Living with the Grinch

Every year Brendon does this to me, he ruins the gift that I bought him for Christmas. This year he's been wanting to get all the dvds of the British tv-series The Black Adder. Since I've known him he raves about this program. I sat and watched it once with him and just about died from lack of comedy. I just don't get British humor. That will be the American in me I know.

Anyway, he has the 1st 3 series and when he bought the last one I said no more, Christmas is coming. 2 weeks ago I found the 4th so I got it and hid it away. Today we go to the Warehouse and he heads straight to the damn dvds. By the time I got caught up to him he had it in his hand. "You're not getting that!" I said. "Why not?" he says. "Because we don't have the money and it's too close to Christmas". He tosses it in the shopping cart anyway. I pulled it back out and said "NO!" He then figures out..."Oh, you bought it for me already for Christmas!" Men sure know how to screw up Christmas!
