My mom has been bugging me as she likes to buy stuff months in advance. I'm the last present on her list.
Any ideas?

Oh, I guess you're right. I mean, you do always have your brothers and me should you ever have the urge .... um, I think the plane tickets idea is the best one, then. Just ask for an open ended ticket ... this way you can take a "spontaneous" long weekend that wouldn't normally make sense financially --- but it would be wonderful and you'd have your mom to thank for it. Lovely.

Not a horrible idea BUT... there's nowhere I really want to fly in the $200 range.
Detroit?
Cleveland?
Little Rock?
I got no peeps there.
Is there something that would have made PDF/EJC things more fun?
I could always fall back on a digital camera I guess.

They could always get you a $200 voucher for a flight on a specific airline. That way, you could use it to discount whatever flight you chose on X airline.

True... except my dad is gonna whine about giving me that for Xmas. It's not so much fun to unwrap.
I know, I'm being difficult.

or you can ask them to go in with you on the purchase of a miniDV ... that way there'll be three of us in NY with them, and we can make some REALLY awesome videos!
