Well other than the poster from CG I'm not hoping for anything - this laptop was a combo birthday/Christmas present from my brother, and my dad will probably get me some random stuff like DVDs he hopes I'll like and maybe fuzzy socks or something, and that's all.

I've already ordered some stuff for my brother and I want to get him one other thing; and I want to make something for my dad, and try to buy him like one other thing maybe, and that's it. We have a teeny family. Oh and then there's the parrot, I'll get her something. I don't have any friends in the area so I don't have anyone else to shop for.

I'll wait until December sometime to decorate.

Honestly, the things I want are too expensive, and the only thing I really would care about right now is getting the job and relocate to CA. That would be good enough for me. ;)

Not really sure what I'll be getting for the others, though. I probably will spend a little less for each one this year (I'll likely be spending the same, knowing me), since anything goes between now and next year.

Wii... Zelda...

I'll probably get my dad a nice pair of socks, and maybe I'll make him some coconut macaroons for his stocking. My mom, I have no idea what I'm getting for her! I'll get my brothers a king-size bag of their favorite candy, and that's it for family members!

My friend, Paul, shall get 4 Trans-Siberian Orchestra cds that will double as his birthday gift(His birthday is on the 14th of December.). My other friend, Bryan, will get my holographic Zapdos pokemon card(Yes, I collect pokemon cards; shut up!). My friend, Amber, I'll probably get the first volume of Fullmetal Alchemist, seeing as it's her favorite anime, and she's never read a manga.

As for what I want, it's not a very big list. Mostly I just want Gameboy Color games.

My Fiancee and I are spending Christmas Eve with my Grandmother (she is 92), and my mother. We will watch Christmas movies, and then go around the corner for Chinese food (which is excellent by the way).:frankiesmile:

92? I'll bet she's got a lot of stories to tell. :)

She and my Grandfather (rest his soul) used to Broadcast during the Golden age of radio in Cleveland. Grandfather later became the announcer for the Cleveland Indian games. Everything they did was live, and my Grandfather worked with Marshall Jones (later Grandpaw Jones from Hee-Haw), and they both knew the Marx Brothers. They are all wonderful pieces of history which I treasure.:frankiesmile:

Thank you so much, and I look forward to Christmas Eve to spend with her!:frankiesmile:

I'm sure your Grandma is looking forward to seeing you, as well. :)
My grandma passed away 7 years ago. I still miss her.
