Target can be a dangerous…
… and its just not the name.
I was in there the other day Christmas shopping, of all things. But the circumstances were dangerous to start. First, I was going into the toy section. Specifically the Lego section. And, due to the size of the things I was picking up, I needed a cart. Why is this dangerous? Because I was going into my favorite place with a nearly unlimited carrying capacity. Normally, when I shop in the toy aisle, I’m protected by the limitation of what I can carry. No such luck this time. So, I walked out of target with more than just the *ITEM REMOVED TO PROTECT PRESENTS* I went in for. But at least what I got was on clearance.
So that means Sydney is mostly taken care of. And with Lizzard’s *ITEM REMOVED TO PROTECT PRESENTS* and James’ *ITEM REMOVED TO PROTECT PRESENTS* I’m pretty much done. Still have no clue on the parents.
Oh, and I noticed that other people around the ‘net are posting what they want for Christmas. Some of them have quite extensive lists *coughcoughDoobscoughcough* but mine is really nice and short:
Absolutely nothing.
Yup. That’s it. I’m enough of a capitalist whore all year round that I don’t need people to sponsor my habit. If you really need to spend money for me, give it to the SPCA. The animals need it more than I do. Besides, I need to cut back on stuff - I’m running out of space for it.
In other news:
Lost is still kind of boring, I’m slowly catching up. I keep hearing rumors that somebody dies, and lots of tail section action. Well, still haven’t gotten there.
Smallville just gets better. As does CSI. I’m really digging the NY version of that, there’s lots of geek stuff they use.
Bryan Singer may just save Superman yet. Makes you wonder what other tricks he’s got up his sleeve for this release.
Harry Potter came to down and knocked all the movies I wanted to see out of theaters. I think I’ll rebel by seeing Jarhead and Aeon Flux next week. I think I’ll wait until the new year to see Goblet of Fire - just to reduce the number of kids in the audience.
For those of you keeping up at home, Nighthawk is gonna roll over 8000 miles on my way to DC tomorrow. I’m headed down to NASM to see Space Ship One. Who knows, there might be other perks as well.
