ho ho ho

i have avoided it for as long as is humanly possible. ok that is a lie as usually i will be running around like the rest of the headless masses the day before but this year it will be different. i have promised myself every year whilst doing the chicken dance that this will be the last year, i wont subject myself to inefficiency and lack of planning again!
i will get things done earlier this year. i have been chanting this mantra to maintain sanity as the day that i must exchange gifts with everyone draws closer.... so instead of putting it of any longer that i inevitably wind up the day before crying murder to myself i am going to face the masses today and attempt to be the perfect santa and find a gift for everyone in hopefully what is to be a reasonably painless day in the war zones that are our malls this time of year.
