It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like......

Christmas?  I was shopping today, and of course the Christmas decorations are up and the carols are playing.  I know, they have to do it for the sake of business, but it's just too weird to be listened to Jingle Bells and White Christmas when it's 66 degrees outside (here in the Northeast!).  Next Santa will be showing up to take the kids trick-or-treating.

And all this means I have to start thinking about gift shopping.  It's not the money that's so much of a problem, it's coming up with ideas!  Especially when you're buying for kids. Why are all the "hot new gift ideas" always so freakin' expensive?  Can't anyone invent a reasonably priced electronic toy?  Hmmm, maybe I should give it a try. :)
