Woo00t!!
So I come home from work kinda pissed off because I had left my car lights on for several hours in the afternoon. Grr! This is the second time I've done it in a week, so I obviously have a problem.

ANYWAYS, you don't care about that. On to the package. I walked around the corner of the house to my entrance, which is the basement suite, and laughed as soon as I saw the package.



Yay! It made me so happy! Thanks Debster - it totally rocks!

In this first picture, we have a shotglass that says Motown, a vase-type thing (I think), some white chocolate, lip balm, and a Michigan pen. You must be psychic or something, because I collect shot glasses, and love white chocolate! Or maybe I mentioned that, I can't remember. Either way - too cool for words!



Next we have a Michigan postcard and two journals. The one with Frosted Flakes is hilarious - that used to be my favourite cereal as a kid. Brings back great memories!



And lastly we have a mix CD and mini highlighters. So fun! I can't wait to listen to the music. I'm sure it will be fabulous. I'm a bit ashamed to say that I haven't heard of any of the songs you included, but that's totally awesome, because it's going to expand my musical taste, which I'm totally wanting to do right now.



Thanks so much for a rocking package, Debster! It totally made my night. I'll be getting mine out in the mail tomorrow.!

Hello Fun Package!
After a long day of work, I finally arrived home and found this sitting at my front door:



That's my house! Sometimes I still can't believe I live there (I love my house).

Anyway, here's a closeup of the package:



It was a busy package day for me, because I also got some doormats that my mom got for me.

I quickly went inside to open the package in private.

The first thing I saw was a very nice card taped to the outside. It had a cool saying on the front:



Here's the cool bag, it didn't get too wrinkled during transit.



The first thing I found was a bunch of writing stuff, a notebook, some notecards with a D on them (very cool!), sticky notes, and some pens:



Then I pulled out some sour candy, which I love:



There were some postcards of where Tobie's from:



and



It looks really pretty!

There was also a Mix CD:



I can't wait to listen to it!

Then there were 2 games, which look like fun:



and



It was very cool, and I'm sure I'll enjoy everything in there. Thanks again Tobie!

My package is pretty much all ready...I just need to seal the box and mail it. I'll go to the post office during the day on Friday.

Oh, the places it'll go.
As soon as I leave the doctor's office this afternoon I'm headed to the Post Office to send my painstakingly compiled package off to its intended recipient.



I hope she likes it, I had a hard time not keeping some of the things for myself!

Oh, and it won't be as pretty when you get it as I had to stuff the bag into a box that was just a bit smaller than the bag.



The HUGE Package
I was really not expecting to be the receiver of Freddy's gigantic package. I was pleasantly surprised to return from a weekend jaunt to find this waiting for me:


An always handy make-up bag in my favorite color.


Just stuffed full of goodies!
Chocolate and a coolio postcard.
A couple of mixed CD's made for me by the iPod king himself, I'm honored your Majesty
A Pokey keychain, which just might be my favorite part of the whole package as I love horses, even claymation ones.


A moleskin journal as well as pens to write in perfect for my purse.
A lovely Body shop collection of pink eye shadow, passion fruit body butter, scented oil, and moisturizer.

He hit all of my favorite things: writing, make-up, chocolate, horses and pink! All and all a very satisfying package!

PO PO ZOW!!!



I got into the office and went to my second floor office. You can see the first floor reception from up there. I yell down to the receptionist "HEY IS THAT BOX FOR ME?"

She says: "looks like it"

Me: "fucking sweet...wait I don't know anyone in Oregon."

Then I slowly realized that I WAS THE ONE! THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE HIGHLANDER. Oh yea cool stuff in the mail almost in time for my birthday!!!!!!! Damn it feels good to be a gangsta! So what did EC get me? How big is my package? OH IT'S HUGE!



There bottled rain water! Flippin sweet cuz i get thirsty!


Scary cheesy horror films and Salmon Jerkey!!!



There is more. A beer! Dead guy Pale Ale, a cup for the beere witht he same logo and coffee! I told you it was huge. I have more pictures but this blog won't let me post them and I'm a tornado of anger now! Maybe I can post the pictures later.

I'm not a big fan of fish, but for you EC I'm going to try the jerkey while watching the movies and drinking my beer. Then maybe I'll make some coffee with rain water!!!

Now it's my turn to send out my package!!

Clue Three
Front of Postcard:
Text:
Foolish man. You can not turn me into a phantom because you are frightened. You do not dismiss a muse at whim.
If you will not join me -
then I shall come to you.

This is the final postcard. It is titled ...The ceremony of innocence...


Clue Two
Front of Postcard:

Text reads:
Thank you for your exotic postcard. Forgive me if it's a memory lapse on my part, but should I know you?
I can't fathom out how you were aware of my first, broken cup sketch for this card. I don't remember showing it to anyone. Please enlighten me.
Yours

More information: the FIRST clue is a reply/response to the SECOND. the names of these corresponders have been omitted from the text of their postcards.


Clue One
Front of Postcard:
Back of Postcard:
Text reads:
No, you don't know me, not in the way you mean, though I've been watching your art for many years. Having finally established who and where you are, I feel compelled to reveal myself.

The phenomenon that links us has taught me much about you, yet I am ignorant of your history. Please tell me something of your life. It is such a pleasure having images in a tangible form. I really like the kangaroo in the hat, but I wonder whether you should have darkened the sky.

The Mystery Mailing
EvilCow received the first part of her gift; soon she will tell you all about it.
In the meantime, I sent her a clue regarding her next shipment. I'll let her tell you about that too.

As it turns out, the clue is quite befuddling, so I'm leaving you with a second clue. EvilCow's shipment is sitting next to my wine rack waiting to be sent out when the correct answer is guessed. Clue:
