What did you get?
I got a cd burner that I've got to figure out how to put in. I got cd's and cases, a box of candy, a care package and a warm winter shirt.
Not much, but, I didn't want much, it's getting to the point where I really don't want "stuff".
So, what'd you get?

3. nothing today
unless you count the Trek bicycle I bought for myself on Armistice day. My siblings and parents probably got me something, but I will not find out what until we get together for New Year's/BiL's birthday.

10. Ouch - that hurts.
Glad you had your kids nearby. It ain't the gifts - it's the presence that counts. :)

16. We got lots of money...
And my mom got me some lame crap that I have to take back to Walmart, but it's not Christmas without her buying me ugly clothes. I'll be waiting a couple weeks before I take them back. I'm NOT waiting in that line.

24. I got the Richard Pryor "And It's Deep Too..." CD boxset
which I've been wanting for months, so all those hours teaching Mum how to shop online finally came in handy! I also got Jodorowsky's "El Topo" & "Holy Mountain", Zappa's "Baby Snakes" and "The Work Of Director Michel Gondry" on DVD. Plus a Peter Cook biography and a few odd bits.
