I just got home and found two packages on my porch - one was heavy! I had no idea calendars could be so heavy.

Inside the boxes I found the most thoughtful gifts! A song lyric wall calendar I am absolutely in love with for my home office (the prints are so nice, they may find themselves framed and displayed at a later time...), a day calendar so I can help my friends at trivia nights and a bonus surprise of this awesome dates/anniversaries/events compendium! I started by looking up my birthday and then today's date...I know it's supposed to be for next year, but I couldn't wait!

I can't thank my Santa enough...I love all these presents! I also feel a little guilty - the nice note inside said the extra gift is because I was shafted in a previous exchange. The problem is, I wasn't. This is only my second round of exchanges - I'm doing this and postcards now, and I did Simpsons before (see my awesome gift here: https://www.redditgifts.com/gallery/gift/feeling-so-lucky---awesome-gifts/ and I know, I know...first name. I didn't know the rule then, I was a newbie. And I can't figure out how to edit it now. Mods, please feel free to edit out the first name). So I don't know why my santa was told that. Maybe the algorithm needs to be tweaked a little?

I do however totally understand why my santa gets matched with people who were shafted. These gifts are thoughtful, pulled straight from my likes/interests and are cool things I didn't know existed, so I would never have bought them for myself. /u/INTPLibrarian should be the one spoiling shafted redditors...so I feel a little that I benefited and someone who was truly shafted before may not have gotten as nice of a gift as I did.

In any event, thank you so much for my wonderful presents! I love them all and they will get a lot of use over the next year. Thank you!!
