[QUOTE=nashiitashii] My SO and I already “exchanged” gifts. We’re low on funds right now, so I got him a six pack of tabi socks and he got me a brick of [Caca Marron Mama](http://usa.lush.com/cgi-bin/lushdb/679?expand=Haircare) from LUSH. I’ve got redder hair, and he’s got warm toes that can still wear flip flops. [/QUOTE] Yeah, but he pawned his flip-flops to get the hair stuff, and you sold your hair to get the socks… Merry Christmas Si ---

My husband is hard to buy for when we are broke. That being said, I got him an inversion table. His back hurts a lot and I thought it would help, and he gets to flip over. I wasn’t sure if he’d like it. I was watching a show called “Surviving Urban Disasters” and there was a commercial for an inversion table. So of course, I made him watch it. When the commercial came on he watched it and said “Mmmmm…inversion!” So I think I made the right choice. He’s also getting Spongebob sheets. ---

Count me in as another of the “my SO is a Doper” crowd. **Alistair McCello** may not post much, but I do know he has a habit of stalking me and my posts rather frequently. Therefore, I am now going to annoy him by providing obscure hints as to what I’m getting him. It’s not red. It was purchased about a hundred feet away from the Grand Traverse Bay. Annnnd… it would be advisable _not_ to eat it. 😃 ---

SO is also a Doper… besides that, I have no freakin idea what to get him for Christmas. I did give him one _special_ xmas gift for the both of us (ornament for the tree) when he decided it was time to decorate the tree. ---

I got him a book that he commented when we were out for the night a month or so ago. I’m so nervous if he’s going to like it. We haven’t discussed if we’re trading gifts, but I just hope he likes it. It’s an art book, and he said he owns 90% of what’s in the book in various forms, but not all together… EEP! We’ve been together for a few months now\*. \*Holy shite, I met him 6 months ago on saturday!!!
