I truly had no IDEA so many people felt so strongly about the do not open early thing...Again...I'm feeling like a weirdo because it's been part of my family tradition since childhood to at least open/exchange one gift on Christmas Eve and then also whenever meeting up with people or via mail to just...open when received/given. I seriously thought that was a totally normal thing. I'm quite frankly shocked that so many are like that is a big no no!!

That's how i feel.

I guess I need to explain since I may have started this whole thing. Yes I opened mine early because I was depressed and I really needed a pick me up. I don't get much of anything for my birthday either. I apologize if I upset someone and I won't sign up again. I'm waiting on one gift then I will send mine. I suck at this and wish I could have done better.

Ryanizme, Please don't blame yourself. Christina was probably getting a ton of PMs about etiquette. I hear different people are playing this year.

I'm not upset. I probably will keep participating. I was just wondering.
