Well, I got one of the things on my list. My dad just got The Simpsons Movie on DVD from his workmate. I have to get that thing in my PC soon, it's making for some good avatars. One down, let's see just how many items will not be with me by tomorrow night...

They were on the pier farthest from us, and they stayed for only two days. I snuck a carton of Marlboros and a Zippo lighter to one of the sailors and he hooked me up with one of those ermine hats (with the red star). In those days it was illegal to meet with one another, but that is not how we felt.

That is a beautiful story duckman! Wow, what do you want for your one? What have I got that you'd like? Hmmm a few original 70s guitar rock albums but none of them as good as a hat like that.

I'd like it to stop raining at some point.

Mission accomplished.

This year's Christmas was more low-key, compared to last year. I received some pants and a total of $100 spending money. I think I'm expecting at least one more thing, but it'll be after today. Not too bad, really.

I got a nice pair of slippers that my feet have been begging for and I also got a book that I completely forgot about hinting at. It's a visual guide to fighting men throughout history by the title "Warrior".
It's part of a set that I now have two of (the other one I have is called "Weapon"). Here's hoping that "Battle" finds its way under the tree next year.

I got... a lot. The stuff I didn't already mention in the Spam board are as follows:
  • An HD camcorder,
  • a 1 GB SD card for the camera,
  • a Sony Walkman,
  • $80 GameStop cash,
  • a wireless Wii sensor bar,
  • a camera tripod
  • a camera carrying case (tounge twister!),
  • and a Powersaves thing for the Wii (SD card loaded with files at the end/complete).

I got a hat, a collectible coin, wireless headphones, an emergency sewing/repair kit thingy, a couple of HT gift cards, an R4 card for my NDS, and GM's old TiVo. And Dad brought me some fruit and nuts from his trees.
