Just finished wrapping the presents, with my usual masterly technique. The trick is to put all the messy seams on one side and present the package on the clean seamless side. Anyway nobody takes time to look at the wrapping, do they?
People tell me they can recognize packages I've wrapped ... from across the room.

I don't believe that it's a compliment.

My cat always helps me wrap ... she's a tape addict ... and loves to lie on the paper ...

Could the recognition be the cat fur sticking out of them?

Yes, they do. That's one reason Chris went to Keller for his Master's degree(s). Because he was coming out of DeVry, it was a little less complicated.

Congrats!
It is really not nice spending a night at the airport; nothing to do, watching your belongings etc.
