Randman's World

My wife thought she had the perfect surprize present for me. She openly mocked me, saying I would never figure out what she was getting me. Of course, I quickly figured it out. And, the only reason I told her was because it was something that I really don't need.

She wanted to get me an IPOD Nano. Very cool gift, and something she knows I would like, being electronic and new and cool. But then, I started thinking about it, and truly, I don't know when I would ever use it. Can't listen to it in my car. My boss doesn't like us wearing headphones at work, so I can't listen to it at work. So, I really would probably never use it. It would end up in a drawer, like my Palm Pilot. That's why I went ahead and told her that I figured out the present, and that I really didn't want her to get me one.

So, now, she is asking what I want for Christmas, and I honestly can't think of anything. I have everything.

Computer - check.
Speakers - check.
Laptop - check.
Printer - check.
Scanner - check.
TIVO - check.
DVD Burner - check.
Digital Camera - check.
Mini DV Camcorder - check.
Home Theatre - check
TV's - check, check, check, check.

I really have no idea what I want for Christmas. Sure, a new keyboard would be nice, but I don't want to spend $600.00 (and if she tried to buy me one, she'd get a whoopin'). A Hi-Def TV would be nice, but again, too much money (we're still paying off things from all the Russia trips).

Truth be told, I got the best present I could ever get back on August 1st. Now that I have my Charlie-bear, I really don't need anything else.
