I spent this Christmas alone in my apartment eating frozen pizza, reading, watching movies, playing video games and sleeping.
My parents got me a clothing rack.
Best Christmas Ever.

I got two totally rad gifts this year:
Nintendo DS from Jon
a GPS system for my car from my dad
Not so rad gifts include:
framed photo
a bra
makeup
a check (money is great, but where's the THOUGHT?)
This is the first year since I was in high school that my dad got me a gift, and I was quite nervous considering the things he used to buy me, but he did well.

That is bad feng-shui. I know this because my fiancee read it about a week after giving me a Leatherman.
her: *reads book on feng-sui* It's bad luck to give someone a knife as a gift? Man, who gives a knife as a gift?
me: You got me a knife for my birthday.
her: NOOOOOOOOO
Jace:
That feng-shui shit is retarded. My roommate (also my teacher) gave me a sword as a gift before and I took it as the highest form of praise, mostly because it was his sword before that. Maybe it's different if it's passed down, but I feel that it brought us closer as I consider him a brother now moreso than ever.
My christmas haul:
$90 from my dad
$20 from my uncle
A thisrt with a badass tiger on it (this was actually an overdue birthday present. I guess I was going to get a car stereo originally, but I had already bought one, so I got a tshirt instead? Still awesome though)
A blanket, a cover for kleenex boxes (my mom's friends, they are craft people)
Overall, I was just a bit disappointed on the gift front, but I did get to spend time with my family, so that makes me pretty happy. I was really hoping to get more straight up cash so that I could actually put some money away for my laptop that I want to buy.
Oh, I also got cookies from my grandma, and I took them to work and offered them to people because I do not need to eat two containers full of homemade cookies.
