Title: Already XMas stressed?
Post by: benny! on November 29, 2011
What's up everyone ? Are you already Xmas stressed or are you just getting drunk on one of the dozen christmas markets ? At least here in Germany there is a Christmas Market in nearly every district. And I remember two years ago, I was on a pretty cool Christmas Market in Manchester.

So, I hope you all are not too stressed at the moment buying christmas presents.

Powering through the last couple weeks before I spend a month back home in the US :) Crazy stoked.. really busy lately, but it's fun :)

So, in answer to the question, a little bit, but not too bad :)

Bought mine in January - for some reason they encourage us to buy stuff that early by lowering the prices. ;)

I have a day off tomorrow - it was supposed to be used to get christmas prezzies... I'm hoping it's dry though so that I can jetwash the patio instead!

I hate Christmas shopping.

Still one more release cycle to go before we can relax here :(  THEN I can start thinking about what people might want as presents.

I think I've got most of my presents sorted, so not too stressed. I'm sure there'll be last minute trips to the shops for things I've forgotten though :)

Yeah, the crazy thing is that my wife doesnt need specific presents .. it's just like, "hey lets spend the day in the city" ... bah - but luckily, it was a short trip and I survived it ;-)
