As I still wait for that other vendor biitch to gimme my $ back. Thank god I found another vendor so quickly & just now sent Nic the tracking # it should be there the 22nd, so I'd appreciate an apology from littleduck for shiit-storm she started once it DOES get there.
A higher note, I'm going hommmeeeeeee tomorrow and my bubble of happiness can't be burst. It's on TPN and picc line, but hey I'll enjoy chewing and spitting out food(joke), but I'll be licking the sugar sprinkles off my fav butter cookies & putting a majority of them in the freezer for me to eat when I can.
I'm so happy for you that you will be home soon, and I hope your recovery speeds up from there so you can get back on your feet doing the things you enjoy.
I will PM you a more thorough apology, but this is a public one. I am very sorry that I overreacted and jumped to conclusions. I admit that after my experience this year with a stalker, I let that cloud my judgement and I should not have been so harsh. While I felt like I didn't receive the whole story, it's not for me to have every detail of your life, and it should not be an expectation. Whether or not your gift arrives, and I am sure it will, I should not have been so hasty.
I hope you will accept my sincere apology, because I am truly sorry to have dragged you out during a difficult time for you.
I fell asleep mid-PM, but thank you. I do accept your apology, honestly I had no idea about the stalker. Being SS coordinator has to suck. We all good now? Until next time..lol kidding.
I'd like to commend littleduck for the good job she's done on the SS. She made it clear at the beginning what the SS expectations were and she wasn't going to put up with any BS.
She may have jumped the gun a bit with kayl, but I think it was because of the previous year's shenanigans.
I agree with this, and moreover, I think anyone who flames LittleDuck should also be required to simultaneously volunteer to run next year's Secret Santa. Because if we keep second guessing how coordinators do their job, WE ARE NOT GOING TO HAVE ANYONE TO DO THIS UNPAID AND THANKLESS TASK. It is not even like being a moderator, she doesn't even get any power out of it. And even if you would have made different judgment calls about when to call people out, remember, it is a JUDGMENT call. Because if she says nothing, and it goes bad, everyone would be like "but whhhyyyy didn't you tell us in time to get Nic something."
I still don't have a SS gift and the tracking number mine sent doesn't seem to be working. Maybe it will come today! I'm being optimistic.
I'll 'fess up since she now knows I'm her SS. I sent her a message when she said the tracking number was off. I also 'fessed up in a Monday thread that her gift didn't go out on time because I lollygagged until Monday. And now I need to find the receipt in my stack-o-receipts to see where I transposed something if the tracking number is off. But she said it was all good since she now knows it's me and not some broke-ass slacker catfish who just wants free gifts.
I'M GOING FOR THE LONG CON, BABEEEE!!!
You'll get your present in June, from Little Duck.
YOU are shaping up to be this year's GoDawg. Lollygagging is not an excuse, and if you do get flakey and wait until the last minute . . . overnight it. You better hope those UPS elves are working overtime and it gets there by Monday. It's not cool to make someone miss the reveal thread.

I already sent it. Monday morning. Priority (albeit not overnight) and it was supposed to be there by Thursday (as in two days ago). Isabel messaged me via Elfster and I responded. She figured it out because...wordy. And that I responded to her non-anonymously probably didn't hurt. She's more okay with it than I am. I'm perturbed that she didn't get it on Thursday when it was supposed to be there. I sent it out the following Monday since I wanted to pick something up that I needed to get out-of-town, and I had a date-certain (Thursday) I was going to be in the town where I could purchase said item(s) and Friday I had other obligations beyond the post office and dry-cleaning. I posted here because at least some people figure that I'm good and it'll get there, rather than there be lots of "OMG OMG OMG another flakey non-gifter! Success!" I had anticipated that it would be End Drama.
