Ok, I got my second exchange pressie today too but I don't know how its from. Tell me who you are walrus theres no card!! I got the most beautiful parasol, honestly, the picture does not do it justice. I got a really cuty Betty Boop handbag, a pin up poster which I'm also getting framed to put in my kitchen, and a book with pin up images in it which I love as its a book I've never even heard of before! Thankyou walrus whoever you are!!

Hey polekitten--
that present was from me. I was going to attach a card but forgot...
it got kind of hectic trying to figure out how to send that stuff without
squishing the parasol.
I hope the book wasn't wrecked by being squished in the tube.
I like that book because I figure you can get color copies and make your
own t-shirts, posters, wrapping paper, wall pictures, et. al.
also-- if you're just lazy you can tear out the photos and frame them
since there's no text and the pictures are one sided.
plus it's always fun to get ideas for props and clothes from the old
pin up pics.
I hope you like the purse. I know subjective tastes like different purses,
but I wanted you to get a "big" gift and you did say anything betty boop.
and then I just saw the parasol in a store and thought it'd be a really
cool prop. I actually used to have a really pretty japanese parasol
that I hung in the uppermost corner of a room. That might be an idea
if you don't want to use it as a prop, especially if you can hang a light bulb behind it.
glad you liked it.

also--
I had new moon who never posted her address (well, at least in the address part. I was on the run when I told her to take the address out of the publicly viewable section so I didn't jot it down.)
so-- either I need her address, or I can just email her a gift card.
new moon? I'd like to be a good bucket, but you're making this hard.

So I haven't been checking SW for a couple of weeks now and just discovered Lola Rose isn't even a member anymore so who if anyone will be handling flakers for this exchange?

I think her leaving was a spur of the moment thing, I don't think she assigned a new head bucket/walrus.

I FINALLY went to the post office today (It's kind of a long bike ride, so I only do it once a week) and mah bukkit had arrived! It was so amazing, and either my walrus is clairvoyant or she really spent a lot of time stalking me, because everything was EXACTLY my taste!
Two books! (Thank you so much! I needed new reading material and I never buy books for myself anymore, cause I'm too poor.) And I am not even kidding you, these are both books I picked up at the bookstore within the last couple of months of then didn't buy, because...well, see above.
Choke, by Chuck Palahniuk, who wrote Fight Club.
And Stiff, about what happens to bodies after death.
Both unusual picks, but I love them. You know me really well!
Also, two bottles of hot sauces...my favorite is the peach & vidalia onion one. I am kinda scared of the other one...but C. loves it and I know I will break down and try it eventually.
Also, a scrubbie, just in case *ahem* someone around here decides to do the dishes.
Thanks to my wonderful walrus ~~xoxoxo PRETTY PENNY xoxoxo~~
You made my whole day, Penny. I think you and I have a lot of the same tastes...I'm only bummed that you're in Florida so we can't hang out. :'(

Yeay! Fancygirl I love you. I really really love the pin up book. I was tempted to rip out the pics to frame but its so nice I can't, I have so many pics like this I use for inspiration I thought I had them all but I've never seen this one! I'm gonna get some images scanned tho to put them on the wall.
I love the parsol and I was thinking about using it as a lampshade. It would be great as a prop but I'm oo scared to damage it. My props always eventually get wrecked as they get so much use and they get bashed around backstage or in transit. I wanna keep it nice forever! Its such an original present, I can't believe you thought to give me it.
Thanks again hon, your my bucket hero, xxx

hooray! i kept thinking "omg she thinks im crazy. i sent her a book about dead bodies. fuckittyfuckfuck...." lol and i -did- read a bunch of your post history. ;)
and the "don't be a chicken shit" hot sauce REALLY isn't that bad. it's a medium. i like it because its hot without being "just hot" (meaning it has depth of flavor) and it gives a nice kick to food without overwhelming it.
:D
if you're ever in florida, you have a place to crash. no dead bodies. i promises. :P

^ hey hun..if you wanna be unsearchable...you probably shouldn't sign your posts with your old name...cause if someone searches for that name they will come across this post, and then they'll know who you are. So deleteing you account will have been for nothing.
;)

06-05-2008, 12:48 AM
uh. i only made this account to ask to delete my whole profile since it didnt happen right....and to say i got a flake...im not going to actually use this account later on
bananas
06-05-2008, 08:25 PM
so, any chance of finding out who my flake was? im pretty pissed they flaked on something small and easy like a donation to oxfam...it sorta shows what a shitty person they are even more. please out them for me someone

i think the only person who could tell you is lola, and she isn't here anymore...

06-06-2008, 12:39 PM
Lola flaked on me on handmade craft exchange, I wouldn't put it past her at this point. That was really upsetting to me, as I put a lot of time and thought into her piece. She could have at least written to me and explained what happened and told me she wasn't sending anything. Luckily I had a cool walrus so I'm not completely turned off by these things.

And I sent Lola a bunch of awesome gifts and didn't even get a thank you. It really takes the joy out of giving when the recipient is too bratty to acknowledge the gifts.:'(

06-06-2008, 01:48 PM
^I'm really surprised by this actually, I thought she would have at least said thankyou.
bananas
06-06-2008, 06:30 PM
what a fucking hoe. thats so not cool.
so she bailed on heaps of people? least i dont feel quite so bad then.... im not the only one.
too bad we didnt find out earlier she lacked integrity... :(
(btw, im glad you liked your necklace pretty_penny, i was stressing so hard over what to get you haha)

It's only the sixth, so maybe she didn't flake and is just sending you something late? I pmed my buckkit because I waited til after the first and therefore her address was deleted, so she won't get hers til the 10th.....Maybe something similar happened? I didn't get my pressie yet either but my person also messaged me and said it would be late, so I'm not worried at all!!

