Second visit from Secret Santa

So on Day Two I came to my desk and found this from my Secret Santa:

And inside were these items:


So here comes the fun part, trying to decipher who my Secret Santa is. From Day One's gift, I have determined my Secret Santa is female. Let's face it, ornament buying is pretty much a lady's game. I equate the enjoyment level of buying ornaments to taking my car in for an oil change, so my Secret Santa is a LOT more femmy and high classy than me.

But wait, is my Secret Santa trying to throw me off with Day Two? These items could easily be purchased on a pit stop at the 7-11 on the way to a party while picking up a 6-pack of Zima. Or hastily purchased that morning at the gas station--crap! I've got to do Frances's Secret Santa stuff again! ummm...I'll get these Vitamin C thingies, some gum--yeesh is there any cheaper gum? And some Slim Jims for myself... Not so femmy and high classy, now is it?

Or is my Secret Santa trying to tell me something? When I told other folks at work what I received from my Secret Santa, the common reply was, hmm, interesting...did you put that stuff on your wish list? And unfortunately, my reply would be, uh, no. And the tacit response was of course, that maybe my Secret Santa is telling me to lay off the strong coffee and garlic hummus and quit my annual case of Mucky Lung Fever.

Perhaps the 3rd visit from my SS will be more enlightening...

I love how you can see your busy work desk.

Yeah I was going to say the same thing. Bold to confess that is your desk. ;)

I think it is a very thoughtful Santa. To avoid a cold is divine.

i think your ss is a guy. that ornament isn't super fancy or girly, and using usps stickers as tape? only a guy would be lazy enough to do that. the office collage is 50/50 tho, i'm rabid enough about dunder mifflin that i'd do that, but it seems more like a guy did that for some reason...

ok i put $5 on a dude. if i lose i give myself $5.
