    So separate thread?

    What if every person had an assigned reveal date for each day of Saturnalia? Mayhaps that would be too complicated, but it might be nice to spread reveals out over the course of the week...

    It's something different.
    My giftee figured it out already, one of the few I'd had some extensive conversations with in the past. Once you know me I'm an open book.
    I'm hoping the other half showed up safely though.

    Soooo... I recently received my SS package. And, um, yeah, the urge to tear into it is eating at me. I think I need reasons to open it now encouragement/convincing to wait.

    I hope I'm not the only one :oops:

    When I'll get mine, somewhen soon I guess, I will open it, not to see what is in and/or try guessing who Santa is, but only for the purpose of checking everything is OK inside the package (who knows, there may be perishable goods of some sort :D).

    I swear !!!!

    Upon returning home from Thanksgiving travels with a 2 year old I found a package waiting for me. I was a little puzzled at first because it was addressed to TheRed, a name only a few of my friends from school use. Then I saw that the sender was @TypeCoin971793 and it immediately dawned on me what the package is. Needless to say I can't wait to open it.

    Some of you accused me of unfairly teasing you when I posted a completely censored image of my coin. Your concerns have been heard, and I take them seriously. Therefore, let me address these baseless allegations by stating that without further delay here is roughly 15% of the obverse of my Secret Santa gift.

    It would be quite a trick if someone could identify from that image!!

    That's pretty small.
    Can I take a stab at a guess?

    I'm waiting until the last minute to mail so the recipient will not be tempted.
    Or I'm just lazy...

    I don't know if I have a package waiting for me or not. I don't go home until December 15th, so I only have 2 days to wait until Saturnalia. :smuggrin:;)
