Birthday party

It is my birthday today. (Technically yesterday at this moment.) I wanted to buy myself a present, but Best Buy has chosen to thwart me. I went in looking for something, but there was nothing. No DVDs that looked good. No games that I could justify without already playing the ones I have. Nothing that had a pressing need to be purchased.
They drove the final nail in the coffin when they started playing a Christmas carol. I fled.
I had an idea to buy the final book in the Sword of Truth series. But I couldn’t find that where I usually buy them from.
So, no presents for myself.
My friends were great and I got two from them. A box of chocolates, and another book I wanted to read. Still, I would have liked to get myself something bigger.
