No Cash here, but my $25 gift card thing may go towards a game purchase... I'm not really certain yet, since I'm otherwise broke from buying people gifts this year.

Gamestop - Returning a GBA game and getting Super Mario Advance 2: Super Mario World

EB Games - Using gift card and own money to get Tony Hawk: American Sk8land DS, and possibly Animal Crossing DS

Mall Gift Card - uh...probably like some video game t-shirt at Hot Topic

Best Buy - Some sort of anime more than likely. Possibly use the card and some of my own money on a cheap perfect collection as that is the only way to buy anime nowadays.

Target - Returning a gift I got and hopefully, I'll have enough to get some movies. Rat Race and Kung Pow have been on my list for a while.

Cash - Naruto: Narutimett Hero 3, Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan!, and Beatmania IIDX 10th Style.

Make sure you look up reviews and possibly gameplay videos before you do that. I haven't heard good things.

Maybe World of Warcraft and a 60-day game card, depending on if I can scrape up 16 more dollars - that's if they're still selling it in store for $30, rather than the $50 on EBGames...

If not, maybe a cheap XBox, GCN, or GBA game...

My nephews brought over their new GBA SPs - the ones with the new, backlit screen instead of the sidelit of the original GBA SP. Holy crap, seen side by side with mine the difference is unbelieveable. I could never be so disloyal to trade in my Cobalt GBA SP.

Going to expand my PSX RPG collection and maybe some retro systems and games. I don't know but right now I'm feeling so much more desire to get all the stuff I loved as a kid back, and maybe Final Fantasy Tactics because everyone loves it and I've never played it so I don't know what the fuck.

After that: CLOTHES SHOPPING. I just found out about a cheap custom print place that is a ton cheaper than anything else I've seen, so I'm going to get pretty things made for me and then buy other pretty things to go with it. *girly teehee giggle*

Im considered a bit old for presents, either that or my family is really cheap. The wife gave me her usual present which I look forward to every year and My mom gave me an $25.00 gift card for Target.


Still I had a wonderful time with my family yesterday, they all came over for dinner. We talked, looked over the family album cought up on things, and enjoyed each others company.

I don't know how to be sexy. If I catch a girl looking at me and our eyes lock, I panic and open mine wider. Then I lick my lips and rub my genitals. And mouth the words "You're dead."

Waste of money. Unless the "power" that razor possesses is to not get clogged up with hair instantly like the regular Quattro.

I actually noticed moving from the Mach3 to the Mach3 "Power" or whatever the closeness and ease of shaving. I was just as skeptical at first (ZOMG BUZZING OBJECT WITH SHARP THINGS ON MY FACE), but I was pleasantly suprised.

-a new pair of skater sneaks
-a red-pinstripe suit with crushed velvet undershirt (spiffy!)
-more comfortable undies from fruit of the loom
-a pair of blue and silver dangly earrings that look super cute.

Unless you dont have a cell phone or you hate the one you have now really bad, I'd go with the Light Saber. Those things are hella fun especially if you have a friend with one. The price for that one is pretty good too.
