I find boys very hard to shop for. I've probably even had a journal about this before, that's how hard I find it. I just don't get it. It must be so easy to shop for me. Buy me something shiny and pink and I get all excited. What should I buy for *the* boy? I never really went in for the traditional girlfriend gifts of like..colgne..I could try that. He likes different stuff:
-trains
-anime
-snakes (no more snakes)
-dragons
-star wars
-family guy
-south park
-lotr
-brian regan (ooo he just came out with a new DVD right?)
-monty python
-games (Age of Empires/Mythology)

Hmm..yeah. Discuss.

well i understand the cologne thing, it is a little cliche, but i did buy dan some... but it had a message with it, so that sorta lessened the cliche part.

Oh and tickets to see Something Corporate...

Ben is a firm believer in my lack of cooking skills. Even when I had Frest supervising me it didn't help.

Are you kidding? Just buy some kind of electronics or power tools and we're happy.

That's very stereotypical and my boyfriend really isn't like that at all.

yeah, besides, ben would kill himself if he owned any power tools.

This is most likely true. Accidently drill through his eyeball or something.

AGE OF EMPIRES! Every single day Ben becomes my hero. He is the hero i never had as a boy. You could always get him a flaming sun...

thatdarngirl #3.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

He lent it to me..and now I'm obsessed.

forrestina #2 forrestinaOG 2002

ha remember when i was trying to find something for him? it's not easy.

It seems that I can't edit this. Pity. Things that I've bought before:
-AFI tickets
-Cool dragon metal-work thingy
-Stitch toy!
-Edward Scissorhands snow globe
-Hoodie (that is now mine..boys grow too much)
-Stickers/pins
-Posters

Thats kind of the general idea.
