$50 and a new pair of black leather driving gloves.

For my birthday (which is the 27th, but always merged with Christmas) I got a nice addition to my weight set.

Um, avenger, don't get any strange ideas about killing some blacksmith's dog now... :lol:

[As I'm posting this A Kiss to Build a Dream On just started on my new anthology of Louis Armstrong songs.]

I got DVDs, books, a couple of CDs, cash, and my grandmother was kind enough to get me some looseleaf tea so I don't have to putz around w/teabags for a while.

OTB

i was right, i got a braun dual blade washable mofo, something i can really use and now my GF won't complain about my stubble, also a decently nice (albeit GAP) sweater that is kewl... lolz, my parents gave my brother socks and wrote it to be from me, i also got cash which i will be needing a lot more of soon

being poor, i made my brother a mix cd of the greatest rock songs that he probably has never had the pleasure of hearing, i printed a snazzy minimalist and perfectly proportioned cd cover, insert and backlay because nero is l337

i gave everyone else "love" or something. ugh... what'd y'all get for your siblings/rents/loved ones?

i've noticed that x-mas isn't as fun when you're poor and it's even worse if you're poor and alone :O

Isn't that one of those red dot scopes?

anyway... I got a 1600 duron :x from my dad... and a bunch of other pretty neat and inexpensive stuff. pretty ok I guess.
(I guess the duron is good considering my previous computer was a pentium3 450..)

I got some books, dvds, a black-light (loll), a lamp, an alarm clock and a thick black dressing gown becuase my other one is falling apart. And a little bit of money and some finding nemo and spider-man toys (?).

I got some other stuff too, but it's not worth mentioning leowlaol

I didn't get anybody anything. But I didn't see anything intresting anyway, what's the point in buying a single present if it's not bizarro or something.

What exactly is a dressing gown? Is it like a bathrobe or something?

yea?

It's like a robe that you tie around the waist with to fasten up or something. I wear one all the time because I can't be bothered dressing properly.

I got 17 movies, 7 XBOX games, a Nikon N75, photo scanner, photo printer, 38 books, some socks, some underwear with skulls on them, some money, and a blow job.

To make this a bit less one sided, I spent about $650 on my parents and girlfriend..

One shitty dirt cheap alarm clock, really UNcool clothing, a wallet and the eventual mobile phone (cause the wife lost my old one). I gave my son a bike and the wife a cool digital camera. She did buy the presents for the rest of the family and freinds because I HATE shopping.

DizAMN ExtremeDrinker :shock:

I got a couple of t-shirts, slab of Becks, some citrus schnapps, aqua di gio, and cash from my dear granny.

And I've already used most of the cash to order more records :D

Don't forget to warm the pot first. :)

I got £20, when I saw my Father last week, so I bought the T3 DVD.
