<p>today i got the girl a surprise present. it might rhyme with "sync. lye clod. penny."</p>

it works with a previous gift i gave. she's slowly becoming one of us.

<p>oh, and by the way, i used <a href="http://www.rhymezone.com/">rhymezone.com/</a> for coming up with the rhymes.</p>

<p>UPDATE: she guessed what <a href="http://apple.com/ipodmini/">the gift is</a>. then squealed. but i don't wanna send it thru canadian custom and have to pay duty on it. stupid duty.</p>
