I'm the worst person to shop for because I usually just buy whatever I want since I have no one else to support. People usually insist on getting me something and I basically have to tell them what to get on amazon because they don't know what I like and don't have already. I've been trying to convince people to not by me anything and I not buy them anything but they can't be pragmatic about these kinds of things.
Actually, my dad had the most kickass gift for me...we were going to go to the Red Wings/Hurricanes game the day after Christmas, but the NHL is locked out
FUCK.
I'll probably just ask if we can go out to eat in a few exotic places since the town I'm in doesn't even have an Italian restaurant (yet we have 3 shitty Chinese ones, one decent Chinese, and 4 Mexican).
