I just found out that Dad bought me a digital camera for Christmas. He had no idea Mom had already bought me one. See he usually give me about $50 for Christmas every year but instead this time he evidently say the same RadioShack salespaper I did, saw one for about $50 about bought it for me.
On the very same day Mom bought me the one I personally picked out. I went in the store with her and everything to make sure she got the right one, lol. So evidently Dad figured instead of giving me my usual $50 he'd get me the camera instead which was just about $50 itself (about June or July he bought his over to show me and saw how big a fit I threw of it and thus why he decided on getting me one for Christmas)
So for some reason Mom got the suspicion that he had possibly bought me one for Christmas and called him up and told him that she had already bought me one (in total it cost about $140; that's $10 for a memory card, $20 for a Polaroid Pogo printer which was originally $60 but it came with a $40 instant rebate and she ended up paying only $20 for it which she'll get back in another rebate. And add taxes on top of that) and it was one I had specifically chosen and so Dad is gonna have to end up taking his back or else I'll end up with 2 digital cameras! LOL.
He figures now that if he can take it back in time he'll give me the money from that but I wouldn't say now to a photo album for the pics I'll take with it, or better yet a camera case with room for the camera plus various accessories.
For the first time he'd actually bought me a cool gift for Christmas, on his time in the first time of EVER and he has to take it back. Man I'd feel bad if in some small way it wasn't funny. Gah! I have no idea what to buy him for Christmas now (not like I had a whole lot of ideas in the first place!
I'm so not fraking kidding!
