Sadly, I HAVE received a vacuum cleaner for Christmas. Granted, it was a very expensive vacuum cleaner, but, in reality, it did not compare to the year he gave me a package of 12 washcloths, a spatter screen, and a rubber spatula.
He and I have never been really big on gift giving, if there is something that we really need, we get it. But that Christmas I had visions of him frantically running through the K-mart aisle on Christmas Eve just throwing whatever he could lay his hands on into the cart. Really hard to generate enthusiasm over a package of washcloths and a spatter screen. The vacuum cleaner was a little easier.
Hard to believe that I've kept him for thirty years, huh!
