Pre-Christmas Boredom

I'm already burned-out for Christmas and it's not even Christmas Eve yet.
My nephew spent the night with us on Friday. What a great kid. We watched Goblet of Fire and debated the finer points of the books. Andy is still amazed at the level of geekitude I possess (as if the cross-country travel didn't tip him off).
Easton was not nearly as crazy as we anticipated. We managed a good space near Bath and Body Works, there was room to turn around in the store, even! I got dad's girlfriend a gift, we stopped at Factory Card Outlet, then went for lunch at Logan's Roadhouse. Everyone got there early, anticipating a long wait for a 12-top table...but we were seated right away. O.o My sister's kids are also amazed at my HP geekitude (which is rich considering they were the ones who got me interested in the books in the first place).
Best Buy was a little nuttier. I worked my way back to Graceland to hit Garden Way for a gift for my boss. I even went to Whole Foods for papadums - and it was manageable.
I think I must have exhausted every bit of holiday shopping karma today.
We're going to my in-laws tomorrow; supposedly they know we're not going to church. I went to work at 10pm tonight to do the bookdrop, so hopefully it'll be okay if I don't get there until 6pm tomorrow. Christmas Eve is a slow return day *crosses fingers*
I get to sleep in on Christmas Day. Ah, bliss!
Obligatory "my family is batshit insane" post coming later on.
Have a happy Christmas/Chanukkah/Festivus!
