How to Get Lost

Tamara gave me her Christmas present before I left Calgary last night. She
had a theme going! It was very cool. There were three wrapped packages,
which included:

• Luggage tag with a Canadian flag
• Travel sewing kit (especially useful when you only have four changes
  of clothes)
• One of those funky wallet-belts to keep things close and personal
• Lonely Planet’s Russian Phrase book
• A Hong Kong tourist book

Suddenly, I feel like a schmuck roommate/friend for giving her a t-shirt
and a couple of movie passes. Man, she totally outdid me this year.

Sigh.
