Re: Gift Thread: Lifelong wish fulfilled today!
I think my most memorable gift I ever got was for Christmas when I was about 10? My mom was working a temp agency job for like...I forget how long, but it seemed like forever. Dad was working nights at the time, so he was there with us (my brother and I were homeschooled) so we were being watched and all, but it was the first time we'd been without Mom for that long and none of us were particularly happy--Mom included, since all of her coworkers that weren't temps were lazy asses that didn't get any work done.
Anyway, at the time my brother and I had shared a Gameboy since I was about 6, but that was all we got. My mom hated video games, so she wouldn't let a console in the house no matter how much my brother and I wanted one, except for the rare times that my brother and I would save up to rent out a Sega Genesis from a local Hastings for a week so we could play Sonic and Power Rangers on there.
Anyway, we open all of our presents and we get some really nice stuff and we're happy. Then we open one final small gift that had "accidentally" been hidden behind the tree. We opened it and...it was a Nintendo64 game, Crusin' USA.
Me: Huh? ...We can't play this.
Dad: What? That's not a Gameboy game?
Me and brother: No...that's N64.
Dad: Oh, whoops.
Mom: Wait, we forgot a gift, didn't we?
Dad: Oh yeah, it's in the closet!
So Dad comes out of their bedroom with a HUGE box, and my brother and I are going "OH no way" but then we opened it and saw the Nintendo logo and just completely lost it.
Then I realized that my Mom had been working that temp job so that they could afford to get us the Nintendo64. The realization that my Mom had been working so hard to get us a gift she knew we'd love even though she didn't like video games hit me so hard I burst into tears.
So yeah, best gift ever. Ever.
