Meerrrrryyyy Christmas!!!

Aaaahhh, Christmas. Good times. I think my stomach is about to shrivel up and die....too many chocolates for me. Today was a good day in general, not much happened, besides of course the gift giving/getting and the like. I mainly sat at the computer like the tech junkie that I am. I don't have a cell phone OR Zune(I'm anti-mac) however, and I don't want either, so I don't consider myself to be a complete tech zombie. I'll be the only one with decent hearing and no tumors in 40 years....burn suckers:P.

Onto matters of business. This Christmas I got a rather massive number of gifts. I received:

The full collectors edition of Calvin and Hobbes! Much great reading ahead:)

Gipf
, a very fun strategy game. I tried it out today and found it extremely entertaining.

A hologram maker. In the picture the pig looks material, but if you try to grab it...lo and behold, your hand slips through!

A wooden mannequin, like the kind they use in art stuff. I'm going to try to use it for animation stuff probably.

A Potatosheep stamp. I can now stamp "potatosheep.com" onto just about anything! I'm going to start putting it on all my homework from now on...

An account at our local grocery. It's not so much a grocery, as a place where all the local bakery's foods are sold. It also has a wide selection of fruit/veggies/bulk stuff, but I mainly go there for a good bread roll, a sweet pastry and a soda. Ahhh, heaven.

A very nifty secret box thing. It has a slat on the side you slide back, revealing a small buttonesque thing. when that is pushed, a drawer slides out of the front. I like it quite a bit.

Juggling pins. I have been an avid juggler for a few years, which is what inspired this gift. I tried them a little today, and boy are they hard to get used to!

A remote controlled helicopter. Can't really steer it, but that makes it all the more fun!

A quite nice drawing kit to go with the mannequin, several high quality pencils, and some nice paper too. Ah yes, and a good sharpener! Those things are hard to come by.

A gift card to Target. Still deciding what I'm gonna get. I wouullddd get Halo 2 for PC but nooooo, it requires Vista!:@

A tie-die T-shirt.

A model F-15C model airplane. I need to get some glue for it however.

Well, I believe that concludes the list of Christmas takings, sorry to anyone if they got left out, I apologize. Anyways, merry Christmas everyone! Happy holidays! All that commercialist rubbish to support the economy!
