to the geek who has everything

what the heck are you supposed to get for them if they've purchased most of the reasonably priced wants for themselves already? although we are geeks, there are other things that peak our interests... hockey, rodeos, red bull air races, snowboarding, skydiving, beaches, snow, etc... thing is, i can't narrow down to something i know he'll love and will want to keep.

we searched for presents for eachother 'til Christmas eve. then i had to admit defeat because there was nothing i could find that seemed like a suitable present for him. it's not like i don't know him we've been together for almost a decade already. it's just that i like to be practical.

during my last minute present run on Christmas eve I had a nice chat with ry where i checked to see how his search had been going and he admitted to not being able to find a present either. this is when i began discussing how i miss being able to bake and how a hand mixer would be awesome; that prompted him saying how much he'd love to make ice cream again but would need a mixer as well. EUREKA, we found something for the both of us, we'll buy the handmixer that we've both been wanting as a present to eachother, from eachother. :D
