13. Funny thing about Christmas presents.

Sat Dec 6, 2025, 01:42 PM

Dec 6

My wife's birthday is the 24th and mine is the 29th. We both agree we were screwed as a kid. Lots of Birthmas gifts.

So, we don't give each other Christmas gifts other than small token ones.

But we each get Kick Ass Birthday gifts.
