got a laptop, Recettear, and some school-related stuff. tons of ITunes cards, and a winter jacket that actually fits.

also unseasonably warm weather. Like i just went for a bike ride in a sweatshirt warm weather. normally it would be way too cold for that.

Try going the whole year in summer gear. I mean, we have spring/summer weather here.

In the end, I got the gift of tea, and two books. A Pogo collection and Grant's memoirs. Very nice.

Did anyone give out things of interest? I've been baking various presents, because the thing about baked goods is they can be enjoyed by someone regardless of personal belief, or holiday, or diet. Gluten free? I can do gluten free. I kicked gluten free's ass.

I suppose there might be some people out there who don't like baked goods, but I can't do anything for heathens.

Ahem.

I also got the new Tom Waits album for my father.

I got battlefield 3, so I'm happy. Most of my clan from MAG moved over there too so I've already got friends.

I got headphones, an MP3 player(to go along with the iPod Touch 4 i got for my birthday a year ago), and some other odds and ends. Also, 270$(so far).

EDIT: And it's not even over yet. I have to fly to my mom's on a 5:30 flight. Christmas #2 is ahead, and I can't wait to see what I get there. Mom usually gets me the games I ask for. And I got her some nice jewelry that was in my budget.

Earbuds
2 t-shirts
Page a day calander
Some stupid thing that puts cereal and milk in different parts of the bowl (and I eat my cereal dry)
Certificate for a new HDD for my laptop (disguised as a box filled with really old shitty, and heavy harddrives)

And finally, a 42 inch Flatscreen TV.

I am thoroughly pleased:

Grado SR80i headphones
Assorted candies, trinkets, a few decent pieces of clothing, amusing calendar
Only Revolutions and House of Leaves (full-color version)
Both albums by Hadoken (with a sticky note from them attached! :D)
The ENTIRE HELLSING MANGA SERIES (I am so excited, I don't even know how my parents got this, I love it so much)
$120

Possibly the best set of gifts I have ever received.

So far I've gotten... :

A Turtle Beach Earforce DX 11 Headset
A Kindle
The boardgame Arkham Horror
Metallica's Master of Puppets Album (Which is nicely framed.)

Pretty awesome so far, and I still have another family to go to for christmas later on.

Well, you do have a busy life, what with keeping tabs on wild, rough-and-tumble forum members while sorting out the drama between your twenty two inner lesbians.
Your drunk posts continue to baffle me.

Wales? Outstanding - my neck of the woods. By March most of the snow will be gone.

Anyway - 2 very nice bottles of single malt and an adult onezie. Epic win.

I'm wondering who got the Universal Steam CD Key that Valve was giving out this year. They must be quite happy indeed right now.
