Agreed... I'm pretty horrible at buying gifts. I was thinking about making her a picture from from some macaroni I glued to a piece of paper with a picture of me in the middle. That always worked when I was a kid... You did give me an idea though. I'll see if I can't find something to do with her favorite hobby.siciliano732 wrote:

you gotta figure out things she enjoys or is passionate about....for example...my girlfriend loves Van Goh or however you spell it and Michaelangelo or however you spell that....so i did stuff for her concerning that, like books on it and stuff....
...it also helps my girl if very content and not spoiled with me...despite her parents combined income.

i'm 28 and i'm getting a evga 7900gt. newegg is all out and i'm ordering tonight from tigerdirect for $219.00 w/ $20 rebate. not bad at all as that price is lower than what newegg was asking when they had it. i'm also buying myself a Hiper 580 watt power supply and another gb of patriot pc3200 2-3-2-5 ram. bf2 will be smoking in less than a month. my wife wants a book and i'll have to think of some other things to get her. she's kinda of scrooge when it comes to spending money and buying gifts.
LOL...thats kinda funny....my girlfriend is pretty wealthy so present holidays for me are sweet but, she is very chill when it comes to presents...as long as i am showing her i love her....theknuck wrote:

and hey man...think about it...with a wife like that...you dont have to worry about debt and crap...lol.
exactly, she's actually got me on a budget (that's why my upgrade has taken me 6 months!). if it wasn't for her i'd be in debt up to my eyeballs. right now we have no credit card debt and paid off one of our 5-year car loans in 2 1/2 years. she likes those suze orman shows and dave ramsey talk shows. big geek, but i'm thankful.siciliano732 wrote:

High speed digital camera. Aspiring photographer right here.
I'm hoping for a nice digital camera too, most likely Panasonic FZ-7 since I doubt I'll get a DSLR.MorbiD.ShoT wrote:
