Ok, so design sponge posted a piece on gifts for guys, and it seems oh so appropriate for me in all my frustration about gifts and what to get at the moment. The problem being, the boy is a lawyer and makes good money and when he wants something he buys it! And I'm a poor research scientist, one that is unemployed at the moment thanks to good ol' California and the budget crisis. So I can't buy everything, ya know? But this is a good guide. I think it's perfectly honest, particularly the gaming portion, which couldn't describe my geek boyfriend better. There have been many times I would have loved to throw that stupid Xbox out the window. The headphones seem like a genius idea...seeing as sometimes I feel like I live in Baghdad, why I even woke up to the sound of machine guns just this morning.
