omniscient santa

I love getting packages, even when I'm the one who paid for them.

I have a one-month trial of Amazon Prime, which means that I get free two-day shipping on a lot of stuff, including, to my surprise, a lot of things that ship from someone other than Amazon. I've been ordering lots of really random stuff that normally wouldn't make sense (because why would you pay $5 shipping for a $10 item?), and all that stuff has been showing up at my office. It's as if there's an off-duty, online, all-knowing Santa who just knows that I want a new phone sleeve or a water dispenser for my dog, and he ships it to me one box at a time, so that I have a few minutes of self-funded Christmas every afternoon.
