i'd say 80%. went to best buy today, boy that was an adventure.

I only have to buy for my wife and I am so far behnd. I told her I was planning my shopping around her having this baby. If she doesn't have it before Christmas - she ain't gettin' much!

100% - finished Saturday morning after guilting myself into buying more for my nephew lol.

 

Congrats mreye - hope all goes well with the impending birth!

Didn't mean to hijack, Tex.

 

 

 

No wait, yeah I did! Screw you!

Seems to be a good time to have a baby!

Remember to tell the Doctor you want to share fully in this experience. Any drugs she gets, you want . . .

 

When my son was born in December of 1988 Dr. Falls and I started discussing the Bulls and how he didn't renew his season tickets. I was just finishing hooking him up with a couple of mine when my wife asked if we were done and maybe someone could help her have this baby!

 

Fast forward a couple years and in 1991 when my daughter was born, once again he had call that night. This time I needed tickets and he reciprocated. Once again my poor bride was left chatting with the nurses.

Good stuff!

100% finished. They are even all wrapped!

 

We were determined to not stay up until 5AM on Christmas morning wrapping presents like we did last year. That sucked...

i've been done for a few weeks now, suckers.

I got all mine done last week. Did all my shopping in the IU bookstore.

 

I couldn't go really anywhere else at the time...

I was born during a Sox game...Apparently my dad and the doctor really wanted to watch it (or there was a tv in the birthing room)...Anyway, my mom was about to murder my dad...

 

But a lifetime love affair with the Sox started that night (for me, not my mom).

Just have to pick up a few more little things

i did the same, hopefully my mom, dad and brother are illini fans.

I've been done shopping and everything has been wrapped since Thanksgiving. Ha ha!

Haven't even started

 

I never will ...

100% but that's only because I did it online this year. I used to always go to the stores a day or two before Christmas and get it done. I hate shopping, not just Christmas shopping, but shopping in general.

Surprisingly I did it all in one fell swoop. Had no ideas as gifts so I just went to Target and from then on it was a crapshoot for about 5 people. I think they'll all like what I got.

 

Then I got to wrap it all in some Free Woman Newspaper I got from White Hen. Boy, what an adventure that was.

 

Santa Zero visited our tree a few hours ago and planted his poorly wrapped gifts around the tree.

Luckily I did all of my Christmas Shopping 2 days ago, the first time in a week I've actually had some free time, since I had worked 5 days in a row prior to that. With all the money I've made from that though, I'm thinking of having a splurge on an XBOX and Halo 2 after Boxing Day when the real sales start, hopefully I can get a special deal.

You just loved to say Boxing Day and watch us Yanks sctratching our heads

That's just half the fun. The other is not getting to throw snowballs at each other.

My daughter was born the weekend of the big Sox comeback against Kerry Wood at Comiskey! I also rear-ended somebody that weekend.

Damn, you're fast!
