[quote=Anonymous]I got a Kindle. I hate them. It's a running joke that I won't read a book unless I can smell the paper! I asked for a book - any book. I have to read grants and regulations for work, all day, every day, on a computer screen. The last thing I want to do is stare at a screen as a form of relaxation. I'll read any book, new, used, romance, adventure, cookbooks even. So, I get a kindle and am told I will learn to love it. I've used my kids and nope, not happening. Go to return, computers are down, spend an hour in line and I can't return it. SO, I am stuck with a gift (the only one I got this Christmas) that I won't use. Meanwhile, I shopped for my whole family, my extended family, my in-laws, did all the cooking, cleaning, decorating for the holiday and I get a gift I specifically said I did not want. All I really want to to know that someone sees how much effort I put into making sure they're happy, healthy, well fed, etc. and this one gift left me feeling like no one really gives a darn.[/quote]
