No worries - it definetely hurts him more than me... I love havnig a collection of stuff out to look at and it makes me happy but things in boxes just irritate me...
He and I have been together for 2.5 years and he's had his (amazing) job for 5 - so I'd say that most of the older stuff (fallout, bioshock 1, any ACBC (Assassins Creed Before Conner) he brought with him. It certainly makes gift buying for him easy - he usually won't spend a ton of money on the collectible stuff because he would rather buy the new games. Usually. There are those times though (Especially now with their business trip coming up) that he will get a lot of the newer games and systems (yeah, seems systems too... yay new toys!!)
As far as the glorious Game of Thrones collection - I started creating that wonderful mess in November of last year so that we could have a premier party on the 31st on March. We had 13 people over all together and it was a TON of work! We made all authentic food from the show (thanks to the amazing cook books I got from Santa..) among a mess of other things. I even wore a costume.
We threw such an amazing party and the prep for it was so much fun - I wrote a blog about everything I did - a very healthy blog with a total of 15 very descriptive posts describing the decor, the food, the Clegagne doggie bags (get it? HA!) recipes, the whole bit. I've become somewhat of an expert on the Game of Thrones parties... so if you need some ideas let me know and I'm happy to help! If you want to check out the blog, it's at gameofthronesparty.blogspot.com.
(Hurry up and finish the books, George!!!) I love GoT...
I'm glad to be here guys! I'm glad I was able to find an online community that covets the coveting as much as I do! Thanks for all the praise - I'll keep you posted on the new and awesome things that will be joining our collection soon! Of course if you have suggestions or questions or need something from me I'm a pm away!
