November 2006: Finish My Christmas Shopping
A RESOLUTION to Finish My Christmas Shopping by the End of November 2006
WHEREAS I’m your prototypical last-minute Christmas shopper, and
WHEREAS Such practices typically result in poor financial decisions, and
WHEREAS The main failure in finishing Christmas shopping early is simply a failure to plan ahead, and
WHEREAS this entire series is about planning ahead,
THEREFORE Let it be hereby resolved by the Board of Directors of GFMorris.com that I will finish my 2006 Christmas shopping by the end of November 2006.
THEREFORE Let it be further resolved that a report on the success of this effort be made no later than 2 Dec 2006.
RESOLVED on this, the twelfth day of January, 2006, by the Board of Directors of GFMorris.com, Geof F. Morris, Resident Truck Drivin’ Man, presiding.

“Prototypical” isn’t the correct word.

Have pity on me, man. I’ve been awake for nine hours already.
