Nep_ak, I'm glad you got your tarantula! Let see pics! Is it a male or female? What's it's name?

Joossa, that was nice of you to get that for your brother.....what does it do? Does it make any T-Rex noises?

Here's my new ring

 

[nepenthes_ak]

My wife got me the rice cooker she's been wanting.  Well, she told my daughter that's what I wanted, so that's the gift from my daughter. I'll be sure to act surprised and happy about it. Grrrr.  After I cried foul, three other presents appeared.  Since there aren't three things that I want, I'm completely at a loss.  But my brother-in-law gave me a Samuel Smith beer sampler, which is much appreciated.  It includes a bottle of nut brown ale like I used to take to car races at Lime Rock 25+ years ago. Mmmmm.

Garmin GPS for my car!

clothes, more clothes, money, final fantasy XII, some really nice sheets and a comforter from RL.

more clothes....

I did get a co2 system, new lights and accessories for my co2 system that I didn't really need but wanted. I got those as soon as they came in the mail

That was part of my christmas so I guess that's why I got so many clothes this year

Good news is after 17 years of life, my parents finally know how to shop for me

Man cody. Am I the ONLY person who can't drive? I'm so lazy I haven't even opened the book to study for my learners permit. I can barely drive the golf cart lmao!

 

[nepenthes_ak]

Its fun to drive, more freedom! maybe you're parents would let you do more stuff but you're home schooled so theirs really allot less you might need a car except for if you get a job!

No pictures right now, because I'm a dirty monkey-garbageman, but here's a summary of what I got:

Final Fantasy III (DS)
Golden Sun 2 (GB Advance: the code to transfer the data from the first one is 6 pages long. LOL)
An electric shaver.
A windup LED flashlight.
An awesome set of headphones.
A really cool themometer. (I know, you're wondering how a thermometer can be cool- I'll take a picture of it or find a site with it for you all to see. It's neeto to the max.)
A heavy sweater for my upcoming Death Valley trip. (Gonna be cooooold at night.)
A bunch of candy. (Some German, some Chinese. Excellent all around.)
A bottle of road supplies (It's a nalgene-like water bottle filled with things you can use in case your car breaks down. As my car is currently held together by two planks of wood, I'm very thankful for this. LOL)

AND: Season 5 of M*A*S*H

How anybody can be expected to survive the winter without MASH is really beyond my comprehension. Winters were MADE for MASH. One of the best ways to help stave off seasonal depression. <3 Alan Alda.

In summation: AWESOME. Pictures to come... Maybe.

Yes, it does make T-rex noises. The toy is actually like a foot and a half tall and its eyes light up and it swings its upper body around as it opens its mouth and roars.

We just opened presents about an hour ago. We had fun and lots of food. Right now, I am enjoying the 24 hour marathon of "A Christmas Story" on TBS... funny stuff.

BTW, nice ring Niki!

Yay! JLAP, I'm pretty excited about playing this game. I've had it almost a week and only logged about 2 hours into it. I've completed three hunts so far. Wish I didn't have a job. FF is a lot more fun when you can play for 100 hours straight!

Cute grandkid, arie. Born on Christmas?

xvart.
