Actually, this is me receiving a gift, a very nice one in fact from my girlfriend’s aunt and uncle. It got lost in the shuffle of Christmas, so I got it later when I was in Jersey for playoff football. They sent me a waterproof hiking map of the region that contains the tallest point in Texas, which is perfect for my quest to conquer America’s highpoints. It also helps out with my side goal of using the quest to connect with friends and relatives from that state. Thanks for a great gift!
The thought of gifts leads me to the wtb’s impending birthday. I have no idea what to get her. Using the concept of negative space I am making a list of all the things I know I shouldn’t get her, based on what she has said recently:
turtles
universal remote control
media center computer
cell phone
Steelers charm bracelet
Beerfest on Blu-ray DVD
wii
I’m still clueless, but I’ll probably end up buying something in the corner bodega, either coffee or Bollywood CDs.
