General Chat / Merry Christmas!

Jealous?

My thoughts exactly.

forget all the clothes i got, my grandparents are paying for our entire family to go to africa for two weeks next summer!

i got... some money for the joystick I'm having built, and some dorm warming things like clothes and amenities.

I also got some cologne and guitar cleaner.

Good year ^_^

My sister got a guitar, and my brother got a new gamecube (old one died).

I got a new Samsung Digi Camcorder (tiny!), socks, movie tix, carl's jr money, and a sweater from my dad/step mom.

Going over to other aunt & uncle's house in Huntington in a couple mins...

Psh.  This is nothing.  Just wait for the people who get guitars AND cars AND computers.

hahahaha. you silly bitch.

I had an amazing Christmas, really. I got

socks
boxers
cologne
auto safety kit
gas can
febreze auto
body wash
hand lotion
bomb chapstick

(basically ALL the shit I don't want to buy myself)

plus

espn trivia challenge
some fucking awesome golf pocketwatch from my grandparents
a reading light
a shirt from american eagle
10 to best buy, 5 to starbucks and 15 cash.

pretty much awesome, PLUS I'm still waiting for four De Capulet shirts (my friend's fucking awesome band) and a CD I bought in the mail, plus a present my sister got me that's still in the mail, don't know what that is.

i love christmas

Dude, one of my uncles brought that to our house last night, but it was too complicated and we were too dumb/inebriated to figure out how to play by the rules. So we gave up and played poker.

Anyway, uh, here's my "loot." To be honest I do feel weird typing all this out, but whatever.

60gb Video iPod (60 gigs holy crap that's a lot)
Atomic Supercross ski bag and boot bag (to match my Atomic Supercross skis)
Red Sox hoodie
American Eagle sweater (from my grandparents)
American Eagle t-shirts, one that has a streaker and one that says "I'm a Keeper" on it (also from my grandparents...uh weird. Anyway I'm never going to wear either. The sweater is nice though)
a nice Columbia wallet
a nice Columbia belt
a nice Columbia gloves (wait)
magnetic South Park dartboard (no, hold on, I bought that for myself)
Homer Simpson slippers (as part of the family swap thing...I don't even like The Simpsons)
a scratch ticket on which I won $5 (YES)
cash money
other stuff? probably

and here's what I gave:

for my mom-
one of those optimistic happy feelgood "Life is good" shirts, with the dude and the dog
a singing/light up nose Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
a whole fucking shitload of candles
for the secret swap or whatever its called-
three books of Mad Libs (including one Austin Powers Mad Libs book)
a cool colorful light thing
for the girl who likes me but who I keep blowing off-
a mix CD of various live and acoustic Broken Social Scene songs

I'm not at home ATM and won't be home untill tomorrow so I can't recall what I got, but I gave:
Dad-Bjorn (or Born?) shoes for the house
Mom-iPod Shuffle

I'm too poor to buy shit for my brothers.

I'm at my brothers house right now and he got me this awsome action figure from Japan, I mean, it's beyond cool, I'll take pictures of it with my new camera (something else I got!) and post them here. It was a good year, I hope everyone had a nice day.

Jelly, aren't the video ones awsome? I bought a 30gb black one for myself about a month ago and I really love it. Very slim.

I've got no apparent use for the video feature, but the photos are pretty nice. I can listen to the Slip show from November 11, while looking at my pictures from same! How exciting. And I spent the better part of three hours tonight getting album art (or other pictures for albums without art) for all my mp3s, solely because these iPods can show album art. Great fun. Good timing too, as I just filled up my primitive 10gig iPod from three generations ago. It's actually a little bigger than my old iPod I think, but the difference is pretty minute.

Just tell us, we should be happy that others got what they got.  It is a joyus day!

FINE

A psychotic shopping spree here: http://thelab.com/

What. I don't get it. What brand of jean do you wear?

^ What? What does that have to do with anything.

Why would somebody be in Nürnberg?
If you are there come to Berlin folks and visit me!
Happy Hanukkah - Christmas - Winterfest - Mid-Winter-Sun-Fest and happy whatever!

was hitchhiking to munchen, sorta came by nurnberg...

and nurnberg isn't close to berlin...

^ What? What does that have to do with anything.

Oh. Well. I was looking at where you shop and that got me interested.

Funny thing. It's extremely hard to actually find a pair of jeans that I like to wear. I'm amazingly picky.

Edited by Geoff, 26 December 2005 - 05:17 PM.

Really? I just go to Anchor Blue.

^ Oh god, I hate anchor blue.

I own two pairs of jeans from Old Navy. Yes, I wear them three times a week. All you need, really.

Eh, Geoff, just get on with it and tell us what kind of jeans you wear!

Right now, Melting Pot.

So that 60gig Video iPod I got yesterday? Yeah. Already scratched the shit out of the screen. Dammit. Suggestions anyone?
