It does make for a depressing christmas though.
dag, Sting, you make it sound so interesting! =) Well, let me be the first to say, "thanks." ^_^
w00t! L00t! This thread is A-OK! ^_~
Okay, this is what I got for Christmas:
A cool-looking winter coat
A nice, dressy-casual shirt
A dashboard light that plugs into the ciga-weed lighta! (actually it's just a [broken] 12 V socket, my dashboard lights don't work haha)
An air freshener for my car
Burnout Revenge (XBOX)
A nice tie (for my first day of work! ^_^)
and 2 gift certificates, $50 + $40 to Best Buy. ^_^
and a second XB controller.
Unfortunately, I needed a new mouse...I wanted to get a game instead. =( dang! So I spent more money on this computer. >_< And I got:
A Logitech G5 Laser Mouse
Aeon Flux (the series) on DVD
Revenge of the Ninja on DVD
w00t!
IMHO, Christmas should be more about Christ instead of gifts or family. And it's always better to give than to receive! ^_^ Even if you don't care, that's what it's all about. I actually have my own theory on Christmas...I don't think it was a religious or Christian holiday to begin with. My theory involves the words 'Catholicism' and 'materialism' (Yeah, I'm sure you can imagine =P ^_~)
Regardless, ya gotta admit for us "merrykahnz" it sure is fun to get gifts on xmas!
What would Jesus get for Xmas? Well, in the words of the Deus Ex Machina in The Matrix Revolutions, "We don't need you! We need nothing!!!" ^_~
