Actually, I reminded you that you COMPLAIN that you never have time to
go shopping and thus around December 25th (and for a while afterwards),
you have this cloud hanging over you from having not gotten gifts.

What I find most annoying about Christmas shopping is the fact that I'm
doing it on a limited budget.  There are bunches of things that I know
my friends/relatives would like, but I just can't afford to get them;
instead I rack my brain (only sometimes successfully) for inspiration
on smaller gifts.

I don't want to be rich for what the money can do for me; I'd like to
have the $$ to get gifts for others....
