Christmas presents.
Dec. 10th, 2008 08:10 amWe're getting my dad an Eee PC of some variety for christmas. Mom had to get one after I got mine a year ago (I want a new one, the new ones are so much better than the first-generation one I got... but... it still performs about like it did when I first got it, so I really have no excuse. Damn you, reliable computing machine! I'm having the same issue with my 30gig iPod.)
I sortof wish my brother didn't compulsively hate all things so that we could be a whole trendy family of Eees. But he'd hate it.
In other news: my schedule is totally insane. I will be performing for the first time in many years late in December (
alaskanmermaid's wedding <3<3<3<3<3<3) and then AGAIN in January at the folk festival (probably). That's a little terrifying but I think my voice is in good shape for not being under the care of an instructor at the moment.
Lastly, to everyone out there... I know it's difficult to totally confine your holiday shopping to the mom and pop's in your area... I'm not. The Eee at least will be coming from online or a national chain; but where possible, shop local. It's the best thing for the economy on a large scale and for your community on a smaller one. And damnit, you'll probably meet nicer people, too!
