Why I am not really a grownup

I realized today that it's Dec. 19, and whoops I am sure I am supposed to buy presents for Casper's 3 teachers. I guess it's better that I thought of this today, and not, say, next Thursday.

Problem: 3 teachers. Gift cards solve everything, of course, and Target gift cards solve double everything, but. Casper has 3 teachers. $10 each feels cheap, but $20 each feels too expensive. Opinions?

Thank god the Dillo has only been in school for 6 days - I feel no obligation to buy his teachers presents this year.

$15 each!

You just said that because of the math, admit it.

I had a similar line of thought about my two staff members, and figured that $15 would be juuuuust right.

You buy presents for your kids' teachers?

Such is modern parenthood. I don't tip the mailman, though.

I did not buy a present for my daughter's teacher. I'm a barbarian. I think $15.00 is a nice number.

You did that whole volunteering thing, though. I think that's worth a lot more than $15.

Crap. You just reminded me I need do that for Ben's teacher.
