 Three hours after Christmas ended, and quite a few things. Some shirts/sweaters from relatives, a small LED light that works out well enough for its size, fits right into my pocket. A 2 Gig MP3 player, because fuck it I won't need more than a few-hundred songs at a time and I told people I only wanted a cheap one, and some good earbuds. Although I should have asked for pants, because three of them just died in the last week alone through sheer chance.

Why do you people need so many pants?!?!?!? I go through a fair amount of pants every couple months, but only because I grow taller like nobody's business.

 I live an active lifestyle, and my clothes just can't keep up. The pants-based technology has not yet caught up to my shenanigans-based tech.

Bull.  I haven't bought a pair of pants in years, and I get by just fine.  Your standards haven't lowered enough to meet your shenanigans.

It is quite fascinating to sift through my jeans-drawer, and remember that the pants that are now threadbare sackcloth, I once considered my "nice pants".

I apparently got a shitload of snow. It's outside, help yourself if you want any.  :o

And I managed to make it to work despite the car handling like a jet-ski, thanks to the roads not being nearly as good to drive on as I expected.


Beyond that, I got a set of footie pajamas. It's kind of tricky to make one-piece footie pajamas for adults, so these are kind of somewhere between a cleanroom suit and a prison jumpsuit, but slightly more pajama-y. And I got a Wii game, but it looks to be made of FAIL, so hopefully I can return it and use the refund towards NHL2K11 or Gretzky's Slapshot.

I have disastrous dandruff, but I've been using this stuff for years without any improvement, so it's pretty much worthless.

Have you tried Neutrogena T-Gel? The one with the coal tar in it? I use it irregularly and it seems to help. Although I wouldn't really call my dandruff disastrous....
To be honest, I think it might be a case of psoriasis, since my face is equally flaky. And red. Though not quite as itchy.

The only reason I've gotten new pants was because I was getting too tall for older pairs.

One of my patients vomited on me. Is that considered a gift?

I've already posted in this thread about what I got, which I thought was merely the wonder of excellent friendship never tasted before, but it would turn out that I've surprisingly received real, tangible items come Christmas morn!

I got a mess of candies, including a bag of skittles, some tinned treats, and these weird chocolates tightly bound in a plastic container wrapped in decorative sleeves with sailboats and other maritime memorabilia. I also received two DVD movies: Ike (some weird movie about a soldier or something) and Mr. Woodcock, a comedy that, unknown to my Christmas givers, was a movie a hated quite passionately. I accepted it with a smile nonetheless as I was passed my largest and most unexpected gift of all: a tiny DVD player!

I'm simply astounded at how unbelievable these people, whom I've known for only a short time, have warmed to me and have insisted on being so generous and kind. My harsh life up to this point has not known these qualities in anyone except my dear Aunt. I have no idea how to repay them.

A watch, new shoes, new slippers, Donkey Kong Country Returns for the Wii, Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Heroes 3 for the PSP (the charger for which just died last night :(), and a collector's edition four disc set of two hundred classic cartoons from the white elephant gift exchange at the Christmas eve party with my mom's side of the family. The were probably a few other things, but I can't think of them off the top of my head.
