So, I'm helping my folks by wrapping gifts while no one's around. The joys of having done it as a job for a season.

And this one keeps randomly talking.

"You're my friend!"

"Hug me!"

"Foot!"

*Icka! refrains from screaming and frantically mummifies the talking thingie*

hehe, I not only wrap gifts for mum, I do it for grandmere, mum's friends, random people...apparently you can get a reputation if you're good enough tying things up.

...but really...that would be slightly freaky to have the present talk to you. I'm not sure I even want to know what the present is (though I have a fear of non animate talking objects, too many horror movies about dolls as a kid).

Guess they're lucky you were wrapping and not me or the receiver would open a bound and duct taped item.

Happy Yule to you and your family by the way, in case we dont' run across each other before next Monday. I gave you a gift in your last Plural update on impfics.

It's a talking bear that you give to toddlers. We have an infant and a toddler this year I'm wrapping gifts for. ^^;;

*laughs* One year, I wrapped my youngest sister's prezzie in something like 17 layers. Including boxes, bags, napkins, tissue, wrapping paper, tins, chinese food boxes, duct tape, electrical tape, notebook paper and everything else I could get my hands on.
It took her 26 minutes to open it. We sat around and timed it. ^___________^

Happy Yule to you and yours as well! ((Huggles)) Hope you have a good one!

I'm surprised your sister didn't murder you for that one. I would have (I'm not a greedy spoiled brat...even if I resemble one...really!).

And I KNOW I'm going to have a good Yule this year, the planed extended family dinner..thing fell through, so my most hated uncle will NOT be here to ruin my holiday!

It's hard, being the blacksheep of your family at a full family gathering.
