So there I am, stuck going to the stores on the 24th. I'm choosing to look at it as a family tradtion - me getting quality time with Dad!
That was my daddy, right up until the Christmas before he died! It got so the jewelers had things ready for us.

The best part is, they run amok with everyone else's list, but just can't handle it if someone gets creative with theirs. My brother had to waste some time at Best Buy two weeks ago, and during a call, asked me if I wanted an iPod for Christmas. I most emphatically said no. Anybody want to make some bets that I get an iPod this Christmas?
