Geek Out

So with Thanksgiving done and buried (honestly, I’m not sure why we even recognize it as a holiday considering how little of an effort is put into it in this day and age), it’s time to turn my attention to the upcoming birthday and Christmas shenanigans. I mean it’s December after all.
People always ask me what I want and I feel bad because I never can tell them anything that’s affordable. I’m a creature of expensive things I guess. Anyways here’s the current list:

Macbook Pro 17”
Amazon Kindle 2 (x)
Apple iPhone 3G
64 cm road bicycle
Halo Risk (x)
Call of Duty 42 (x)
Pygmy from Chuck Palahniuk (x)
Rainbow Sandals (x)
Star Trek the Next Generation Complete DVD set
James Bond Complete DVD set


There you have it. Most of those gifts are each easily over $100. Plus I can burn the DVDs if I just take my time (which I’d rather do then see someone fork over the money.) The funny thing is I realized that I’m a total geek. All of this stuff is just not what the average consumer would want.

I guess I can’t deny my existence anymore. I am what I am.

But seriously guys, just get me whatever you think I’d like. As long as I can see the thought you put behind it, and that you didn’t just buy me a rain poncho last minute out of the checkout stand Christmas Eve, it’s all good. Or you can lie to yourself and combine my birthday gift with my Christmas gift to make it super duper special.
Let the Yule tide begin.
