Daily Diary: Wrapping Gifts with Dane Cook

I remember seeing Dane Cook on SNL years ago. I actually think the story went a little something like this… someone cancelled, he filled in last minute and just rocked it out of the park. I literally remember sitting in front of the TV laughing so hard I was crying and gasping for air. That’s the kind of laughing I love… he was inappropriate in his jokes, but so FUNNY! He was “born” that night on a huge stage on SNL… and I was an instant fan.

So…

Last night as I looked at the pile and boxes of gifts that needed to be wrapped, and got that you’ve-got-to-be-kidding-me feeling in my stomach, I was just about to say, “Ahh… I’ll do it tomorrow night,” but then I happened to see that Dane Cook was on Comedy Central. It was an old segment, but one that I’d never seen before… so I figured, you know what – I’m wrapping with Dane tonight. Even if I get 4 gifts wrapped, it’s better than nothing.

(My husband was playing XBOX in the basement… I don’t know how the men continuously get out of buying and wrapping!)

In the course of an hour, while laughing hysterically… I wrapped 42 gifts.

42 gifts.

My mom, dad, sister, husband, coaches, teachers, brothers, nieces and nephews are done.

DONE. Thanks to Dane.

I don’t know what it is, but the guy is the funniest guy on the planet!

So… I’m up on the wrapping.

Thanks to my Dane.

Now only if he’ll be on again tonight while Santa’s wrapping…

Just saying.

    okay – I need to use this technique…comedy and wrapping. I need to find me some Tosh and Eddy Murphy oldies. That might make my pile look a little less daunting too. Yes and how do those men get outta the WORK!!!
