prunesquallormd3 days to go to Christmas and I still have to get something for my brother and my sister-in-law. I even went so far as to ask her what she might fancy, to which she responded, 'oh, you know, a book or a CD'. Which is the single most useless suggestion ever because I've known her for a decade and a half and I've always got her a book or a CD. It's basically what I do with anyone (although obviously, it's far easier to get presents for people I know well, and actually like). I thought about the new Norah Jones CD for her, because it strikes me as being suitably middle of the road, but reading the reviews it seems to be about the collapse of a relationship, and given the not entirely happy state of their marriage it might not be the most thoughtful present. Bugger.
I don't know. Micheal Bubble maybe? That's about as middle of the road as you can get. (Hell, it's a shame that Coldplay doesn't have a new album out. That'd be perfect). Or I could go the other way and buy her a Slayer or a Napalm Death CD. That'd teach her to be more specific.
Oh well, sitting here isn't going to get it done. God it's horrible outside. Wish me luck (and if anyone has any suggestions, that'd be good too).
Happy Christmas, all.

Date: 2009-12-22 10:26 pm (UTC)What an ace Christmas present :) I've got a CD of the year to put up but most of the tracks are on my housemate's laptop (she let me share it for a year while I was too poor to buy a new one) and she's ill at her mum's so can't do it! But I will after Christmas :)
Hope your sister likes the Buble. My sisters like hardcore so they'd have a fit if I bought them that... hmm *has evil plan thoughts*
Oh, Kaya! Have a Meg one that I just made for the lulz.
<3 <3

Is your flatmate still suffering from laryngitis? Poor thing. That sucks :(
I'm looking forward to hearing your mix. I'm gonna try and get something together before I go home for Christmas. I'm afraid people won't like it, but hey :)
I won't have a cover for it cos I have no photoshop skills, but it could be fun.
She's my sister-in-law rather than my sister. I did always want a sister, but I'm afraid I don't get on with her :(. I hope she likes it too. We'll see :)
(Maybe I could have got her some hardcore, and you could get your sisters some Michael Buble and John Barrowman ;D)
