Mine isn't either, and I don't think I did anything to do that...
Well, I did just say it in this thread. So you can always pretend you JUST found out
And people like Fishy and MuSu and kd.joseph call me "jess" on a pretty regular basis. So that's probably it!
Everything the light touches is my kingdom.
Hi everyone!
The knot is just too difficult to keep up with!
I have another current irritation. Maybe some of you have some suggestions to help this one?
I have NO clue what to get my dad for Christmas and its making me crazy. He's so hard to shop for because he loves to shop himself and just buys himself whatever he wants/needs. He likes astronomy and his boat and booze.
Wow, JK. That is ten kinds of shitty. I'd be furious if I was you too. That's a pretty rational irritation.

My grandfather is the same way! I just end up getting him a gift card, it's just easier. Of course then he grumbles that I spent money on him...no pleasing the man!
Edited: Cause I wasn't paying attention

I don't know if he has a favorite kind.
Maybe I'll get him a nice bottle of whiskey and a set of whiskey stones?
Even if it isn't the GREATEST GIFT EVER, he's bound to appreciate alcohol, right?

Not crazy at all!
And best to vent on the internet to us instead of to your family
I think that's reasonable. My dad likes wine and chocolate, so last year my sister got him some chocolate wine. Whatever works, yeah?

That's messed up, J, but Edie made me do a chuckle-snort.

That's a great idea... I'll have mom do some snooping through the wine for me...
I do like to get people a more upscale version of something they already use/buy than what they'd ordinarily get themselves.

I am "deaf-initely" one of a kind.

I have no advice but I feel your frustration. My sister is the same way. It was so annoying. I finally just bought her some pajamas, slippers, and other random crap so I could just be done with it. It didn't help that whenever I asked her what she wanted she said, "Oh. Nothing really". I was just like "***, tell me something. Anything!" She didn't so she's getting pajamas.
Yep, you probably do.
Do you exfoliate and moisturize? That works WAY better for me than anything else.
Also, thanks guys for helping me sort out a gift for Dad. I was a little worried that alcohol wasn't a great "Dad" gift, but I feel better about it now!
