Yes, by all means tell who you are in the card. The only surprise is you know something is coming, you just dont know what or from who until you get it.

Idol, is it too early to send the gift now?  I got my person their gift.  I would assume the person that gets the gift keeps it on the down low on the boards until after all the gifts/cards are exchanged so that the other people who haven't gotten their gifts/cards yet can't mark my person(and myself of course) off the list, narrowing down the the amount of people who get them for the exchange.  If its too early I don't mind waiting, just give a estimate on a date when I should send it.

I'm so horrible about this.  I keep meaning to do it and keep forgetting, and keep running into shit that keeps me from doing it.  Seriously, I'm a horrible person.  Someone should send me a kick in the head for Christmas.

Just wanted to give a heads up. I got carried away with work, so I won't be able to send out my gift till next week, so someone might get it a bit late. DON'T KILL ME!

I've been trying so hard to think of something cool to give and I've got nothing.  My life is an utter disaster right now and as soon as I think I have things under control it just falls apart completely.  I just can't think or concentrate or make sense of anything.  I think this year it's just going to be a (very late) card, and probably a pretty shitty one at that.  I apologize in advance to the person who will receive it.  I'm a bad person and should be hit with blunt projectiles.

That kind of annoys me.  I initially was going to send out the package on Thursday and selected 2nd day w/ Saturday delivery.  But it turned out that overnight was a little cheaper so I went with that.  So it should have been there Friday, but I guess it doesn't really matter.  I could probably get my money back though if I called FedEx.

Thanks, idol.  We got your package today and you really made our day.  The first thing we did was go and look through all the photos on the disk, and I changed my background about 50 times in the course of the viewing, heh.  We decided we'd stick with Mr. Bunny for the time being.   ;D

Seriously, that was awesome of you.  We had a great time with everything and Julia loves her gift too.

I still haven't sent mine out... I'm hoping to do it tomorrow but there's been a whole bunch of crap happening.  I can make excuses until I'm blue in the face and it still doesn't change the fact that I'm a flaky bastard, though.  Still... hopefully tomorrow.  I just really wanted to do something that didn't suck and it's not happening.  So... prepare for boringness, mystery person.

I had to admit that I'm not a creative person at all, and just get something pretty generic, but hopefully useful at least.

I was just about to unsticky this thread, but thought I'd ask: did everything work out ok for everyone? Did you send and not receive? Want to make sure everyone did what they were supposed to do.

Well, I sent and I received, but I never got word if anybody received what I sent (which could possibly be just because they hate me for sending something so shitty).
