We were at the mall Saturday and my SO said he got me something, and I'm going to be very happy. I feel bad, I have not been able to think of anything for him yet. I could use some help and ideas.
He loves music and loves to organize his music. He has over 50,000 songs, he has downloaded and catagorized them all on iTunes on the PC. Is there something better? Other than music I am stuck, I feel like I have writers block in the gift giving area. I don't typically spend a lot, I'd rather do something personal or meaningful, but seriously I'm lost this year!
What is everyone else doing, if anything, for their SOs?
We work out in our basement and like to listen to music while we do so. My husband wired some speakers down there to play off the stereo in the living room, but if the kids are using the television we can't have music. He has been complaining about that, so I got him a wireless stereo speaker that goes with our phones. He just has to open Pandora on his phone and it'll play on the speaker. It has really nice sound (at least to my ears), and it can also be used for conference calls or as a speaker phone. Both of us work from home at times, so it will be useful.
That's his main present, plus I got some other odds and ends.

Nice idea!
We do enjoy bike riding a lot. And he loves to listen to his iPod while riding. Maybe there is someway I can improve, upgrade his iPod and get one made more for sports/activity.
Would he like an upgrade on his ear buds for his ipod? I'm upgrading mine to a pair of Klipsch, great sound and they stay put unlike the ones that come with the ipod and keep slipping out of my ears. Best Buy carries them.
No, I'm not getting anything for my GF on Christmas and she doesn't want to give me anything either. If one of us has a great gift idea, fine, but it has nothing to do with Christmas. We give each others gifts all year long. We don't have to wait for Christmas, which we don't really like.
I bought him a Raven's hoodie, some dress clothes for work, and the "Ultimate Bacon Lover's Gift Pack" hahaha. I also have a book for him on sports science that I think he'll love. Plus a bunch of random stocking stuffers--cheap blu rays and dvds from black Friday, favorite candy, etc.
He gave me permission to have family photos taken as my gift. We got dressed up and took our dog down to the park and had a photographer photograph us. They turned out great and I'm excited to hang 'em up.
So far, my DH is getting the usual...underwear, socks, a couple pair of shorts & 3 hawaiian shirts. He won't buy clothes for himself, so I re-stock his wardrobe at Christmas.
For goodies, he's getting an assortment of tablet sized candy bars, and a box of See's. Our daughter bought him some car seat covers and a car wash kit.
