This of course made me FREAK out in the middle of IHOP and scare everyone around me.

This morning, one of my favorite people in the world who I met in this group a few years ago and I exchanged gifts. (I saw their introduction and was like "OH MY GOD I NEED TO BE THEIR FRIEND IMMEDIATELY". But I am awkward and shy so I sent them a book and tried to weeks to work up the nerve to message them. And once I did, we pretty much have not stopped talking since. Classic love story)


Thank you both so much <3 there is a reason I brag about this gift exchange to everyone and it is this. Just so many books given and so much niceness.

Edited to add: clearly I was too excited to say it, but iam is one of my favorite people and who I meant. Sorry iam!
