So, this is my parent's 30th anniversary.

Getting them a gift is futile. They will complain at length that we shouldn't have gotten them anything, and in the case of a gift card, they never use it. I love them, but they drive me mad.

I had all kinds of great ideas, but no. It's just really not worth the aggravation.

This year HorseChaser will go grab the gift card we got them *last* year off the fridge, put it in a new card, get mom some flowers and we'll call it done.

Damn old yankees.

The 29th or 30th I think. I always thought it was the 19th or 20th, but Horsechaser seems to think otherwise.

mm. . .not enough time to make a quilt. . .perhaps an illumination? get bro and sis to buy the frame and you make a pretty of their names and the wedding date? 30 is pearls right? you could use irridescent paper or something. .

collage of all the things going on the year they were married? price of bread/milk, who was president, who won the oscars, major news headlines. . ?

That is some highly evolved regifting right there.

It seems you guys caught a bit of the Olde Yankee from them...

do you think they'll notice?

We are l33t regifters. :)
I'm rather hoping they do, and it shames them into bloody well *using* it!

good old catholic guilt!

Or, if it makes you feel better, call it a gentle reminder!

Shame! SHAME!! I shall land the aircraft carrier of Guilt upon their heads!

They used it on me for long enough. Turn-about is a bitch. :)

This is your gift, this is your gift on GUILT!
