It was the Christmas party. And everyone was gathered around. It was time to open the presents. I was glad I did my job. Sort of. See I had gotten someone The same gift my friend had given me. Some years back. And rewrapped it. I was hoping no one would notice. And think my gift was generous When it was basically the gift version of leftovers.
I held my breath. My co-worker opened the present. And stared at it in puzzlement. She said This person got me… an Ipod classic? They don’t make those anymore But it would have to do. I thought Keep on with the Christmas spirit! Suddenly she looked kind of mad Oh no. She cried out It still has movies and music on it! Who would do such a thing! Well, I would. Do you know how hard it is to find a box to fit an Ipod Classic? I had to rummage through my attic. It was so cold and cramped and dark up there. Kudos to me for finding the box. But I had to keep calm. The gift-giving at the Christmas party was anonymous So she would never know it was me. But if I tried to slip out. Everyone would know the truth. I was the worst kind of Christmas giver A regifter So I just watched to see what would happen. I Thought it could not get any worse Boy was I wrong.
She started to read the movies and music on it. Horrible Bosses, Avengers, X-Men, Star Trek. Why do you have to put me on blast like that. I just hoped that she wouldn’t scroll…… Oh no the pictures I had selfies on it. I’m doomed. At least I had a good life. But she put the IPod back in her purse. And said that she would clear it And use it as a backup for her digital media. I’m safe for now. I just should not be surprised. If I get an angry call in the middle of the night soon I know why.
