Gifts I have received in the past week:

A box of rubber ducks - about 30 of them.
Several dozen packets of steak seasoning.
Smiley-face pen.
Celebrity perfume samples.
Tickets to see The English Beat (Dave Wakeling is now a chubby football-dad but I still have a crush on him.)
A cup of soda.

Really, who would think to give a person a box of ducks?

Tell me about the oddball things people have given you, just for fun.

DAMN!

Sounds like the week from heaven to me!  I love getting absurd things like those... aside from tickets to E.B., that's not absurd, that's just plain awesome!  >.>  Got a spare? 

EDIT:  Oh, hehe, oddball stuff I got.  Syphilis!  Seriously!  A friend of mine gave me a plushie syphilis microbe!  It's awesome! ( http://www.giantmicrobes.com )

Uhh, A box of Vanilla Wafers, a couple weeks back.  That was pretty damn cool.  A laser pointer, uhm...  OH!  Transformers toys for christmas a couple years back!  That kicked ass. 

I'm required to have birthdays, there is no law or rule that states I have to get 'old'.

I would like to receive a box of ducks. I collect rubber ducks and put them all over the house.

Think of this though - you can make yourself a sparkly quilt with them.

When "the boy's" mother died his sister collected all the loud floral polyester shirts she wore - her daily uniform, and she made several small lap-sized quilts with them so his young sister and nieces could have something very tactile to remember Grandma by.  Emilee was just a toddler but she still remembered how it felt to be hugged by Grandma and feel Grandma's shirts.  Now THAT was a neat gift.

That is pretty cool.  My partner's mom saved all of his t-shirts from the plays he did in high school and everything, and put them together as a big, soft quilt for him as well as his graduation t-shirt, with the names off all of the graduates.  One of the best gifts I've ever seen.

Really, who would think to give a person a box of ducks?



i think this is quite a normal gift...my niece used to collect frogs, so all year long i would find frog things, really tacky frog things, really different & oddball frog things & then put them all in a box for Christmas...finally one year she told me she had enough...i don't know what to do with all my free time now...*sigh*

The daughter with the blue hair gave me a Ty beanie baby - a spider - for mothers day several years ago. I still have it.

A shovel - i needed one

An african grey parrot - he was tired of it. I still have her 3 years later.

A sewing dummy - i really wanted it!

A wood carving kit - it played heck with my carpal tunnel, so i have had to cut (no pun intended) back on the wood work.
