Hmm… not sure of the worst gift I’ve ever received, but the most awkward had to be the “Learn to Belly Dance” kit from my mother-in-law. I still haven’t used it. *L* And on the flip side, I think the worst I ever gave anyone was for my apartment-dwelling, non-tree-setting-up, bird-loving aunt: an ornament decorated with (what I assumed were artificial) owl feathers. Ehh… oops? *L*

Ahahahaha I love this. I don’t have kids, but if I did, I would be a massive train wreck. I don’t think my boyfriend can organise more than me. Apparently it’s already like herding cats (I’m a *****free spirit***** lmao XD)

Xmas shopping I accomplish with the power of eBay. Screw going into sweaty malls and being around people, just wait a bit for the post to arrive. Did my Christmas shop in one night *boom*

Reblogged this on Christine Hendler's Blog and commented: I read this while getting a mani/pedi and started laughing so hard, the whole shop looked at me, slightly distressed?! I just loved how true, human and funny this was?! I was all prepared to blog my own pre-Christmas thoughts...but this wonderful blog HAD to come first??

First, I love the battle-ax. (I’d like one for Christmas.)

The list is great, and I am also a mix of normal and slacker. I always plan to better, but life just gets in the way.

Worst gift I ever got was a turquoise, fake-fur trimmed hat. I looked like a fashion-challenged Cossack . In fact, when I saw it I laughed hysterically believing it was a gag gift. When I looked at the gleam in my friend’s eyes I realized it wasn’t a gag gift and she thought it was the perfect gift for me. But some lucky thrift shop shopper probably has it now.

I always have the grandiose idea that this year, I will get everything done early, the house will be spotless and the holiday will be perfect and magical and the family get together will not be utter chaos. The idea always falls short, but I am determined to get as close as I can before I end up on the roof with the rum and rum balls. It’s driving me nuts though. Every year they put the Christmas stuff up earlier and it doesn’t make me buy more. It just makes me feel pressured. Last year it was the day after Halloween. This year when I was Halloween shopping a few weeks before Halloween I might add, I was looking at Christmas Trees and decorations! That’s insane. The seasons are rushed enough! Okay, now i have to go have a zen moment and remind myself there is still plenty of time to get things done!
