But the motherload of all things?
Despicable Me. For real. I saw it, loved it, and it was amazing. I want my own little set of minions one day, I swear.
I'm so excited about Christmas, but so not... I'm very excited about my list, but I'm really bummed about Mike's Christmas gift. First, he got a super awesome birthday present just a few weeks ago (an Ipod Nano), but the condition was that I was spending twice as much as budgetted, so his Christmas gift would be (lots) smaller. So it's sad already. But then? He tells me he wants this really nice thing from where he works that costs over my limit BUT if HE buys it, he can use his employee discount and it's NOT over budget... So he got that. For himself. So now I have a grand total of $15 to spend on him on something that will surprise him. I'm at a loss. Help?
Other than that, more things to come! Including a beautiful hand-knit scarf that I just so happened to make for my mother. For her birthday. It's a nice and easy pattern that looks like it's not.
What's on your list this year?

Go with something sentimental...a memory book/scrapbook/ keepsake book...a book of things that make you think of him.
Or maybe like a package for a "romantic evening" with all the little things inside. A tiny bottle of champagne, a movie (or $5 blockbuster gift card), massage oils...whatever you guys would enjoy together!
