As I mentioned in my previous post, I finally got my sister a Christmas present today. Target had simple, long-sleeved T-shirts on sale for $5 a piece. I wanted to get her something better or at least more interesting than several shirts, but my sister isn't exactly the easiest person to shop for. While she makes a Christmas list every year, she always leaves off several must-have items. Then on Christmas morning, she pouts as she asks us where those items are. Our answer is usually along the lines of, "Uh, they're at the store. We didn't know you wanted them." She, in turn, usually says something sarcastic back that makes us think that she wants us to be able to read her mind. Now I'll admit that I have wished for superpowers from time to time, but reading my sister's mind has never been one of them.While I was walking through the parking lot towards Target, I thought for a moment, "I wonder if Tina needs a watch." That thought, however, quickly disappeared from my mind once I walked inside the store. There were already so many people in the store that all I could think of from that moment forward was, "Get the shirts and get out. No browsing allowed."
In retrospect, I realize that the watch would have probably been a safer bet than the shirts. I got myself two of the shirts as well, and, due to the Lycra in them, they're a little snug. I don't know if Tina is going to like that snug of a fit. She's fickle when it comes to clothes. Actually, she's fickle about pretty much everything these days. Consequently, I'm scared that she's going to try the shirts on Christmas morning, decide that they're too tight, take them off, and throw them at me. I doubt that she would pitch a nice watch at my head with the same amount of gusto.

Just remember that pretty much everyone over the age of five needs to be able to keep track of time. Thus, watches will always be a safe, welcomed gift at Christmas time. Trust me. If I had the energy and the money to do my Christmas shopping all over again, I would have bought a watch for every last one of my family members, even the dogs. Hey, I guess there is always next year.
