Oh my goodness. The pressure! Will I be pithy? funny? amusing? entertaining? None of the above?
Today let's talk about buying men gifts. Specifically my brother in law. For starters, the man lives across the country. So it's not like I know his daily habits. Would he enjoy a Starb*cks card, or is he in a committed relationship with a local coffeehouse? [OK, even knowing my brother in law just a little I think he's more likely to be a pot of coffee at home kind of guy instead of mingling with some hippie-coffee-roasting commmies. But really, what do I know?] Well, I do know that my BIL likes to hunt. Would sending a gun across the country send the wrong message? "Hey! Happy Birthday! Don't pull a Dick Cheney on my sister, ok?!" And is the correct terminology actually a gun? Or is it a rifle? Shotgun?
So no gun. Or Starb*cks. Which leaves me to my backup plan: ask my sister what to get. Per her advice my BIL is getting a Target gift card.
Who knows, maybe he'll buy a rifle.
About Me
- Juice
- I love Jesus and chocolate chip cookies, but sometimes I spend too much time with one and not enough time with the other. I also love football, singing in my band, making lists (OCD anyone?), reading, playing with my dog, and living in the city. I dislike bugs in my house, discussing politics, the fact that my family lives so far away, and thinking about things I dislike.
I know I am always happy with a Target gift card :-)
