A Christmas story to warm everyone's hearts

[missnickers]

It was December 21st of this year. 6:04PM. A hot and moist night - what some might refer to as ‘humid’. But not me. I like to use the term ‘sultry’. So, anyway, the night was sultry. Damned sultry. It had been raining all day. I was at the mall and I was on a mission: I needed to get my mother’s Xmas present and I needed to get it fast. Xmas was

It was December 28th of this year. 6:04PM. A hot and moist night - what some might refer to as ‘humid’.

What I find the most aggravating about this situation is that you went all the way into the future to get this thoughtful gift. That flux capacitor has its uses, but it leaves little room for Christmas gifts in the back. :( I know, I know, I'm a smartass.

OMG though. Seriously, what a pain in the ass!! You are the best daughter ever, no doubt about it. All things considered, you handled it very well. I would have thrown an absolute tantrum and probably hurt someone! LOL. I guess in the meantime you will just have to massage your mom's legs by hand.

ROTFL! I know, I'm just *that* good! WTF was I smoking to write the 28th?! But now you know why I was time was a factor in getting this gift! XP And, actually, smartassness is a turn on, so don't worry about it. ;)

Actually the only person I ended up hurting was myself, when I snagged my fingernail on the seatbelt thingy of my mom's car and ripped half of it off. :( Not a fan of bleeding and pain, no sir.

"I guess in the meantime you will just have to massage your mom's legs by hand."

That's kinda creepy.. it's my MOM. I love her dearly, but we haven't reached that phase in our relationship yet.

*takes notes*

Smartassness- YES
Bleeding and pain- NO

Gotcha.

I love her dearly, but we haven't reached that phase in our relationship yet.

So you're tellin' me I still have a chance? Whew! I was worried about the competition. :p

[missnickers]

Oh, you totally have a shot. My mom is hot and all, but she's not my type. She's too much like me. Plus, I could never date someone shorter than me. I like the tallies, you know that. And, y'know, she seems to be attached to this other dude who lives with her. I call him dad. He has a mustache. :P

I was so mad and frustrated that I actually sat down on the box and started crying.

I almost started crying when I read this part. :( I'm sorry you had such a rotten time with this gift purchase.

Awww, thanks for the sympathy. :) I guess when buying gifts, it's the journey that counts, right? My mom was touched to know the lengths I went to for her, at least.

[timewanderer]

You're the best daughter a mom could ever have. :)

Maybe you should just return it now as defective and go back another time to replace it. Just get it in writing that you want to be able to get it at the same price as you bought it for in the first place.

[missnickers]

Oh now you're just kissing up! Keep going, keep going... ;)

Actually, that's sort of what we're planning. We talked to one of the managers, who said they'd *most likely* get more in soon. So since we used that coupon, we were just going to keep checking back and exchange it whenever they got more in. But if they don't get any in within a month, we're just getting the money back and getting one somewhere else... I'm tired of fighting it at this point!

Man, I feel inadequet now with my gift shopping -- I didn't go to those lengths for anyone!

Dear God, how large was this thing, anyway???

"WHY YOU GOTTA WASTE MY FLAVA! DAMN!" XD

Remember that box of toilet paper I had to lug around at the state fair? http://www.kristensheley.com/statefair2005/nicolesbooty.jpg
It was BIGGER and HEAVIER than that! And then, when I got it home, I pushed it around on the carpet and chased homer with it, hehe. You should have seen me attempt to wrapt it! That was comedy.

[foxywriter]

Did you have Homer in the room as you were trying to wrap? I can def see that as being comedic....

I can't wrap my brain around how large this thing must've been, heh. I'm curious now about seeing the box!

Hmmmm. Am I going to have to write another poem? "Ode to the Leg Massager Woman"?

Dude!

[anonymoose_au]

A belated Merry Christmas to you! And much sympathies regarding the breaking of the Christmas gift! That must have sucked hardcore! I would have picked up the thing and thrown it out the window...

"Moose SMASH!"

I too am fond of the term sultry...it's a good term, it was pretty damn sultry on Christmas here and it's going to be even more sultry on New Years Day (100 degrees F!)

But yeah, it's nice you went to all that trouble to get the gift your mother wanted and I hope it all works out! :OD

Re: Dude!

[missnickers]

ROTFL! Now now, smashing wouldn't fix anything. Although it would have made me feel good... Actually I grabbed the box by its fat head and said, "Look, I'm not going to jail for YOU or ANYBODY!" But I don't think the box cared.

Dude, Sims 2 University FINALLY came out for Mac! Any tips/neat tricks?!5 I also got the FG season 4 DVD set for Xmas - and there's scenes on there that were NOT there when it was aired on Fox!! :-O I was up all night listening to the commentary on Xmas... that's how exciting my life is. XP

[rayluxuryacht]

Wow. You are an exceptional daughter. I would say you earned your spot in heaven right there, but it was already a lock anyway. But have some cookies and a Diet Pepsi on me for the ordeal all the same.

And you're getting jiggy to Bukkake Chef? ;) Hehe. I don't know, I don't care for that show much myself. The secret ingredient is always the same.
