    All right. I'm about to go out and fetch my package and open it at the stroke of midnight.

    But should I wait for @John Anthony's cue before sharing the photos? Maybe so.

    Anyway, at least *I* will know, in just a -

    Oh, hey, look! It's midnight!

    December 17th has begun in the Eastern US time zone.

    You know what that means! :):brb:

    I am a Creature of the Night. :vamp:

    Technically, I am a hotel night auditor. Normally by this time of night I'd just be getting started on my shift, so small wonder I'm awake at midnight on my night off.

    Packing material seems to be regular old corrugated cardboard rather than wombat foreskin. Aw, gee, what a letdown.

    Oh, well. I suppose wombat foreskin is rather expensive, even Down Under. And then there's the harvesting and processing, and so on...

    But I digress.

    OK.

    I'll leave it at this. A sneak peek, if you will.

    Can't wait to see what everone else got, and hope my belatedly-launched shipment gets to my recipient soon.

    Cellphone pix taken in daylight might look better anyway.

    G'night. I'll go look at some other threads, get a midnight snack, and then get back in bed with sleeping spouse and heap o' cats.

    Because tonight, I can.

    Mine went out late--the wife dropped it off at the post office yesterday. Apologies to the recipient--end-of-semester is rough, especially when you're both grading and submitting papers.

    I'll post pictures of mine soon. I opened it a few days ago--I'd had a bad day and it made my bad day a great day. More by week's end!
