For me it was always, what do you want for Christmas? How about a computer chair (because she didn't like the chair I used, it was one you knelt on kind of like this.
I would say absolutely not, I love my chair. And she would get me a computer chair for Christmas.
Same thing happened with my graduation. She got my brother a watch a couple years before when he graduated, told her absolutely don't get me a watch I never wear them as they always bothered my wrist. (I sweat and run hot, and we lived in Florida, which means it's always 100% humidity). I of course got a watch for Graduation. I took it to get sized 7 years later, wore it home from the place that sized it put it in a drawer and the battery died god knows when after that, but long before I ever went to wear it, I just saw it was dead when I had to move it to another house. So now I carry a dead watch from place to place and I doubt it's worth anything as it was engraved on the inside, so I doubt you could even pawn in.
