I don't really ask for anything. I work, and as such I buy what I need/want, which makes me extremely difficult to shop for. After I've bought these things, however, and all my bills are paid I have very little left to pay for one of my largest addictions: Tattoos. Now, since most people I know (specifically family) would never follow me into a Tattoo shop, I usually just recieve money in exchange for the promise that I don't show them the final product until it's healed.

All in all, I don't ask for anything, and that's a fairly big thing since my B-Day's a week before X-Mas, too. Just not a focus of my lifestyle, you know? My friends are cool with that, cheaper on them. Mom and Dad, on the other hand, can't resist and usually just hand me some cash.

Now, as for your BF. I'm not saying this is %100, but in most cases Fabric=Bad. The book and video game are way cool ideas, though, and you know he wants them. Sounds like you have a plan
