Thanks, Pippi!!
As I was leaving for work this morning, I happened to notice a box in my backyard. I was confused because the 2 things I had ordered online were shipped yesterday - so it couldn't be those. And the address was handwritten. So what was it?
Turned out to be an "odds & ends" packet from Pippi (btw: I sing "I am Pippi Longstockings", to a tune done by my friend Sean, EVERY time I see/think/write Pippi. See... did it again).
FYI: Pippi is Jenn, a friend of mine who currently lives in Sweden with her boyfriend - who I think she said she met in Spain (but I could be wrong). With any luck, she'll get her profile up soon and will start blogging about her life and many interesting adventures - especially her travels.
There was an envelope of cool postcards... "old town" Stolkholm, the Centralbadet spa (I'd love to go. I'll have to scan the card & add it later), the Absolut Ice Hotel (wanted to go ever since I first heard of it), and a "suggestive" postcard which says "wise me up" on the front and has a paragraph on the back which she translated as:
"My crotch-nu is a site for you and your crotch; how your vagina looks and why, whatever happens {därnere} and why it sometimes doesn't function as you want."
my thoughts exactly!
Though a better question (in swede mixed with dutch) might be: Varför din {lul} inte funkar som jag vill?!?
Mental note: Must remember the phrase "crotch-nu".
There are also some holiday socks, a wrapped present that I decided to hold off on opening, and an edible candy "posing pouch". This cracked me up because I've been looking at all the new candy underwear/garters/belts and thinking of getting one (or several, as holiday gifts for the rest of my S Factor class).
Even though posing pouches are intended for guys, this looks like it would work perfectly for women too. I'd wear it myself but it would never fit. Plus I imagine rapidly finding myself dealing with lots of disolved candies - which could be fun but, then again, not so much.
Sooooo.... do I hold on to the pouch till I get thinner (aka: forever) or try to talk C into wearing it, for me? More importantly, how would I talk myself into not diving onto C before he got this on?!?
OR.... do I regift it (with love and hopes of seeing it) to Knicky (way cute, way too young for me to think about any further than that), fail at trying to convince him to pose for me and/or wear it to Miss Kitty's, and wait to hear how he and Lisa enjoyed it in priate?
OR do I offer it to Lisa to wear to Miss Kittys, knowing there's a 60/40 chance she would do so, and then play bodyguard while that adventure actually happens?!?
So few candy undies, so may interesting possibilities!!

Hejsan Laura!
Glad to know that you have received your "package"....now to get a "package" to fit in your pouch...candy pouch that is....oh, this is bad on so many levels.
I had sent it with the intentions of C wearing it for you..but hey, whatever! I have faith in your creativity.
So, you have seen them already!? DAAAAANG girl! Is there anything I can surprise you with? I have been searching and searching for a gift for you...and then I finally find something and you have seen them already. Hmph.
I have had a great time showing them to people and declaring how happy I was to finally hit upon a great gift for you. Many have laughed, some just shake their heads, and some have wanted to try them (I didn't think you'd mind if a few candies had been licked?! LOL!). It was a fun way to give people an idea of what my fabulous friend is like!
Did you see the wrapping of the undies? Weird right? That was a poster from a show in Stockholm. Did you see what she was holding in the glass jar?!
Oh, btw, there was maple syrup and Icelandic schnapps in the gift pack...but those were needed in an emergency situation. Sorry honey. Your gift pack was lame, especially compared to what you sent me!! I should have sent you more candy undies!! I'll just have to send something else later.
Also looked for kitty gifts, but the dog isle of the shop had taken over. So friggin' many dog clothes!!
Anyway, Merry Christmas my joyous friend.
