Well, we just got the Toys'R'Us Biggest toy book ever today, and, you know what that means.

Make a list of what we are planning to get, give.

I'm going to give my parents ~130$. My mom has been giving me $10 every week for lunch, and I've been saving it and starving myself. I've been a dick and haven't given them anything my whole life, I decided to make it good this year. ($~130 is good, right?)

What I'm going to ask for:

Either a Benchmade 42 Balisong: (Normally around $180)

Image

or an MP3 player: (The cheapest one I can find that holds over 5gs)

Image

WITH Dead Space: ($50~)

Image

So I either get knife + Dead Space, or MP3 + Deadspace, or Knife + MP3 + Deadspace, if they want to.

:D

I'm giving my dad 300 dollars, although I kind of do already owe him that much. I'll buy my mom jewelry or something, and I might get my dad Call of Duty 4 since he loved CoD3.

I'm also torn between asking for a MIDI keyboard that I can mount to my VSTs, or to ask for an actual synthesizer with MIDI capabilities. The latter's obviously more expensive but I don't know how much I could get out of it yet.

I remember seeing a 1,400 dollar KARMA Workstation synthesizer at a pawn shop in Chicago for 450 dollars, I might pay about 300 towards that and ask for the rest as a christmas present or something.

Mom; no fing clue, shes so hard to shop for
Dad; Nothing, but my mom will stick my name on something against my will like always...
Brother; Probably Fable 2
Me; I'm thinking a bunch of Steam games, maybe halflife (ye I still haven't gotten/played them yet) garrys mod, bioshock, far cry2, and maybe a few others depending. Oh, and my friend brought the zombie survival guide to school and now I want one :P

I'll probably want a bunch of good games for my PSP.

...but I'll probably end up getting a bunch of clothes instead; it's practically inevitable.

Girlfriend = Giant pink disco ball pinata filled with reeses and snickers and the like. I'm wanting to put in something big too, like a necklace or earrings or 7 coupons good for a hour of sex, no matter the circumstances.

Brother = Wii. He wants one just for Zelda, so why not.

Other Brother = Probably Fallout 3, an extra PS3 controller, and something else.

Dad = I've no idea

Mom = I've no idea

No, lol. These particular Cavaliers are based in Rosemont, Illinois and have nothing to do with basketball.

I'm hoping for a dedicated internet connection in my room, Fallout 3, and The Dark Knight. I'm not hoping for loads this year.
