Pressie, Christmas present, not absent

I just looked up the word present; so many meanings behind that little word. You can also see how the word present came to mean gift.
Consider: Present a person to your King. (Interesting to note that that also makes them present for that day, as in not absent). Then you present a gift to your King. Then dumb it down to, Here's your present.
There is a chance I just wrote all this on a whim because I am procrastinating over fixing up a part of my novel that has been said have too much dialogue with too much geek info. Publisher included.
I guess I better get to work.
