All He Wants For Christmas

Thanks for finally posting and making me come up with a topic. Oh oops that sounded more like a complaint than a thanks... but I guess that's sort of how I meant it. Heh. I'm so transparent.

I do have a topic though, and I need your help. (See title of this post-- doesn't it sound like one of those porny category romance novels I love so much? Note to self: write a porny category romance called All He Wants For Christmas... or read it if it already exists.)

I have been Christmas shopping and have bought at least one thing for every female on my list, but nothing for the many men I have to shop for. See, women are easy. Get us a sweater or earrings or a pretty dish and we're happy as we can be.

But men? They either don't have any hobbies, have hobbies that are so expensive you can't buy them any hobby accessories, buy everything they want as soon as they want it so there's nothing left on your list to buy them, or are just plain difficult to shop for. Oh if only we could buy a man a pair of earrings and be done with it, but no.

So, fair blog readers, I need your help: What are some good go-to gifts for guys? What do guys really want for Christmas? (And I'm thinking of guys other than my husband, so please don't go "there.") Thanks!

Ty likes cigars, beer, liquor, and nice coffee. I usually get him something from one of those categories. He's pretty happy about it.

I think event tickets or magazine subscriptions are nice. Also a gift card enclosed in something cute like a humorous book. I'm not big on STUFF for presents of late.

Good suggestions, thanks. I made Robbie take me shopping yesterday and point out guy stuff, so I made a dent.
