Hi, my name is Dallin and I am hard to shop for

So.  It finally hit me.  I was talking with a member of my family when she said, "well, you're just so hard to shop for..."

The sad thing about this is that I had heard this same thing approximately 400 times before it hit me:

Apparently I am hard to shop for.

I believe that I'm actually pretty easy to shop for...  but my solution to this impasse was to create this blog.  Not only will I place the things that I need/want/could use/will die without, I will also post updates that express my gratitude for those who have met these needs, fulfilled these desires, saved my life...

Here it goes:  a window into the my material hopes and dreams.
