Title: Ninja Elves!!!
Post by: danooli on December 25, 2011, 01:30:12 PM

My husband, bless his heart, doesn't listen to any of the EA podcasts, but he patiently listens to me ramble about my favorite episodes.  I used to think he didn't really pay close attention, but I was proven wrong this morning  ;D

You may recall last years PodCastle episode for Christmas by Heather Shaw and Tim Pratt, "The Christmas Mummy".  Well, I truly love that tale and gushed about it for weeks afterward and again for a bit starting this past November.  So when I woke up this morning and walked past the Christmas Tree and saw a present that wasn't there when I went bed last night, I investigated.  I saw a sign placed on the nicely wrapped box with a picture of three diminutive and black-clad people with the words "Special Delivery for Danielle" in bold, I squealed!  I was visited by Ninja Elves!!!

They were very good to me (I must have been especially good this year) and I hope they came to your homes as well!

Oh, that's wonderful! You have a very good man there, good lady!

And... I played "The Christmas Mummy" to my wife last year whilst cooking. Kinda sneaked it in, there. She loved it!

'Christmas Mummy' gave me the excuse to use the word 'ninjatastic' in my discussion thread announcement.

This pleased me greatly.
