I came home from work today and after a few minutes, the husband followed.

"Do you want to open your presents?" He asks me.
"No. My birthday's not until Sunday, I can wait."

This was not the response he was looking for, so he repeats his question--"So...do you want to open your presents now?"

"Okay, so you must WANT me to open my presents now?"

He nods vigorously. I'm the same way, I just can't wait for people to open things that I give them. And so I open my presents.

Boy dun good. I now have Season 2 of the Muppet show, a Bamboo Fun tablet for photo editing, and a super-neat digital photo frame for work (which means that I'll finally have pictures of the two of us, and not just Emily and Benjamin, up at work).

Ehhem. Both of my techie-presents came pre-opened. Ehhem. He had to "test" them. :)

He's upstairs right now playing with my presents...or, at least, one of them.

ahh, one of the great joys of being a husband is buying wonderful things for your wife that you get to use too.

(though I *do* wait until she's opened them to play with them) :-)

Yes, well, he wanted to, "Make sure they worked on a Mac," first so I, "Wouldn't be disappointed."

In my defense, I had to put some pictures into the digital photo frame so that you didn't just get the standard "pretty flowers" picture upon setting it up. I admit that besides making sure it worked, I really REALLY wanted to play with the tablet though.
