So, what the heck was on all of your Christmas lists this year? Me, seeing how having a wife, kids, bills, a mortgage, etc. to take care of, the frugal days of old are gone, so my Christmas list is typically a collection of all the CD's and such I missed during the year. I know, my wife, mom and mother-in-law always give me the typical "boring" look when they see it but hey, I just can't go out like I used to and drop 15 bucks on a CD freely anymore! Damn responsibilities! They always give me the lines like "Don't you want something for the house?" or the famous "How about some new work shoes or dress pants for work?" My typical response to that is of I need a new pair of pants or shoes or I need something for the house I just go out and get them, those are needs that are budgeted in! In my opinion a Christmas list is about all those guilty little pleasures, all the "wants" that I missed out on in the last year.
Anyway, since I really have nothing else better to do today here is an exclusive inside look at exactly what the sports dude asked for this Christmas. I know, none of you really give two shits but hey, it is my blog damn it, I will type whatever the hell I want!
CD's - in no particular order:
Santana "All That I Am"
Fiona Apple "Extraordinary Machine"
Nickelback "All The Right Reasons"
Our Lady Peace "Healthy In Paranoid Times"
Garbage "Bleed Like Me"
Gretchen Wilson "All Jacked Up"
Sheryl Crow - "Wildflowers"
Better Than Ezra - "Before the Robots" & "Closer"
David Gray - "Life in Slow Motion"
Faith Hill - "Fireflies"
Jason Mraz - "Mr. A to Z"
And, of course, a repeat gift every year, the current versions of "Madden" and "Tiger Woods Golf" for the good old PS2.
There you go, now that I have bored you to death I can again say Merry Christmas and I will let you all know next week how I did on Christmas myself. Peace out, go Pistons and have a safe and merry and jolly one! Godspeed - the sports dude.
