I got a note from the post office that there's a large letter waiting for me. There's nothing else I'm expecting, so, I live in hope :^)

I'll pick it up tomorrow. It's -10 °C here and the post office is 15 mins walk away. Hrrrrr.
Yay! Glad it arrived so quickly. I have to say again, I have been majorly impressed with the speed of the mail lately. |

But in terms of content (a Frandy CD and the present) I think I get a WIN.
The Frandy CD was a definite WIN!! :D
You should've seen my mother's face when she looked into the huge box and saw the wrapped thing - I'd only seen it for like 10 seconds, but she must have taken it out and examined it more closely because she couldn't stop giggling when she came back to the kitchen ;D She also knows what the present is. And she's very good at NOT telling me stuff I really really want to know *lol*
I told her I knew for a fact that you were over 5 years old, BTW ;P
Errr... and I think she MIGHT have wrapped it again so I can't sneak a peek even if I went looking for it *lol* - that would be very Lily's-mom-like.
She re-wrapped my present?????? You don't get to enjoy it in all of its crappy glory??? |

I can't believe that Lily's mom re-wrapped Anne's present! Lol! |

she MIGHT have done that, because she said the wrapping paper was torn off at one side and you could actually see what was inside if you wanted to. Maybe she's only going to put it into a gift-bag or wrap the present with a second layer of paper... maybe she wants me to see your skills ;D |

OK I suppose that is acceptable. I hope she just put it in a bag so you can still appreciate the glory. I am glad she was amused by what she saw. |

Have you tried Facebook?
No luck - there's a Fan site on Facebook for his band, but it's not set up so that I can send him a message. :( Bummer. I don't even have confirmation that his package arrived, and I sent it back in November. |

(Edit)
ok I just searched for him on facebook AND he has his own page, not just the band-page. it's the first page when you type in "Paul Cuthbert" and look for people instead of groups and sites ;P AND you can send him messages, too. |

I hope the rattling means that your Junior Mints didn't turn into one big Senior Mint. Junior Mints are not good travelers. Sometimes they turn to mush before you can get to the movie theater. Nothing else in your package should rattle very much, I hope!!! |
