Of course, now that I stormed upstairs, pulled the giant box out from the back of the closet, stomped back downstairs and dumped it on the couch beside him, saying "merry fucking Christmas" the surprise is a bit less, um, festive.

I love you for this. We are kindred souls, I tell you
Well, I say you're off the hook with his gift.
... and the will to show I will always be better than before.

I didn't even see this! Totally something I would have done!
Is Mr. Unlost possibly fucking with you Unlost? Has he actually started playing with it in front of you?
Wow, Jeanwah, that is such a marvelously tempting line, but I will refrain... must refrain... must refrain...
No, he's not. He wouldn't do that, he's really quite sincere. Just short-sighted.
At the end of the day he'll end up keeping the one I bought him, I'm quite certain. I'm not getting him anything else.
I've been doing that a lot lately, with the sexual innuendos. Totally not on purpose! Yet, purposeful...

We have a rule in our family - the only things bought in December are food and other necessities, and we're not even big on Christmas...
I agree, December isn't about buying stuff for yourself.
And I'm with you Unlost, I would have reacted the same way. And I wouldn't get him any accessories for it - he bought it, he's on his own. Is it a guy thing? I don't mean to start a sexist argument here, but I know Christmas usually brings out the worst in my husband - two years ago he gave me a microwave. And we already had a microwave, he thought I'd like a new one. Guess what? He was wrong.

I got a bathroom heater from my husband a couple years ago. When I opened it he says "It's the gift that keeps giving!" Yeah. Uh-huh.

Ouch. A friend of mine almost got whacked over the head with the blender he gave his wife. Fortunately he was able to convince her to look inside where he had put a ring. Maybe you should check the microwaves for jewellry

that is a miracle of crap if you ask me. husband buys wife a microwave for christmas when they already have one... that dude is either very drunk & high all the time or his head is where my location is, it's where my head is. his head up his ass much?

My husband is usually very creative (none of that perfume, candles, soap stuff for me) but he was really really busy two years ago and I have a psychologist friend that says sometimes when men panic about what to get a woman - they choose appliances. My friend said it's actually fairly common.
I'm a little nervous cause he's working again this year thru Christmas Eve. I'm guessing - a toaster?

Ha ha - maybe it's a Snuggie.
I think I can picture The Enkidu Family 2011 Christmas Card... there they all are in their Snuggies! At the littlest Enkidu's (the Enkidulette's?) soccer game, all doing The Wave in their matching Snuggies. In the team's colors, of course.

Snuggies are a great idea for a card - it's funny cause I just addressed a Christmas card to you, as another thank you for the SS gift. It's not Snuggies, but it's pretty funny. We've been doing crazy cards for a long time and another part of that tradition is they come really really late, because we usually take the photo over the Christmas holiday.

An Enkidu card coming my way! Psyched! Or, as we say in Boston, "Wicked psyched!"

I tried to get this for my husband for Christmas - the tiger version. But it's sold out. (It's a joke - I don't know if I can explain it - we were in San Francisco about a month ago and got in an elevator with a man wearing a skintight tiger costume and a studded collar. And there was a man behind the tiger guy holding a leash attached to the collar and he was "blind" and had a white cane. They were very nice, but it was very strange, oh duh.)
I've just read your thread and I'm having a similar moment. But I did not blow up- we were out doing last minute shopping, but I so wanted to. I held in the disappointment of a great gift dashed, but I so wanted to let it out. :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:
lol- I still have a few days to think of something else...maybe

You know it, Unlost dogs! Woof!
I got a bathroom heater from my husband a couple years ago. When I opened it he says "It's the gift that keeps giving!" Yeah. Uh-huh.
LMFAO!! Sorry, but that was funny to me.....

Yes I found work less than 2 weeks after that happened. But I'm looking for work again at the present time. And no, I didn't get fired.
I'm giving a snuggie as a grab bag gift. I understand that I'll probably be the one stuck with it in the end.
:P

Given with utmost sincerity, thinking I would enjoy sitting in our front porch room, wearing my Snuggie and reading a book.
I opened it. Gave him The Look. Put it down beside the couch out there. It's there right now, never moved.
A Snuggie. He must have missed this commercial...
