JUST A REMINDER FOR THE UPCOMING REVEALS.  

We want to see *every* detail, because we're just as excited as you!  BUT - please remember that this is a public website, that can be seen by anyone, not just other members.  Please DO NOT post pictures of the box that contain your address!  Because we're concerned for your safety, it's actually part of our Terms of Service to NOT post personal info.  I've quoted the rule below.  Thanks!

It's totally OK!  I feel bad that I forgot to post the reminder before people started putting up reveals!   :hugs3:   I want all of you to be as safe as possible from Those Bad Things We Hear About On The Internet!

 
I just came back from my vacation today.  I've been reading up on this and the reveal thread when I had some down time. I had so much fun on vacation!  I ended up getting a pretty bad sunburn on my face and chest though.  I always wear sunblock but one day I went on a dolphin cruise for about 3 hours and forgot to put it on and ahh I got so fried.  I did get to see a lot of wild dolphins though so that was awesome.  I picked up my FGC some little things as well.  I plan on mailing it Monday.  I have to mail it or I'm going to keep picking up more and more things.  I can't wait to mail it though :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

 
Blargh.  Thrilling evening:  Screaming at Verizon and trying to make it clear to them that it's not "frustrating" that I have been charged sales tax for FIVE YEARS after I moved to a state where sales tax does not exist.  It's infuriating, and it's theft.  I was going to let it go since I was told I would be getting a $120-something credit, but then when my bill arrived, they decided to deny the credit without *telling me* that this was going on.  Now they're telling me that I need to file paperwork with the state of Washington to get my money back.  Credo Mobile, here I come.  (Except it's so late in the billing cycle and my contract that I'll stay with Verizon until mid-August because I am *not* willing to give them an early termination fee since it's going to be more than my remaining payments.)

(Yes, I recognize I went full metal b*tch on the rep and the supervisor.  The conflicting things I've been told are unacceptable.  On the up side, I think the statements I have access to -- only 18 months, but better than nothing -- show that I've paid over $150 in sales tax, not $120 like they were going to credit me.  Too bad I'm pretty sure I shredded all of my pre-2013 bills.)

 
Get excited everyone, we're gonna have another reveal later today!! 

@@JC327 is my FGM ya'll, and I cannot wait to open her gift and post pics! Happy Friday indeed :)

Yay so excited! Hope you like everything. I was trying to be a ninja and not post anything so it would be a complete surprise.

 
Eek! USPS says I have a package sitting on my landing right now! This has been a stressful, crappy, snarly week, so this will be super ultra mega exciting. (I might have to wait until after I get back from the grocery store -- read: settled in for the evening -- before I open and post, just to get a little more distance from work.)

 
Spoiler alert! I'm headed to the Post Office!

I'm loving those colors & is that TAFFY I see?  I forget how much I love taffy until I see it.  We don't have it here, but when we lived in CA & UT it was everywhere.  Yum.  Lucky FGC you have indeed.

 
Ooh, the thing I ordered that I thought was going to take another week or two is shipping this weekend!  I might have it by Tuesday!  There are still a few extra things I want to try to pick up, but I was a little worried this item would be pushing the shipping deadline.

(In completely unrelated news, my Scherezade hair gloss shipped today!  Yay!  And they're doing a Dragon's Milk hair gloss as well!  I naturally ordered that one.  I think I deserve it after the week I've had.  This whole vote-for-a-general-catalog-scent-and-a-product-type-each-month thing BPTP has going on is a very dangerous thing.  I'm hoping they hold off on Morocco hair gloss for a while just so I have time to use the other ones I already have or have on order!)

Yes ma'am! I'm the same way, I don't see taffy too often but have never met a taffy I didn't like :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
