Journaling:

On Christmas Eve, my goddaughter and I visit Rockin Rudys, the amazing wonder world of music and most anything else in my home, Missoula, Montana.

We decide ahead of time on our budget, the same for each of us and dependent on current situations, and split up at the door to go off and buy each other presents.

The clerks quickly join the game, pointing out to each of us things the other liked, and hiding purchases behind the counters.

We seek each other out to share exciting discoveries, and avoid each other to hide intentions.

We are never disappointed.
