The point is to give, not to receive

Which is trufax, but it's also a bit of an inversion because getting presents is pretty awesome. But as a basement cat apparently said, and what a little kid passed on to me, is maybe we should do posts about what we gave to others.

Which is funny because I can see ya'll squirming right now. *smacked*

This year, I had to buy...everything. Which is something I'm not totally used to doing. The big ones I typically get a pass on, but not this year. This year, my brother and I split the cost of three gifts, but they still put a dent in the wallet. This past semester was strenuous on the budget, though I usually managed to make a profit of about 20 bucks a month. XP This should give you an idea of how much I spent...but also of how much I worked for it.

Annnyway:

- A crockpot for my sister-in-law. Split with my brother.
- A dolly for my dad, also split. This was a major one. Now I want to have races with it.
- Flat iron for my mom, again split. Mom has shorter (and thinner) hair than me, so why she needs one is beyond me.
- Between me and my brother, we exchange the gift of relative peace for a few hours. And lunch.
- For the other brother with the aforementioned wife who got the crockpot, this shirt. It took him a while, but he thought it was funny. :V
- Promised sushi lunch with the idkbff Lorenza. We still have yet to do that. It's kinda how we roll. ......*rimshots*
- "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives" season 4 set and a copy of Jane Eyre for TimeChaser. Also a very elaborately decorated box to ship it in because I had to.
- For Miss Anonymous, this shirt and no, there is absolutely no context to it other than "this is the kind of thing I know Missy would get".
- And for Mistress Duck, this shirt. If you need it explained to you, then...no.
- Finally sent Nehszriah this. Figured she should get it before it got something spilled on it. P:
- Power Rangers chopsticks for another friend of mine. I'm not going to explain that one either.
- Slippers for Terumi, Jiaqi, and Deborah, aka, my future roommates.
- And for everyone else, the gift of me putting up with you a thumbs up. *smacked again*
