The Ordeal Is Over! At Least Until Next Year...

I've finally finished up all my Christmas shopping. Well, OK, I've still got one item that's not actually in my possession yet, but the company I ordered it from e-mailed me a couple of days ago and assured me that it had just been shipped, so I should have it in my hot little, wrapping-paper-and-tape-filled hands very soon. Now the big question is how I'm going to haul all this stuff to my sister's place on the plane...

If you're still desperately looking for some last-minute gift ideas, may I recommend Dave Barry's Gift Guide? I'm particularly fond of the duct tape purse, myself. Hint, hint.
