The List

last modified: Friday, December 30, 2005 (1:40:33 AM CST)

This year I made it easy for family and friends to buy me a Christmas present by making a list of every anime DVD I own. The list wasn't hard to create since I copied most titles from the digitaleyes.net order history page. I pointed them to this gallery so they could get some visual ideas of what I like, and made a link to the list on my wishlist page.

It worked out great! I like to be surprised but everyone asks me what I want because I'm difficult to buy for. Having the list and gallery, they weren't scared of buying something I already own or don't like. What I got wasn't important, just that everyone had an easy time and enjoyed themselves. The most fun was having people enter my world by looking through the racks at the stores and this site, hopefully getting into anime a bit themselves.

Merry xmas!!!

Merry xmas everyone!

I bought my last present at 6:02 PM today :P Just some extras though, I'm not foolish enough to leave the important presents to chance... at least not this year ;)

It's crazy out there but I love going shopping xmas eve. I guess it's the excitement and how everyone has this common goal. It's also fun to help other shoppers, since many of the employees are too busy (or clueless, no offense). The bad thing is that it's exceedingly easy to get in a car crash. I passed by a bunch.

I just finished wrapping presents at 2:45 AM! I had this idea that I'd make them look really pretty this year and I had no idea it would take that long. Now all I have to do is get up in 4 hours to drive to my mom's house... so I can fall asleep in a bed of wrapping paper :)
