The Backlog = 4

Might be gone for a few days as my computer is acting wonky.
Nothing exciting to report. Nothing mundane to report. I'm getting into a real nice dull right now. It's incredibly boring really, like watching paint dry kind of boring.

Gifticus - The Period of Disappointment

As Geocities is shutting down, I have moved all information about Gifticus to this blog.

The Period of Gifticus starts the day after Eastern Orthodox Christmas and ends one day after Valentine's Day. [January 8 - February 15]

The "Rules" or "Loose Guidelines" of Gifticus....
- no feast
- no family
- no religious affiliation
- all participants must be over the age of eighteen in order to celebrate/ be disappointed.

There are two gifts are involved, where one gift must be three hangars. The gifts are not wrapped in paper but in a plastic bag because there will be a good chance you would need tape if you use paper and tape costs money. Furthermore, it's two gifts per household, not two gifts per person, so you have a better chance of disappointing more people if more than two people live in one house. The best place to deliver gifts is at a home, but not necessary your own. And most importantly, the receiver of the gifts must reply in a disappointed thank you.

Acceptable Second Gifts:
- anything you own that you want to get rid of, but not to give away to complete strangers
- gifts that are re-gifted
- anything that would be ideal for a yard sale

Unacceptable or Frowned upon Second Gifts
- anything in which the receiver would like

For more details, or questions, please leave comments on this blog, Thank You.
