So, I had to jump online and just post a quick one. We celebrated Christmas with our friends today.

I have a lot of work to do. I ought to work on it. But I'm over it, I'm tired, and I want to call it a day. Except that I need to stay for at least another hour because I came in a bit late. Meh.

I admit it. I think it's very difficult to not regift, only because I receive a lot of very nice gifts (usually from people who don't know me well) that aren't necessarily my taste and that I know someone else would like to have. ... <p style="clear:both;"> <a href="http://everythingeileen.vox.com/library/post/the-art-of-the-regift.html?_c=feed-rss#comments">Read and post comments</a> | <a href="http://www.vox.com/share/6a00c2251ea54c604a00e398ca27a70003?_c=feed-rss">Send to a friend</a> </p> christmas christmas presents regifting
