gurdymonkey....I did manage to get some of the pre-Annapolis Christmas shopping done. Found a few goodies at the ever reliable CostPlus World Market, namely some pretty jewelry cases to put the earrings in that I got for Mom and the girls. I never know what to get Alex, so I settled on some chocolates, as well as some chocolate coins for my piratical nephews.
I think I am going to attempt a trip to the Antiques By The Bay market tomorrow morning. From what Miriam tells me, they're both of an age where odd random stuff is cool. You know, the sort of stuff that you'd keep in a cigar box under your bed when you were a kid. While I hesitate to present something like a pocket knife, interesting buttons or badges, an old compass or something like that might make fun Christmas gifts that are more likely to be treasured than trashed. Besides, it HAS to be better than attempting to storm a Toys R Us full of Christmas shoppers.
