Happy December(ween)

Interesting stuff has happened over the last few days...

And this year is going to be known as, "the year that Acey got really creative with the To/From tags."

Why? Because my mom asked me if I would wrap presents, since she doesn't like doing it, and I thought she was offering to pay me. Apparently she wasn't, but wasn't unwilling to pay me anyway (though she did call me a mercenary). So, I've been wrapping all the presents that are for the boys and my parents, for a Psychonauts t-shirt. The shirt is amazing, by the way. I'm wearing it right now.

BUT, since I've been writing all the gift tags...after a while, writing things like "To: Josh, From: Mom & Dad" gets dreadfully boring. My solution? Things like:

To: Josh
From: SANTA
and his little helpers, yeah?

And,

To: Tim
From: yo momma
and pops

My dad has also received a gift from BABY Jesus (notice how the word "baby" was randomly written in all capitals) and SANTA! (I actually wrote the exclamation point, too)

Really, I don't think the humor is really in what I'm writing, but the varying sizes in which I'm writing them (see Josh's). I'm fully prepared to be called a dork numerous times by my brothers. Especially because I did this all for a nerdy t-shirt.

P.S. I was personally thrilled at the packaging for the shirt, because my address was hand written on the label. I know that this was because the company is rather small, but I found it to be very cool, very personal, because every letter was carefully scribed. I guess I was also thrilled because my last name was spelled correctly, which is a common, sloppy mistake that I'm glad wasn't there.
