I got a bag of Macadamias and some fur lined slippers. Well, there's always my birthday....
This is precisely the answer. It's kind of one of my big philosophies in life. After being disappointed in some way by damn near everyone I ever loved or cared about, I long ago decided that it was prudent to ONLY count on myself.I asked for a 1500 Laramie. Don't see it in the driveway. This is why I always buy my own goddamn gifts.

A line from a Queen song sums it up succinctly. " All through the years in the end it appears there was never really anyone but me."
That, and everything I like is expensive and I do not expect anyone to buy it for me.
I learned long ago to keep my expectations extremely low, in fact...I don't really have any anymore. Always formulating Plan B, Plan C, etc. That way, if someone does something for me, it's a pleasant surprise and is truly appreciated.This is precisely the answer.

As I type this I am sitting here with Phoebe and Jeff ( the kitties) and watching the birds and squirrels out back. The wonder twins are chasing each other around my weather vane. There are numerous squirrels who call my yard home, but these two are always together and always chasing each other around. Until the hawks hit the treetops overlooking the river. Then everyone hides.I’m gonna be that guy. Christmas is my absolute favorite day of the year. It’s the one day where my wife and I just revel in the day with our pets. If I have that I can’t be disappointed.
I wish you all peace, love and prosperity. Merry Christmas. Simon

Ah, Krampas gear!In the Christmas spirit of love, peace and harmony my wife pointed out that “all those guns and ammo aren’t going to last forever when the zombie apocalypse comes.” Merry Christmas.
