or what should i get dad for christmas? In the past couple of years i've gotten him a watch, digital camera, hat, motorcycle helmet.

he's really into motorcycling. I thought about getting a spot but its a little pricey on its own and he would never pay for the service. besides, i think part of reason he like riding is motorcycle is he can go whatever the hell he wants. But I can't really think of anything else.

mom's getting a wii excerise game. i don't know much about wii's, but she seems to enjoy wii fit. i assume this will compliment what she already has.

^^yeah, i'd thought about that too, but was trying to keep everyone's gifts around $100 or less this year. a GPS would double what i've spent so far.

Today wasn't a half bad day to shop. I didn't have to fight to buy what I needed.

I wrapped all the presents once I had finished everything up today, and now all I have left on my list of stuff to do is to possibly find my dad another gift and to return the K'nex starter kit I bought for my Nephew (which has been replaced with a Lego Star Wars toy that cost twice as much, and was apparently on his Christmas list).

It's some GOOD SHIT to have your shopping done, though. This changes nothing, however, as come Wednesday I will be shopping again with my mom & dad, and Thursday I'll be shopping with dad starting at about 6pm going until about 10pm. We're always bad about finding halfway decent stuff for mom for Christmas. It's a fucking problem when Belk, Macy's, Hecht's, etc have the same fucking women's clothing selection that they've had for the past fifteen years. They apparently think that women just dress poorly unless they're supermodels. Fuckers.

my dad picked out his present, i just need to wrap and reimburse so that was easy

brother - need to get a giftcard to walmart (that is like where he does all his grocery shopping so it is the most useful thing)

boyfriend - we will be shopping the after christmas sales to find him a new pair of pants and i now owe him a belt because my dog ate his!

so. i'm not too worried.

oh i have to get a gift for my family exchange and a secret santa present but those don't stress me out at all.
