Santa came!! SANTA CAME!!! And all the way from Canada!

image

Since my secret santa was the amazing, adorable, all-around-super video-maker Jens, I figured I should make a video too. Please ignore my general just-home-from work unkemptness. And my voice. Maybe you should just watch it on mute.

  • This is so odd to me. I live in freakin' CT but these are the SECOND time I've seen these gloves within the past week!

  • What did it say on the back of the shirt?  I couldn't read it.

    I love the Munchie cameo.

  • What did the shirt say? It was backwards!

    You win this time, Jens!

    Why, it says "Oooh yeah, show me that ass!" of course, HT.

  • Munchie's ferocious growling scared me. :)

    Love the mittens! 

  • I love it!  I smiled!  I laughed!  I smiled more!  I laughed harder!  What a roller coaster.  Some follow up notes: 1) love your hair like that; 2) I miss you.

  • Munchie is a cutie! You are not from Boston originally right? You sound so normal, I was wondering where the accent was. I wonder how bad mine is to an outsider. 
  • I miss you too, Christin. I think 2011 ruined me because I had two Christin weekends and now I need more.

    I am not, Kamikaze! I grew up in NJ, then lived in CT awhile. I only moved here in 2007. So no accents for me!

  • I'm jealous of your mittens and Canadian treats.  DO NOT EAT THE TOY INSIDE.

  • Bravo Jens!!

    My favorite part was when you said "and they have Canada on them!"

  • So are there no more Secret Santa gifts to be received?  That's sad.

  • YAAAYYY!!!!!

     Ok, ok, OK.

    I have only watched the first 15 seconds of your video, and I had to pause to tell you that I totally recycled the box November sent my stuff to me in - because the box I had for your originally didn't end up fitting all of the loot. So, no credit to me for the box- all credit to November!

    AND, also, I was so angry because I actually burned you the wrong playlist. That one was still pretty good, and still ended with the BEST SONG EVER, but it's missing several songs I love. In particular "Everybody Talks" by Neon Trees. Go listen to it on YouTube right now and tell me how much you love it and wish it was on your playlist.

    K, I'm going to watch the rest of the video. (You're so adorable!)

  • I laughed hard at the shirt.

    I just picked mine up at the post office. The mail service here misplaced it. I'll take pics tomorrow!
  • Ok, I'm done. You are a good video maker.

    I hope you like the nail polish. I have the same Essie one, and I love putting it on my toes. And then when I was looking for another one, I thought that Zoya one was a neat color - but mostly it was named "Elise", and that name makes me think of the board, so I had to get it for you. 

    Btw, I made a video of me explaining everything I got for you, and then something weirdo happened before I was uploading to YouTube and the file got corrupted and was ruined. :(

    The story behind Rudy! You might think it's weird, he's a hammidown, from me to you. Heith gave him to me the first year we were dating long distance when I was living in my college dorm. Maybe it's because he's just the right size and squishiness, but I ended up always having him with me in scary and crappy situations, including at the dentist to have my wisdom teeth removed, at the hospital with me when my little sister was in there (don't worry, he stayed in my bag), and a variety of other situations. I know you haven't had the easiest year, and so I thought he could be handy for you to have around in any situations you run into that are crappy or scary. He's just the right size to squish in your hands when your nervous or worrying, and his beak is good for smooching.

    (I'm slightly concerned that you will be grossed out by him. If so, sorry. I meant well.)

  • Jens! I'm not grossed out! I'm crying! That's, like, the sweetest thing I've ever heard.

  • Oh, Moo.  I love you!  I squealed with delight when Munchie came jumping up for her toy, too.

    ETA:  I want to know what the best f'ing song ever made is!!

    Jens, you have a heart of GOLD.  I wish I couldl squish you and slur some words at you right. meow.

  • She LOVES the toy, btw. She's dragged it around and chewed on it several times, when she's not playing tug of war with it.

  • Yay! I'm glad you like Rudy. <3 I'm not gonna lie, it was a little hard to say goodbye. WORTH IT.

    And I'm glad Munchie likes her toy! I was worried it would be too big for her little mouth- but the only smaller things I could find at the store I was at were rawhide, and I didn't know if she should have that.

    For those of you who couldn't read, on the cd is says "Moo's mix" and then on the bottom "note: Does not include "smell yo dicck"

    And the playlist I thought I had burned still DID include "Smell yo dicck",  heh. Right before the best song ever, which is "You Make My Dreams Come True" by Hall and Oates. I'm not being ironic, I really think that.

    I love secret santa!

     

  • Aw, Jens, that's so sweet. I have not watched the video yet, but I need those mittens. I love them a lot.

  • Oh Jens, just when I was starting to think it was impossible for you to get any cuter- you go and prove me wrong.
