I want to hear about the true meaning of Christmas - Presents!
I got a couple of Lost action figures, the Lost game, money, a book on Gordon Ramsey (my favorite chef), a candle, money, a cookbook, a t-shirt, Brothers Grimm dvd, Clerks 2 dvd, and more money. I still have a few more gifts to open tomorrow too.
So what did everyone get?

A toolset full of stuff I'll probably never use.
A box of Ferrero Rocher
2 Shirts
A six pack of Carling (tastes like piss)
And Battle Royale 2 on DVD
I would say an average year for presents but I'm always buying the things that I want for myself.

I think I may have forgotten to mention the Windows XP disk that I got, so I can upgrade to windows XP and be rid of the aging windows 2000.
Long story short, tried installing, fucked my computer completely, I have to use the very old and very slow laptop for awhile. However, for personal reasons, I really enjoyed this christmas. All my people-related issues seem to be resolved, I got a few good gifts, I finally talked to my girlfriend after five days of being unable to reach her, and I got to see Clerks II with my older brother.
I gotta say it was a good day.

As far as goodies, I got:
a fur-lined SeaBee coat (OD green military style, you know what I'm talking about)

a Harry & David gift box (fruit and cheese from my mom)
$20 from Jen's aunt (it pays to show up at Christmas parties unannounced)
2007 H.R. Giger calendar
some black pajama pants to wear around the house so I won't get cold knees and then climb back into bed and put them in Jen's back in an attempt to get her butt out of bed (she said she was getting me socks, too, but the feet will always be cold and I will always be a bastard and I will keep sticking them on her no matter what *evil smile*)I think that's it.
Dude, I can smell that holiday party thread from here...

I've been doing college things. Class, homework, work study job, writing for college newspaper, and playing Final Fantasy XII (early christmas gift, got it over thanksgiving). And since I've been home I've had dial up, and haven't had the patience to do anything except check my email, facebook, and use AIM. I finally gave in because I'm bored as hell. My parents moved as soon as they shipped me off, so I have no friends near by now.
