One year I made a list of gift cards I wanted, so I could buy either a computer book or an ink cartridge for my printer. I got a card, but it was from a totally different store from any of the ones on my list. I made the effort to get the right gift as did everyone else, why couldn't this girl? I still could use the card, but was a little disappointed.

Since then, I always put scratch off lottery tickets on my list, at least those are sold 24 hours a day at convenience stores on every other corner practically, so they don't have to make a special trip for me and can even get them at the last minute if they want.

Well it is hard to think of what would make the best gift for me, but a good ink pen with a nib which seems to float over the paper would be nice, I sadly do not have the time or the chance to write much with a real pen. I like to have the right pen and write on the right paper. Sometimes the paper which feels right is not expensive paper but cheap pads, it then feels nice to write. Too much of my writing today is done with a PC or a biro which does not feel the same.

Worst gift I could think of would be a troll ornament.

You have a point there, I have not tried to mark any object yet with the corner of a computer screen or the edge of the keyboard. But I think I could draw letters on a sand beach with bits of computer hardware.
