I’m getting simple in my old age.
Posted on May 10, 2006 by Brian under Toys.
My birthday is in like a month. I have never had this much difficulty deciding what kind of birthday present I want. Normally by now I know exactly what I want and I think I will be satisfied with that decision. However, this year I can not make that decision. I have bounced from a light table for my art work to a new tattoo all the way to a laptop and now down to a new cell phone. While we are on the subject of new cell phones, I used to like cell phones with all the gadgets and gizmos. Today I find myself looking at the simple phones, something to just fulfill my needs. Color display, text messaging and that’s about it. I think I have finally decided that what I truly want is the simple things in life, my wife, my animals and a roof over my head. Anything else is just a bonus! My current decision for my birthday and the one that I have decided that I want the most is a new Nokia 6101 and maybe some gold for my World of Warcraft character (the online game that I am seriously addicted to). Ching told me last night that even she is not this difficult to shop for. I think it’s just my old age.Â

I think the title is a bit of a contradiction. Your taste maybe getting simpler but you are getting more and more difficult to buy for.. and there ain’t nothing simple about that!
