My arbitrary mystery –ok, his name is Brian– santa really went the extra mile for this exchange.

Today I had to go to an early (well, 11 am but hey! that's early by my standards!) meeting almost at the other side of the city. As I was leaving, and preparing myself to battle a lot of traffic, at 9:30 am my rent-a-cop informed me that the mailman had come and I had to go to the post-office to pick-up a package. All I could think was "They close at 4pm! I hope I get back in time". At 2:30 pm I had my gift. :-)
