Living life in the carpool lane..

Is it just me or is the White Elephant gift game really stressing?!

It’s stressful to me in many ways.. mainly because I just tend to over think the entire process.

1.  It’s stressful to get the gift. 
What if it’s something that no one wants?!

2.  It’s stressful to pick a gift out of the pile. 
What if it’s something I don’t want?  Will it hurt the buyers feelings if I decide on something else?  What if it’s something that I do want?  What if someone else wants it too?

3.  It’s stressful to watch the others pick their gift. 
What if no one picks my gift?  What if someone wants the gift I already settled on?

4.  It’s stressful at the end. 
What if I end up with something I don’t want?

Am I the only one that puts this much thought and worry into White Elephant? 

Please tell me I’m not the only one!!!
