Thoughtful Gifts…for the Ladies: Your Thoughts

My poor girlfriend has a birthday on the 16th of December, so she suffers from the whole “we just got you a combo gift” problem. Personally, I think it’s fine—9 days is just enough time for her to get tired of her first round of gifts before she gets hit with the second wave. Then again, my birthday is in February, which is just far enough apart that it forces full-grade gift giving.

Now I can’t tell you what I’m getting her for her birthday or Christmas because she reads this site, but I can certainly ask you for some ideas of things to buy both practical (we’ve been together five years) and devious (we’ve been together five years).

Soft things are good. Expensive appliances are not. Things that make her think you think she’s smart are good. Creepy lingerie is not.