I tried to get ahold of Lola for her addy, because I wanted to send her her bukkit, but she hasn' responded. Maybe on purpose/ I'm tempted to just say fuck it, since she bailed on people, but I have a streak of guilt.
I wonder if my lolrus had any more trouble sending mah bukkit? I've never received any notice of attempted delivery. :-\
Polekitten
06-07-2008, 02:17 AM
I think we should wait another week or so before calling flake, its already been said that some people posted late, everyones lovely bukits might still be on their way!

a furminator is a pet grooming tool that works WONDERS on breeds of animals that shed.

See my "Yay and Boo (Got A Gift!)" thread I created - the fans and the body scrub made it thru Australian Quarantine. The herbal tea and dried catnip didn't (thus it will be getting destroyed).
Heads up to those sending things internationally -- please make sure you are aware of what you are allowed to send via international mail. Refer to www.aqis.gov.au for further information.
THANK YOU! *mwah*
You didn't have to do it yet you did. I'm just so so happy! Man, this has restored me. The apology was the first step. Now this.. so yes.. I finally got to experience what it was like to be on the end of one! YAY!!!!
If we have any more I'm going to re-enter again :)

I was me! I'm so happy you liked it...I had no idea customs was so strict, but at least you got the fans and the body scrub. (It IS totally edible, actually. Everything in it is food, no weird chemicals.)
Yay!

no worries. my car is in the shop, one of my
walruses never gave me her addy and now I
don't have her email, and the only net access
I have is via phone-- so I'm not worried about
getting my gift right this second.
sassysummer
06-12-2008, 12:03 AM
One size never fits me. I have huge hooters.
I'll try it again later with a camera :-)
Oh, and the tea is yummy, I had it yesterday with no milk or sugar and it was nice, be good with a squirt of lemon.
The balloons will have to wait, Vancouver is, well, Vancouver. So. Much. Rain. Boo.
damn those big beautiful boobies! :D i still would like to see them squeezed in the top though }:D *evil grin* hehehe
i know nothing about tea, so i grabbed what i thought might be good! haha i wanted to go to saturday market here and get some local tea, but i wasn't sure if i could ship it over the border or not.
rain, ah, yes. i live in the "other" vancouver, the washington variety, it's been SOOO cold and wet lately! yuck!

So, uhh, Mystery Bukkit Person of mine.
It's been rather a long time since you told me you posted priority and I have not received said bukkit. I'm a bit worried that it might've been held up at customs or there may have been problems delivering it or something.
Is there a tracking number or something for it so we can try to find out where it's gone?
Polekitten
06-16-2008, 12:00 AM
Hmm, my bukit should have recieved by now...
Rhiannon
06-16-2008, 06:44 AM
Same, PK. But mine hasn't been signed on to SW since the 1st I think. :(
I hope she hops on soon and lets me know it arrived. The shipping alone was the cost of the suggested minimum value of the presents. I spent twice that, and then the $30 for shipping.
So Bukkit, whether you liked it all or hated it, just let me know it got there.

Omigawd I am so so sooooooo sorry this is so late but I just got home to my apartment. I went to the office to check for packages and I could already see the tinsel poking out!! Omg I LOVE IT ALL! I'm wearing the happy bunny pajama bottoms right now and I love the flowers and the my little ponys and the walrus and the bucket and the keychains and the chocolates and the picture frame and the pens and the notecards and silly string and the water jug and the journal and the pink case and the flamingo and the cell phone holder! I LOVE IT ALL and I apologize for being out of town for so long! Thank you thank you thank you! I am smiling so hard right now because you have made me so happy! Spank you!

LOL Wooohoo! I'm so glad you like everything! I was a little worried that you wouldn't like the Happy Bunny Jammies, or you'd take offense to them--I just couldn't resist getting them because I love Happy Bunny.. I plan on going back and getting me a set or two (they have a ton of different ones) LOL
Yay!

I got it! I got it!!
OMG, Pole Kitten seriously went to town and got me fucking AWESOME gifts. Like, seriously, one of them esp. was so cool I almost busted out crying!
I had the gifts sent to my mom's PO box because well....I live in an "urban" area and stuff sometimes disappears of my porch...So my mom called to say it came in and I was like, "Okay, cool...Open it!" she was like "I don't want to open the stuff, there's so much stuff in here and it's wrapped all pretty..."
So Monday I went to pick it up and OMG...she was not kidding! The first thing I got was the card, so I know it was pole kitten who sent me practically a million adorable purple wrapped pressies!! I was like, "OH MY G-D" There was also candy floating throughout the pressies, including my FAVORITE cadbury chocolates!! The first big pressie that I opened, I almost passed out. It was a pink collar for my dog who is HUGE! and it had her name Leila spelled on it in diamond thingies! This was so BOMB because I have often posted on here that people think my dog looks mean/scary and always think she's a boy, but because she has a 22 inch neck it's REALLY hard to find her a collar that fits!! This fits PERFECT!!
Then she sent me an I Love Pitbulls tee shirt, hehehe, this AWESOME necklace of a naked trucker mudflap girl I wanted....did I say TONS of candy nom nom nom, a bunch of LUSH!!!! ...some glittery sparkles I can't wait to wear, some bad assed pink candles! Oh my gosh!! Everything is just so amazing, you really went above and beyond PK and I appreciate it so much and so does Leila! I just took her to the park tonite to watch fireworks and people KNEW she was a girl for the first time EVER!!!
So, I did the appropriate stripperweb thing and took boobie and ass pictures with some of my pressies.....
VegasPrincess
