View Full Version : Secret Bunnies!!! gift exchange

don't have much in the way of nicknames-- Fancygirl or fancy is just fine.
favorite color: blue, pink, orange, dark red (not orangy or brick red), silver
favorite man in the whole world: Gerard Butler (so TOO, if you get me, then I'm sure you can play God and arrange a dinner with him for me *drools!*)
favorite music: I like jazzy stuff-- norah jones, regina spektor, michael buble, b.b. king and any of his contemporaries. I really need to branch out though. the only music I don't like is heavy metal and techno (unless it's instrumental techno like the stuff on the original matrix soundtrack)
I'm trying to push myself to cook more, thus the cast iron skillets (please no other types of pans... I've been reading up on bad modern pans since I'm into alternative health.) Any other type of "cooking stuff" you think might be cool would be awesome-- even if you just make me a recipe notebook or box.
I'm crap with makeup and hair-- so any type of the makeup or hair care products that aren't sold in Longs or Albertson's would be good. No shampoo though-- I'm very finicky with the type of shampoo I get.
I like shiny glittery stuff.
I'm a cat person, and a dog person. Actually pretty much any type of animal is cool, except I'm not huge into reptiles (unless it's something witty that involved an apple.)
I like whimsical, witty, ironic, sassy type stuff.
favorite food-- erm....iced tea. I know that's not a food. If someone can find me a lebanese sweet tea mix that'd be awesome. Other than that, I love whole foods for everything I eat but nothing that'd really be shippable.
I like to travel and I like things that remind me of travelling-- pictures of the desert, the mountains, the ocean, et. al.

Ok, my bunny sent me a question but I replied without sending the links.:-\ Sorry.
I've put some links in my wishlist of stuff that is the same sort of style that I like. I'd sorta rather that I got a surprise tho, (I love surprises!!) so if you don't mind, would you just take inspiration from the links??
Also, not sure if the links even worked so if not the drop me another line and ill sort it out.

For the 437th time :P your address goes in the ADDRESS section of your Elfster profile, not in the question/answer section. This way only the person who drew your name can see the address.
Everyone can see your questions/answers.
Lola Rose
03-02-2008, 06:30 PM
B, I think you like the huge text a *little* too much :P
Bridgette
03-02-2008, 06:48 PM
^Well, yenno, when it's been said several times before (and we're saying it in a 20+ page thread), I feel the need to make sure it finally (hopefully) gets noticed ;D
Lola Rose
03-02-2008, 07:07 PM
now the excuse is that the thread is too long to read it all :P
Lysondra
03-02-2008, 07:35 PM

...*grin*... okay so it's not you...
I already have my guesses on who it is...:thinking:
You don't get sarcasm like that without knowing me pretty well.

Yeah but the general questions point to it being my bunny considering they threatened me with plum-receiving. Hahaha. But then it could be like 4 different people all pretending to be my bunny. OMG we should totally throw people off the track and do that randomly to others..

ARGH I just noticed the person I thought it was isn't even IN the exchange. Go me. :pickle:

did you sign up multiple times?
it would be so funny if someone who signed up a lot of times ended up getting themselves.
Lysondra
03-02-2008, 07:46 PM
Oh fuck, you're right, my Secret Bunny is TOTALLY myself. Ugh, I should've guess what was up when that bitch kept replying with things I'd say.

lol, I didn't mean that!
I wonder if one of the fancygirls got herself, there's like 10 of them.
fancygirl
03-02-2008, 08:42 PM
correction: 6
and I only got myself once--
which means that if twisterinAZ wants to join in, then there's an in for her.
none too subtle (for you or for me) there's only one person who signed up more than once, and as I said before me loves gifts!

yeah... wait, are these the same person? *i'm confuzzled* and if so, doesn't that mean that like 5 people are getting the same person gifts??
fancygirl
03-02-2008, 09:23 PM
okay--
2. I'm planning on signing up 3 times so that I have 3 people and 3 people have me. I just like this sort of thing and I have the income to do it.
If anyone has a problem with this, speak now or hold your peace. I figure the only issue would be if I'd flake, but the truth is-- this stuff is probably going to be mailed out on the 3rd (I'm travelling for the next couple of weeks so whoever gets theirs early is just going to have to put the box in their closet til April 1st.) However-- at least this would make it obvious very quickly that I'm not a flake :D
this was on page 13, and I followed it up on page 14.
If you didn't speak up, oh well.
I actually signed up six times because I love shopping for other people--
so yes, excluding the one time I picked myself-- five people have me, and I have five people.

This is really very thoughtful and generous of you. :)
What I'm trying to figure out is when your doppelgangers actually appeared. I've been following everybody's wish lists and Q&As pretty regularly and POOF! suddenly you have multiplied like, well, rabbits.
This must have happened all at once on Saturday. Right? Otherwise, I can't imagine how I missed it.

Wow, people totally ran with my suggestion to do a survey! Awesome.
I'll fill it out one of these days. Probably tomorrow since one of my classes got canceled.
BTW, anyone think of any other good questions?
Lysondra
03-03-2008, 01:10 AM
ARGH! My Egg sucks! Why? Because being her bunny is too easy! I keep looking for this SPECIFIC stall at the mall and and up spending $80-100 at other shops finding the most awesome shit she HAS to have.... I've done this TWICE and still can't find the goddamn shop. If I go back again, my egg is just going to have a giant box filled with the most random crap and no main gift that I've been trying to fucking get.
Lysondra
03-03-2008, 01:12 AM
Also, going to shops and saying 'What's the coolest stuff you have that nobody would buy for themselves but everyone wants?' is the best way to find really fucking neat stuff.

Yep, names were drawn on Saturday.
