Weird Christmas gifts

[talikat]

Anybody get anything weird for Christmas? Most of the things I got were things I would use and things that I like, but there's always one present that just makes me say.........huh?

This is what my sister (who's known me for 53 years) gave me.

If you are asking if I am returning any of my gifts, nope, nada, no way Jose. These are all mine, I'm not sharing with anyone,

If you asking about returning the favor of exchanging gifts, soon, very soon.

I was asking about you returning gifts but returning the favor works too!

The Cherokee language course did it for me.

Not nearly as good as the silver-plated personally-engraved computer mouse.

Weird sister-in-law.

I got a weird contraption from a distant Aunt that says "Get well soon" in the card accompanying it. Reading the instructions, I figured out it's sort of a stretching/therapy device for the back. I couldn't understand why she'd send me that. Taunt? Her subtle way of saying I've got a hunchback? Mislabeled gift?

What?

Calling her seems futile as she never picks up the phone and shipping this gift back to the States will cost more money than that f-ing dungeon device itself.

So.....I'm waiting for someone to break their back.

Maybe it's one of those 'just in case' gifts. That's a puzzler if nothing is wrong with your back.

She's one of those cool aunts you'd love to hang around with. Crazy, just short of being manic, and very generous. This gift was out-of-the-blue thing. I have my fingers crossed and hope it was mislabeled.

I'll donate it to a physiotherapy centre where it'll be put to better use.

Except I hardly sit at a desk any more. A 12.5-inch ThinkPad occupies my lap as I loll in a recliner. I should mount the mouse in a shadowbox on the wall.

Yeah, I have one of those too, she's so eccentric, you can't help but love her.

And it's there if you ever need it!

While in the Air Force I was deployed to Panama on a "Temporary Duty Assignment" (TDY). It was Christmas 1993. I received a Christmas package from my then wife (now ex!!!!) Among the things that I revived was a package of underwear, that were not my size Having been married for 2 years, I thought that was one thing she knew about me. Turns out she got my package of underwear confused with her boyfriends (back home, banging her while I was away) Worst Christmas ever.
