Lounging By The Beach - Part 5

[Stoneface]

LOL Stoney ... sounds like you might have a chatty girlfriend.

LOL Nope, and I don't want one neither!!

 

[jj2]

Soooo…. anybody got any ideas of what to get an 18 y.o. boy?? Besides money.

Just remember he'll want something bigger and better next year!

 

[tgcrna]

Get him a gift certificate to Game Stop or Best buy and let him pick something out himself....unless you don't want to encourage the gaming, that is

We really would like for him to get off of the games and find some other interests! But, we have wanted that for years and it hasn't happened yet. We usually do get him a couple of games for his Xbox.

 

[jj2]

Wow! They go to bed EARLY!!!

Yes they do but it's my alone time.

I hate the keyboard on my laptop!!!!!!!!!!8-o

 

[100%VG]

We got a set of them but rarely use them. The good thing about us both with hearing loss.

I didn't know. That's one more thing we have in common.

 

[tgcrna]

Then maybe it has to be an 18 year old girl with a great collection of new games that he wants.

Yes! That would probably make him happy, LOL.

How about a Qigong or other marial arts instructional DVD?

How about some movies on DVD?? Do you know what music he likes?

Yes they do but it's my alone time.

Alone time at the end of the day is great for decompressing

Well there is money in making the games!!!

I know. The keys aren't raised enough. I often carry a USB Keyboard for my laptop, but you prolly had space considerations for the flight.

How about a Qigong or other marial arts instructional DVD?

He took Hapkido lessons for a little while. And we have offered to pay for him to have more lessons. But he is too much of a homebody to go take lessons Maybe a video would be a good idea… he wouldn't have to leave the house

I don't vape in front of my GD so I have to disappear to the bedroom and have quiet time in the afternoon too.

 

[Seabrook]

Oh...hello Stone and JJ who are now here!

I can't rememeber if I said hi or not, Starry - HI!

And what a day!!!

Now everyone but me is in bed.

Heya jj ... hope the weather isn't too awful ... you're still away from home, right?

 

[Stoneface]

Funny, I like my laptop keyboard best....

 

[Seabrook]

That's a reason I'd want them... for my hearing loss. I had headphones connected to my PC for a while when I watched things like uTube or a DVD, but I stopped doing it. I had a Parakeet that I didn't want to freak out because I play the sound so loud. I'm by myself, except for Cadeau, and she's usually in another room anyway, but doesn't seem to mind. She still comes in for attention anyway. But a cordless headset would be nice.

And another thing ... you can sing along to a song and not be able to hear yourself.

Since he's a homebody, how about something cool for his room or the space he hangs out in??

I keep hitting the caps lock and have to watch where my fingers go!

Yep Head home Tuesday.

It warmer here than in Illinois but it's also unseasonable cold here!!!

 

[Seabrook]

Yes! The TV can be at a normal volume. Or even muted.

I sound like I am doing a commercial for TV Ears

 

[tgcrna]

How about some movies on DVD?? Do you know what music he likes?

He likes this weird orchestral techno music I've never, ever heard of it except when he plays his iPod when he is driving and I'm a passenger.

Well there is money in making the games!!!

We have TRIED to tell him this!!! And our local community college even has courses in it!!
