$100 gift card for Dillard's
$100 check
A grey coat

Yeah, we're a practical bunch. The check was from my sister and she'd accidentally left the numerical field blank - and I, in my infinite wisdom, blurted out this fact. She promptly fixed it. :(

I got a

Nabaztag tag

But the my.nabaztag website is down so I cannot register. So for now it is a cute white lump of plastic.

Bummer. nothing worse than a gadget lying idle on Christmas day.

John

P.S. Happy Christmas to all and join me in railing against not saying Happy Christmas just in case you upset other faiths.

Some CD's, a book and a new digital camera (too much absinthe plus good company broke my last one!)

An IOU from my brother for Zelda for the Gamecube (whenever it's in stock around here) and another IOU for a racksack, fleece, money belt and sandals (when the sales start at Blacks.)

Surprise present:

After dinner the parents gave me and my brother an envelope each, containing a day of driving Lotus's at Silverstone Racetrack - SWEET!!!

I'm very happy with my pressies! :)

Most of my gifts are still in the mail...

...fracking internet orders!

Anyway, my parents felt bad so got me a holdover gift: An 80GB LaCie Rugged™ 2.5" external HDD. I also got some two way radios, an El Giganto© tin of truffles ( :cool: ), $100 worth of iTunes cards, and some other small things. Guess It'll be christmas again for me in a few days! :D

the gift of iTunes

Received clothing, but since my DSL finally got activated over the weekend I bought myself some iTunes downloads.

1.Battlestar Galactica (season 3 pass)
2.Stargate SG-1 (Season 10)
3.Stargate Atlantis (season 3)
Had to buy the individual episodes because the Season pass for both Stargates are "not currently available".
4.Showbiz & AG - Goodfellas (hiphop album I owned a decade ago. Can't find new pressings anymore)
5.The Distillers - Coral Fang (Own the cd, but it doesn't work with iTunes or my mac. Which is weird because it worked fine with my old windows pc and Sony MD walkman)

Thinking about a few more season passes. Also bought myself an 8GB iPod Nano on black friday.

I GOT A MACBOOK!!!

I'm doing wayyy better in school this year so my mom, dad, and grandparents all pitched in to get me a 2GHz Core Duo MacBook!! That's so freakin' awesome because I wasn't expecting one at all!

I could ask for one (like last year) but I sure as hell ain't getting one lol. For something like that, my parents/grandparents said to "go and earn the money yourself. You'll appreciate it more."

I was speechless for like the first few minutes after I opened it, and then I felt like that one kid on the BMW commercial, screaming at his present and being way overly excited and all (I didn't really do that though :p ). I'm typing this on it right now, and I must say, MacRumors looks a lot nicer with this font than Tahoma on my old PC. I'm so excited that I don't even care that this isn't a C2D, who the frick cares?! I got a MacBook!! :D :D :D
