What Did You Get For Christmas?!

[dandaman]

Two items top the list this year.

And the "tree" presents consist of... holy sweet zombie Jesus! A new TV and a freakin' iPod!

Stocking stuffers alone make up this photo. ($50 in movie theatre gift cards? There'd better be some good movies coming out soon.)

The stockings weren't exactly hung by the fireplace... heck, they probably would have fallen under their own weight anyway.

After! The ginormous box in the foreground is MINE.

Before...

^^Wow, you got some wonderful gifts! You're parents sure are generous!

[dandaman]

^I know! I pretty much stared in incredulity the whole time.

 

I got about $250 in total money, too, but I donate 50% of it to the local mission every year. I really don't NEED all these gifts, but trust me when I say I appreciate them all.

I got 3 sweatshirts I had asked for, as well as beer and some new blankets for my bed. My mom got me a portable GPS too but I'm not sure if I need or even really want one, and she told me before I even opened it that its ok if I don't like, so we'll see.

 

... and... get this... a device to cook with! Dave should thank my mother.

I've actually not done that bad... It felt like nothing, but when it comes to a list, oh my God!

 

 

*EDIT* I also got Spirited Away... We hide our presents for fun... But I've just finished watching it and it's the first film to make me cry since the Titanic came out when I was about 8... It's been aa decade since I cried over a movie...
