and it's still last year's thread....

(btw merc doesn't share, he's all republican-type....)

Rich,

I was your SS this year, I'm sorry that I can't get you a gift. When I signed up to SS this year, I forgot that tuition comes due dec/jan becauselast year I wasn't in college at this time, so no huge bill, and twice the hours at work. I really wanted to do something nice for you but I ran out of time and money, so I left you the message about possible delays, because I was hoping I'd be caught up a little quicker than I have been, but as they're "letting people go" and cutting hours more at work, it doesn't look very good at the moment. I know LR picked me for you because you got screwed last year with Mockingbird not exchanging with you, and I'm sorry to have continued that bad luck for you this year.

I hope you understand.

I share, but only with my friends. You can have some monsta. I'll save you the "old maids".

I had Mockingbird, not rich. Secret Santas were randomly chosen just like last year.

Yes.

The only exception was that I took the newest newbie on purpose. Just in case...

Razzmatazz13 · 01-22-2009, 11:17 PM

...hey, I'm just going by what miss LR PM'd me

or did she tell EVERYONE that so they'd be extra santa-y? Hmm...

(Edit: ok she didn't say MB was his santa...I must've made that up in my crazy brain...but she did say his exchange went wrong or something. So I stand by my pathetic excuse)

Razz, I understand completely. As I said when you mentioned it the first time, I really don't think any trinket is important enough. When you said that you were going to participate, I was more afraid that something was sent and lost in the mail.

Last year I never got any feedback from my SS recipient. I always wondered if my gift got there.

My comment was simply a statement and not a criticism. Please do not take it as one. I'd actually feel better if we considered SS closed for the year. It was the not knowing that made me comment.

I'm very sorry you had to post without the anonymous account. Take care of yourself this year.

BTW, I got my gift last year. It was a very nice drawing. The issue was I never knew if my gift was received.

that's a dick move on your part, in my opinion.

Not really, I'd assumed that it was lost in the mail. It was more about not knowing than anything.

I generally try not to make people feel shitty. If it had that effect then it went far beyond my intent.

That's 'cause Mockingbird was your recipient

monster · 01-23-2009, 08:26 PM

hey razz, are you still in contact with him?

rich, I didn't think you were trying to make me feel bad

I felt plenty bad on my own..and didn't need your help

lol

Seriously though, I wanted you to know what was up, and I figured you were wondering if I sent something or if I was planning on it, so I figured I'd post as me and let you know.

Monster,
I was for a bit, and then he said a crazy ex got ahold of his master email acct info and did crazy things with it (also why he couldn't log into the cellar) He said it would take a few weeks but he thought he could fix it...and then I never heard from him again. This was last year sometime...probably a few months after last years SS. I miss him. lol
