My face says it all. Bah Humbug.When it came to the holidays as a child, I was definitely less of a giver and more of a Grinch. I spent my life on the naughty list. There is one story that sort of epitomizes my selfishness as a girl: I came home from school one day and my mom informed me that she had to rush my middle brother to the hospital. She asked if I could babysit my baby brother until my parents returned home. I of course agreed to (plus I had a plan of my own). Once the coast was clear, I headed up to my parent's bedroom and ransacked their walk-in closet in search of my Christmas gifts. After a not so difficult search, I found the mother-load. I was beyond thrilled. All of the items I wanted from The Limited Too were in attendance, AND the Michigan Starter Jacket I have been begging for. I proceeded to have a full fledged personal fashion show. It lasted hours. I had never been happier. I could have cared less about my injured brother. I had one thing on my mind: clothes! Thankfully I was able to put everything back just as I had found it, and when my parent's returned they had no idea. My brother was fine too. Being the brainiac that I was, I decided to brag to all of the neighborhood girls about my findings. Well, one of those little snitches told her mom, who then called my mom, who in turn returned all of my gifts! I was devastated! I thought that the only present waiting for me under the tree that year would be a big lump of coal. Thankfully my parents took mercy on me and repurchased new gifts. I quickly learned my lesson, and have since decided to focus my energies on giving and not receiving!
I've compiled a collection of gift ideas for everyone on Santa's naughty list: That person who's always late, or the girl that starts a fire when she cooks, your Bridezilla girlfriend, a messy roommate, and all of the little devils in between. From stocking stuffers to the big ticket items, I hope you find a little something for everyone (maybe even yourself)!
