Good Morning all and happy hollies! :D

Was your haul as good as mine? I think probably not :P Maybe not so much for quantity but for sure in terms of quality.

My wonderful, adorable (see previous post), lovely husband hit the jackpot this year, with the giving thing that is.

Gary (and I know I'm gonna embarrass him by saying this, sorry honey) is notorious for not trusting his own judgement where gift giving is concerned. If he doesn't have a road map to all your holiday wishes, he's convinced he won't be able to get what you want. The first or second Valentine's Day that we were together he bought me The Wedding Singer and Jerry Maguire. Perfect gifts for where we were in our relationship and it spoke volumes about the fact that he knew me well enough to know that I love movies and knew me well enough to know which movies I would love. And he did it with no coaching from me before hand. I came home and found a dozen dasies in a vase on the table and a bag in front of it with my prize possessions inside.

That was the last time that he has bought me anything without me first telling him what I wanted. This year I came up with the idea of skipping Christmas for each other and focusing on the people we needed to buy for. This was not a popular idea and was quickly nixed. And ever since, he's been repeating his holiday mantra of "I don't know what to get you. You have to tell me what you want." Well not this year bub. Oh no. This year, he would have to find his own way through the maze of Christmas Gift Giving and trust himself enough to be able to figure out what I would like.

Well ladies and gents, he did it. In spades. In the spirit of my new found addiction to World Of Warcraft, his Husband Armor took a +300 enchant while his 'I Will Get Laid This Christmas!' spell is more than likely to be uninterupted while casting. At longer ranges.

He got me a movie. That was an easy one. I'm a movie freak. But which movie to get? Faced with the plethora of choices available at Best Buy (can you say mental breakdown?) he zero'd in on the perfect title. The Lake House. I could go on and on about this movie. It's the best movie that I have seen in the longest time. One of those movies with the sappy happy ending that you really don't mind crying over and that you're secretly (or not so secretly as you yell at the tv in between sobs and kleenex grabs) hoping for. I started to tear up. Seriously.

And...diamond earrings. BooYa! Beeches!!

Oh and he got a PSP :P. I spent literally all day yesterday playing WOW and needless to say he was a bit pissy when he went to bed last night. I tucked him in (I know, awww) and then came back to the game and said to my guild, "My hubby's a lil pissy because I've been playing all day. I promised I wouldn't play tomorrow but I got him a psp for Christmas so I think it'll be ok."

Yah...it is lol

So, I bid you a fond farewell and a joyous day as I head off to WOWland while the psp sings and blips and whirrrs behind me.
