I Am Such A Geek!
Every year my family draws names to decide who gives gifts to whom at Christmas. (Trying to figure out what to give one person is *so* much easier than trying to find something for seven!) This year (for reasons known only to her) my mom asked if I wanted to draw the names.
Can you see it coming? <g/>
So I wrote a C# app to choose the names. I swear it took less time than writing out all the names, cutting them out, picking the names out of a hat, and recording the picks would have taken!
