I gotta start my Christmas shopping

[RecycleMichael]

I just got home after being stuck unable to fly home because of weather. I need to buy all my gifts in the next three hours.

I plan to do my shopping at Quik-Trip.

Most of my friends drink beer, they have lottery tickets for grandma, funny cassettes and selected OU memorabilia for the kids and an ice scraper for dear old dad.

My problem is what to get for the wife. I was thinking magazines, a frozen drink and maybe a taquito, but don't know which magazines to select.

Any hints out there?

At least the QT has some doghouse roses. You'll need 'em, RM.

I seem to remember you shopping at QT last year...

Wal-mart was still open, I was there (helping someone else last minute shop)

I have a hall closet we refer to as "the prize closet" we buy unique stuff year-round, and then hit up the closet every gift giving occasion.

I was amazed at the selection at my locally owned convenience store chain.

I went with a pair of soft gloves, a tree-shaped air-freshener, a wild-cherry fruit smoothie and two of the big bags of jerky.

It just felt like I should step it up a little for Christmas so I skipped the taquito.

My mother-in-law won a dollar and two free tickets on her four scratch-offs. We cashed in the free ones, won another dollar and spent the winnings on ice cream sandwiches.

I just want to say that I am thankful to live in a community that offers me so many Quik-Trips. I could buy almost everything there except for a partridge in a pear tree.
