9:08 AM - Present Wrapping
Current mood: ashamed
Category: Life


Something I am not when it comes to present wrapping is anal. I know, hard to imagine, but true nonetheless. In fact I absolutely hate wrapping presents. Sad but true, I've been known to take them to a local gift store and pay to have them wrapped. This time of year I shop only at places that offer wrapping... I even ask at the hunting and fishing store if they'll wrap for me (and sadly, yes, Cole, your uncle Bart does a much better job than me...).

This year I made Jim help wrap. He's almost as anal as the story below... I'm not... Kidd's big present from me was a fiasco and a half to get wrapped... I thought I had it measured right... turns out I screwed up somewhere along the line (probably didn't help that I was trying to accomplish this year's wrapping on a hotel bed...)... not wanting to waste the paper since it was a rather large amount I had the creative genius to wrap the box on a diagnal... not my brightest moment yet... I don't know who was more frustrated... me from trying to get the damn thing wrapped... or Jim from trying to not laugh at me...
