Anyhoo...Antwaan gets back on Wednesday night -- just in time for the Yankee Swap that he's organized. It should be tons of fun. I never thought that shopping for a Yankee Swap gift would be so difficult, though. Today after work, I stopped by Pentagon City to look for something. I thought, heck...it shouldn't take me more than an hour, right? WRONG-O. I was there for like 2.5 hours, rummaging through every store. I guess part of the reason why it's so tough for me is that I know everyone at the swap will bring something really clever and/or hilarious. Everyone is so witty and dry and sarcastically funny, and I know that will translate into absurdly awesome gifts. And I don't want to be the one to disappoint.
There were so many ideas that I decided against. Harry Potter action figures? Meh, too obvious. High School Musical 2 Calendar? Not ridiculous enough. The new Jordin Sparks CD, since she needs all the help she can get after having the dubious distinction of being the lowest first-week selling Idol winner of all time? Ugh, booooring.
After some more thought (and almost buying the Soulja Boy album for the swap, since pretty much all of us tried to do the dance at Michelle's birfday bash last weekend), I finally settled on something. I like it. :) I mean, I would keep it for myself...srsly. Will the others want it? Probably not, but I'm pretty sure they'll get a good chortle out of it. (I like the word chortle. It's so funny!)
Ok, it is waaay past this gramp's bedtime, so I'mma hit the sack. Oh, I almost forgot a song! Let's see...
Mmm, got it. Anthony, this one is for you, mister. ;)
