... Chewy, but a little tougher than the life saver gummies. And they tasted kind of like apple flavor. Do boogers really taste like chewy apples?? I hope I never find out for sure... haha.

Next in the adventure layers was the cutest Mummy Pooper. Oh my gosh. I had to open it and watch it poop. So, I loaded it up and turned it on. It quickly shuffled and flapped it's butt flap as candies fell out and soiled the table. It couldn't get any cuter! Then under and around all that stuff were 2 boxes of sweet tarts, 2 bags of mini chewy sweet tarts (one of my favorites), a bag of sweet tart gummies, and yet another large bag of Life Saver gummies.

By this time I can't even contain how ecstatic I am to have gotten so much amazing tucked inside one small box. Then I remember the dark black envelope that I managed to avoid at the beginning of this adventure.... So, I find it in my pile of goodies and check it over. I don't see any blood or guts and smell anything foul, so I figure it can't bee too bad. Then I see the cute candy corn washi tape on the back of it. Now it's just lost its intimidation factor... hahaha. That is, until I open it. Inside I find a small blue piece of paper that says "Boo" on the outside and is folded in half. I unfold it to find a hand written message from my secret rematch satan. Errr... Santa. ;) I read that then went for the white pages that were folded up. As I read the title on those, the hand written letter started to make more sense. As I read through everything they had written out for me, I could sense they had the same dark and twisty mind and sense of humor that I do. Hence the reason I'm convinced they are my long lost soulmate. Whoever you are!!! Not to mention, with each part I read, I can feel my Amazon wish list getting longer and longer.... Ugh!!! So many great things to google and research and watch and read and just generally ponder.... AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!

By this time I'm just soaking up the totally fabulous thought that went into each and every piece of this gift and I can't even fathom starting to thank them for everything, not to mention all the time and effort that went into all of it. You, my soulmate, are one amazing person. I wish I knew who you were so we could talk more and discuss the things in your 'list', but for now I will have to settle for your words of wisdom from one dark mind to another!! Thank you for everything!!!! <3
