Savoring every little 'byte' the world wide web has to offer
My daughter plays games like Halo, Call of Duty, Gears of War, etc., for the Xbox 360. You may know that Call of Duty: Black Ops came out on the 9th of this month. My daughter's been itchin' to get it. I had every intention on this game being one of her Christmas gifts this year.
I've bought a few Christmas presents here and there, but nothing really big until this week. I needed to get some ideas on what to get for my nine year old this year. So I took him on a quick window shopping trip with me. I asked him to take a look around and make a mental note of everything he wanted this year, then for him to write it all down once we got home. I got some pretty good ideas, but I also found myself asking how much is too much to spend on Christmas gifts?
Well, I hope you didn't come here expecting to see some sappy post about how I wish the world were a better place to live in. Do I wish for a better world? One that we can all live in harmony and peace? Do I wish to live in a world without diseases or hunger or discrimination toward race, religion, sexual preference, or gender? Of course I do! But you won't find any kind of advice or story about that here. Nope.
Yesterday, was my daughters first Black Friday as a shopper with her own earned money to spend. And the first time she realized what Black Friday was all about. She wanted to go out and how could I say no to that? A whole day spent shopping with my only daughter. What was supposed to be a lot of fun, ended up in a loss of my daughters wallet.
