Christmas Eve Gift...

My Dad's side of the family has always had this fun tradition for Christmas Eve. The object is to try to be the first one to tell someone else "Christmas Eve Gift". I'm not exactly sure what the point is, but it's something you do every year. Maybe you're supposed to get an extra gift from them?

Anyway, over the years, you get to the point where you answer the phone "Christmas Eve Gift" because if you say "Hello", the person on the other end of the line will respond with "Christmas Eve Gift", meaning you have just been gotten.

Well, this year, I was going to be the KING of the "CEG". I came downstairs, fired up the computer, and was getting ready to FaceBook and E-mail all of the relatives I could. Alternative delivery method. Those suckers wouldn't even expect this...

I opened up Facebook, and there it was. A message posted on my wall from Cousin Jeff, posted at some crazy hour like 2 am...
