Christmas Present List

As a college grad (in 5 days), my list looks much different than it usually has. I'd like to add another suit to my collection, since I'm a broadcaster and more dress clothes in general. I like to thing I have a pretty incredible collection of ties for a 22 year old. A nice watch wouldn't be bad. Some re-ups on my favorite colognes.

 

Other than that, I can't really think of anything. The ESPN 30 for 30 collection on Blu Ray would be neat. Being home for Christmas (mine is on JAN 7) for the first time in a while and knowing I won't have to go back to school in general will be a new feeling.

Man.. I'm the same way. Nice dress clothes/shoes is probably all I'd want (though I wouldn't mind a new laptop. :)) Oh.. and a sox rebuild. :D

Hence the price...

 

Never played 'em so they're new to me :)

I can usually come up with a few things that I want simply because I never manage to actually go out and buy them for myself for some reason.

 

This year I want the new Stephen King book that just came out, a new Sox hat, the Family Guy Star Wars Trilogy and a small hatchet to chop up firewood when we go camping.

 

On BF I picked up a 72-piece drillbit set for $20 at Lowe's just because it was too good a deal to pass up. My wife is wrapping it up and putting it under the tree for me.

And to keep the kids in line. Don't lie.

I wish that xmas were less about gifts and tradition and more about having a great time with family. I've tried three straight years to get everyone to ditch presents (save for the young ones, of course) and use that money on a sweet ass vacation to start making some real memories.

 

I would love that, but it's really hard to leave work for me over the holidays. My friends are all planning on doing a whiskey distillery tour in May, however.

I haven't read a King book in years, but that one peaked my interest.

I'm not sure if that's the list of a 25 year old or a 15 year old.

 

Totally OK with that. Christmas is where I can ask for all the silly things I want, but would never buy for myself.

Why'd you change "buy" to "by"?

Mother-in-law got me a giant popcorn machine. It's still in the trunk.

 

Moms came through with the cold hard cash and the VAST and Primus vinyl.

 

Will be purchasing a Kindle.

I didn't get my cologne. :(

 

I'll be getting my remote start tomorrow or Wednesday though. Pumped for that.

Pretty sweet that you still collect vinyl. I would love to get in to this at some point.

 

What kind of turntable would you recommend?

One likely wouldn't be enough. You'll probably need two, and at least one microphone.

Most of the vinyl I have is collectable, so I don't play it.

hahhaha

What I'd hoped for:

Bulls tix

A sparkly new watch

SCALPED trade, volume 8

 

 

What I got:

another coach clutch from my dad & stepmom--desperate for a girly-girl to dress up, I suppose... ugh (It's still in the trunk)

1/2 pair BULLS/heat tickets (for March) from my best friend--she knows me well.

Scalped trade 8-- from myself. thx Amazon Prime!

 

f*** the watch... I'm goin' to BULLS/heat bay-beh!

I would recommend getting something solid. A Direct Drive table is best, especially if you have want to spend the money on one that you'd like to keep for a long time. Other record players run on belt drives and belts wear out over time.
