Why?!? Why Now?!?
Posted on December 22, 2003 by Christine | 4 Comments
Why is it that you always think of the ultimate coolest gift you could get for someone at the last minute – when it’s way too late to make it happen? What is up with that?!? I just had a total flash of inspiration. Unfortunately it would involve a lot of time on my part, making things, having things done at a store and that sort of thing. Gah! It’s way too late now. *sigh* Maybe for the next holiday. Maybe as a New Year’s gift. We should give gifts on New Year’s Day, don’t you think? You know, after everything has been marked down at the stores and the prices are better for the budget anyways?
Damn. I can’t believe I didn’t think of this gift earlier.
On a positive note, with a few minor exceptions that I will pick up tonight, my holiday shopping is DONE. I will even be wrapping my gifts tonight. It’s like a Festivus miracle!

But if I tell – *he* might read my blog and see it! And then he would know. I might be able to pull of a mini-version of it, and if I do I’ll post it on Dec. 26.

Yeah, I do that, too. Just thought of a couple of GOOD ones for a friend, and it’s too late. Grr!
