Greed is good.

I mailed off my first Secret Pal package the other day, since our hot streak broke and it’s finally cool enough here to send chocolate and have it arrive in a non-liquid state.

Then I got a great idea for my next package and talked to a lady on the phone who sent me the things I asked for.

And I want to keep them! I don’t want to give them up! They’re so pretty and small and cute!

Help me be strong! I got these for someone else, remind me that I should actually give them to someone else. That’s the whole point of Secret Pal! Arrrrggghh!!!

I got a package from my Secret Pal today! Why, what could it be?

It’s a package of socky goodness! A book of patterns with multiple sizes and formulas for calculating your size, a set of #3 double-pointed needles, some super-cool stitch markers and three skeins of Brown Sheep Wildfoote in my favorite colors!

Let’s take a closer look at those stitch markers, and at the colors on that yarn!

I love it! I was actually looking at some variegated blue Wildfoote when I was in St. Louis, but then thought, “no, be realistic, that’s something you want, but it’s not practical.” And here it is on my doorstep! I’m so happy, I can’t stop using exclamation points! I’m really excited about making me some socks!

Thank you, Secret Pal!

God bless Tessima!

I got a care package in the mail from her today, containing “Diva in the Bath” stuff, and also “Mind and Body PM Moisturizer”.

Possible messages:

A) You deserve to pamper yourself!

B) Even though I only see you once a year, I think you are scaly and smelly and need to do something about it.

I’m pretty sure she means A. Either way, I’m totally psyched! Thank you, Tessima!
