I'm giving you an applause, this was a conversation between my friends the other evening about whether or not you buy your children dolls that LOOK like them. I don't think I am racist, as some of my friends called me, but I don't think a non-black doll will ever cross the threshold of my future house as a plaything for my future kidpeople.
As for the topic at hand...
My auntie had to convince me not to be hateful towards mom-dukes and husband this year and to go in with her on a gift.
For them I'm going in on some kind of special damn coffeemaker, that in addition to several other functions, brews a cup at a time.
Nana will be getting a tennis bracelet
The friend whose name I drew will be getting a gift certificate to Vicky's, what she asks for EVERY year.
No manperson to buy for

, but I was planning on getting P-Diddy a nice watch, as he left his favorite one here...and I didn't like it anyway.
I'm going to get myself a day at the spa, complete with massage, pedicure, facial, manicure, etc. I really need this the more I think about it.
