Can I Borrow Some Tape?

This year marks the first EVER that I have done any Christmas shopping prior to December. In fact, I have even wrapped 2 presents already, and am awaiting the shipment of most of my other gifts. I'm usually the one that goes shopping en route to family functions, shows up with newly-purchased items and wrapping paper, and am all, "Can I borrow some tape?". Every year since 2004 I have essentially been out of town the first 2-3 weeks of December, as I will be this year, so I am really excited to already have a handle on this. You'd think I would have learned about this early-shopping phenomenon prior to now.











It seems petty, but I'm celebrating my small victories.
