Argh. So I ordered something for my SS without realizing it came from China. Knowing it usually takes like 4-6 weeks I ended getting her something else. Guess what just showed up in my mailbox today? Too bad I already shipped her box yesterday.

Exactly- I taught junior high and you'd never guess what was under my sweet little knit sweater, lol. One of my kids was obnoxious and was like, "why do you always wear long sleeves? I bet you have a bunch of tattoos. Do you? SHOW US!" She ended up being sent away for being disruptive and trying to demand I take off clothes. ...yeah, no kid. Byeeee.

And I'm in school now to be a nurse. =p hell, even some doctors have sleeves under their coats

Lol, I had the beauty rep at Target the other day (very properly dressed woman, nice makeup) grab my wrist and gush over my frog. Then she proceeded to tell me about the frog she has on her butt. You never know who has what where anymore

I've had such a mixed bag of transit times for items ordered from China too.  I've gotten them really quickly and a month + later with these little small items.  Bah, sorry she missed out!

Dear Santee,

I'm waiting for a few more items to trickle in.  Some orders I placed over a week ago haven't arrived yet, but I think (and hope) you will enjoy what I have put together for you.  I'm hoping to put together some decorations for your box in the meantime but I'm still not quite clear on what sort of theme would suit you outside of possible colors. Your gift will still be on time, but it probably won't be among the super early. Hopefully it will be quite worth the wait!  <3

Dear Santa,

I hope I gave you enough direction, and I hope that you had as much fun with the process as I have.  I was a little bad and picked up a few small items during all the sales, but nothing that I mentioned in my wishlist stuff.  Please don't hesitate to elf me for any questions.  I am excited to see what you have picked out for me, but I am in no hurry so do not feel rushed.  I will be waiting quite patiently.  I appreciate you.  <3

 
Dear Santee -

I am waiting on ONE MORE item to come so I can send your goodies out to you!! I hope you like them! I had so much fun shopping for you once I did all of my stalking!

I know it seems that I have not participated much, but this thread moves so fast! My jobs keep me very busy even when I am at home but I am always thinking of y'all!!

Hope everyone is having a great week!

<3 Lola

 
Hello Santee!  Got my flight of fancy popcorn from KuKuRuZa, first sampled through Love With Food (am not getting paid for this endorsement).  They are amazables!  (still not getting paid, damn, I wish their PR or marketing would get a word spider and send me 50 bags for mentioning their name...)  Just on suger high right now!!  

I know you are chocolate fiend like me so I ordered the S'mores for you, but they didn't put it in!!!  So I'm going to put it out there  for voting:

Fancy Nut Caramel

Maple Bacon

Tuxedo

Coconut Macaroon

Eggnog Brandy

Ther's one more flavor - Pumpkin Spice Pecan, but that one is in my cheeks, I am popcorn chipmunk.  Your skin looks so dewy that I think you are 17, so the Eggnog Brandy might not be a good idea.... or am I rationalizing?

I've emailed them on missing bag.   I plan on sending your box out no later then a week from today.  I'm all over NYC for my work so want to see if I can pick something cool and New Yorky for you.  If I could send you a Katz pastrami sandwhich I would, ohhh my...

 
All this talk about tatoo has gotten me wanting to do something, but with hair.  Tweakabell, your post from 4 days ago on dying your ends and using a rubberband keeps purring in my head.  I want to dye my ends another color!  Did you lighten your ends first?  My hairs nearly jet black and I probably have to destroy it first don't I?  

Any colorist out there?  I vaguely remember there are celephane (spelling?) techniques out there for a shear color coat, do you think that would show up on my hair?  And can I do it myself?

I personally would take any of those. But since it is the holiday I would go with the eggnog.

On my way to the post office..my SS gift will be on the way!!!
So excited!! Hope she likes everything!!
I love that saying from Birchbox on the side!, anyone would be lucky to see this in the mail. I'm sure she will love everything in it. Everyone has all been so generous and it makes me happy to see all the goodies going out, I can't wait to send mine off. Hoping she will like what I picked for her as well.

They all sound delicious but since she loves chocolate, I'd go with tuxedo.
 
@FormosaHoney if you're my SS, forget the beauty items -- just send me a Katz pastrami sandwich.

At the time my hair was blonde (I dye my hair seasonally blonde in spring/summer, burgandy in fall/winter) but yes I did lighten the ends because it came with it and I usually don't so I said screw it and used it lol. I am going to trim my ends soon anyway. I do a hair tie across the bottom so I have a usually pretty crisp line of color across the back. I usually wear a ponytail so it looks really pretty up, all different heights and streaks.

 
I want all the popcorns!  Prob fancy nut or maple bacon or um, all kinds.

I love salty with sweet or spicy with my sweet for sure.

But alas, I do not appear a sweet 17, so clearly I get none of the popcorns.

 
I think that they all sound pretty good except for the maple bacon (I'm a vegetarian and I hate the taste of meat. Bacon is particularly offensive to my herbivore tastebuds) and the eggnog brandy (I am only 17 and not of age to drink, although I do like virgin eggnog). Out of curiosity, what is tuxedo popcorn?

 
Mmmmmmmm popcorn.  Tuxedo sounds awesome.  When I was in high school my favorite coffee drink was a tuxedo with a double shot of espresso.

I could be wrong, but I think it popcorn with chocolate and white chocolate.
