RAKed! What? No way! That can’t be right. You should do a recount. - They keep coming!
So, I was away on business this past week. At the beginning of the week, my wife told me an LBE arrived. I thought “Oh, that must be the pin I bought from Merlin. That got there fast.” Then the next day my wife said an LBE arrived. And I thought “Huh. Maybe it’s a late shipment in relation to the zap portion of Canadale’s game. That’s nice.” The next day my wife didn’t have any mail delivery report so I figured that was that. But then on Thursday my wife said an LBE arrived. And I thought “Man, that’s odd. Wonder what that one is.” And then yesterday, my wife said she was glad I was coming home because she was tired of dealing with my mail. And an LBE arrived. And it said “RAK” on it. And I thought…
I also thought “No, no, she must be reading it wrong. I’ll see when I get home.” So today I was opening a bunch of envelopes. I was at least right on the first one. It was indeed the pin I purchased from Merlin. (Thanks Merlin!) But then I opened the next one and it was this incredible batch of wonderfulness from @DawnB
Look at all this stuff! A really awesome case with a magnetic clasp that is going to be perfect for carrying sun and/or reading glasses in. And this truly beautiful keychain. AND an awesome fox Tsum Tsum figurine (that my wife has already claimed). All of that would have been way more generous than enough but there was more! The entire freaking set of Monsters University HMs! All of them! The whole set! Way beyond generous! Thank you!
The next one I opened was from @Shelterkat
Look at that card! It’s so appropriate and thoughtful. I love it! And the pin! The Simba LE Window? Are you kidding me?! Thank you so much! Inside the card it says something about thanking me for being a great member. Uhm…I think you’ve got it very much backwards.
And last, but in no sense of the word whatsoever, least, was a package bursting at the seams from @krand1276
A Peter Pan park pack!! Plenty right there. But also older and hard to get Cinderella and NBC pins!! Plus super fun mystery packs containing a Madame Mim keychain and Edna Mode (whom we absolutely love) Lego figurine! And, to top it all off, a treat for Cocoa! Which she was very happy to check out.
And even happier after sampling one.
And again, these odd words on the card like “thanks for being awesome”. Totally have it backwards!!
Really, THANK YOU so much to everyone! I can’t imagine how or why I was nominated for a RAK, let alone deemed worthy of one. There are so many people in this community far more deserving than me. But I do very much appreciate it and am truly touched by it. I am also shocked, surprised, elated, confused, overjoyed, humbled, happy, bashful, and, yes, a whee bit doc.
Thank you all!
On a somewhat related note, I have decided I don’t like DPF and will never post again.
