It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit. --Harry S Truman
I'm only writing this because of the inherent humour.
I'm spending Christmas in Florida with my Dad & Stepmom, my brother, and P and Z.
That, in and of itself, is funny enough.
But wait-- it gets better.
Since I have performances the next two weekends, I have no time to actually go anywhere and shop, so I'm doing everything on Amazon.
Amazon orders need to go in today to get free shipping.
I have zero time-- zero time-- but I found stuff for everybody. Hooray! :D Several things for everybody, even!
And I'm looking at this stuff, filling out the gift cards ($3.50 wrapping per gift is both a total ripoff and a total godsend), and I remember that family doesn't really know P & Z, and P & Z don't really know family.
And they've all asked me to buy gifts for each other on their behalf.
D'oh!
So I go through and change half of the "Love, [Ldy]" tags to "Love, X," "Love, Y," "Love, Z," "Love, $," "Love, X & Y," "Love, Z & $," etc.
And it dawns on me: I am buying everything for everybody.

If I get coal in my stocking, dammit, I'll draw. ;)
I hope you are all well and happy and enjoying all life has to offer you. :)
I am going to get some much deserved sleep. Tomorrow promises to be operose.
