What's with all the wrapping?

This isn't a new post in my blog! It's a confession! I have this incomparable compulsion to pack all gifts, that go out to anyone from a group of people including me, myself. I don't even like the gift store doing it for me! In that context, I am Monica Geller from F.R.I.E.N.D.S. I HAVE to be "the wrapper", just like she HAD to be "the hostess". Not just that, there has to be a knot or bow on top (refer the image above if you don't trust me on that one!). Layering is an icing on the cake! Fabric wraps, nets, ribbons, little motifs in golden foil, binding wires covered in silver foil, scissors to chafe the ribbon to curls are all the love of my life! And, I like to spend my own sweet time with the gift doing it all. At times I have wondered if I could connect to Monica at more than one levels, just because of my ability to showcase tid-bits of OCD in my life.

The fact, that I CANNOT go to sleep without laying out the clothes, shoes and everything for the next day during the week, does not make me any less cuckoo! And I mean it when I say I CANNOT. I've actually had to debate myself for five minutes before diving out of the bed finally to get it done. Now, you might shake that one off as a tiny abnormality, but I am sure you would not be able to write off the one coming.

Although most of my friends have witnessed "the wrapper-syndrome", they are, most probably, not aware of the fact that my conditioner always ALWAYS sits on the outer side of my shampoo. Now, I am sure you must be dying to know why! .... Well, I'll let you in on the secret behind it (only after I find it out, that is)!
