I buy my own Christmas presents, especially small stocking stuff. Otherwise I wouldn't get any. I also end up buying things I need while Christmas shopping, because I don't shop that often, and while I'm at the mall, I might as well pick up some jeans. This is how I happened to go bra shopping on Black Friday.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
ION, is it tacky that I have been buying things for myself as I do all my Christmas shopping?
Oh Msbelle, presents for myself is how I get through Xmas shopping. It does not help that everything is on sale right now. I am almost at a 1:1 ratio of presents to "presents for me."
Anti-dinosaur bigotry, or just good common sense?
Also, somewhere there's a Blockbuster that's hiring?
I bought myself a new chair and consider that a Christmas prezzie to me.
Car is at the shop. Now it is crossing fingers that they don't find anything hidden that needs work. A couple of weeks ago, when I got the tires changed, I needed new brakes. This time it is at the auto body replacing a window.
Well, if Blockbusters has been unwittingly hiring velociraptors to handle point of sale, I can see why they are having trouble keeping customers.
Also, somewhere there's a Blockbuster that's hiring?
Yes.
Though specifically, I don't like public proposals because it feels more like he's playing to the crowd than to his girl. The moment is special; it doesn't need more cowbell.
This. If you have to use peer pressure from thousands of strangers to ensure a yes, you shouldn't be getting married in the first place.
btw, here's the purse: [link]
I did not know of pook-a-looz, damn but they are cute. also, the trim on the purse is hot pink, not red like it looks in the pic.
oh, I should try the Blockbuster by me for the original Tron. It's not on Netflix and mac really wants to see it.
I say if you like opening presents more than you hate wrapping them, go ahead and wrap! Why not?
The original Tron isn't on DVD, so it's long out of print. Someone I was reading the other day thinks it is because Disney doesn't want people to remember how terrible it was.
