Oh For the Love of Shopping and Wrapping!

When it all comes down to it... Christmas is full of joy and love. Showing your friends and family that you care for them through your heart warming thoughts and gifts ( oof course). But even though the true meaning of Christmas is known by all ( and if you don't then it can easily be found), it is so fun to be able to spend time getting gifts for others... With Someone else's money! Muah hahaha.

To the poor soul (which I will not name names) that allowed me to tag along in their adventure in getting Christmas presents. And I am so glad that I got to help someone else buy gifts without spending more then $5... that was for the fast food energy boost.


Started with an msn conversation about how the Christmas shopping still had to be done. Then that led to making a list and checking it twice... before we hit the chaos. Scrabbling in and out through all the people was like trying to jam a puzzle piece into the wrong spot. Then there was the running into people that you know and Having to say "hi". There is no possible way of getting out of something like that, even if there is Major shopping to be done.

Heading from this shop to the next we soon realized that most of the shopping was over in a flash. (How sad that was). That there was no more room for the odd picture frame and how that had to be picked up on a later date.

So with the end of the shopping portion of today's show, we decided that a good Pick-me-Up would be necessary to celebrate the successes of the day. So McDonald's it was. With our gifts in the back seat and the McDonalds in the cup holders and at hand. We headed home... well not to my home but his.

There we delighted in our findings and eating our banquetting dinner, while enjoying the interactive game of Rockband and Guitar Hero. With very little success and way too much effort my brain fried and it was on to the next great thing. A play, midget women aka "Little Women." What a lovely choice for the evenings final activity.

Then back for some fancy christmas wrapping of flowers, guitars and beer bottles ( don't ask) while enjoying seeing the cute baby pictures of the family and conversing in more Rock Band.

So to this annoymous person, thank you for the awesome day and I would love to know how everything turns out!

I can Truely say that when shopping with a male counterpart, there is no room for the odd store that did not have anything you were looking for. Short and sweet, get in get out. Like the In and Out Burger Stores down in the United States.
