<ambiguously gay commnet> dont worry tracer, we still love you<incorrectly spelled ambiguously gay comment>

anywho, so far,what i have seen is
1. beyond good and evil(gc)-better be good or i'm driving to a philly gamestop and slapping the employee with the shaggiest beard(in case of a tie, both employees get slapped).
2. new sneakers-(i dont envy my family trying to find shoes for me, size 14 wides are kind of scarce as style goes.)
3. sandman colllection-That new neil gaimen book i plan to read and reread till my fingers fall off.
4. Christmas tie and teddy bear from a girl i'm after -content is passable, but the fact that she got them for me is a good sign.
5. defender(xbox)- ok its not great, but my grandmother wanted to get me soemthing, and she aint rich,and it was 14 bucks, so i figured it will do, looks kind of fun.

actually i dont like gift getting much, i feel guilty asking for stuff, and what i want really cant be given as a gift. i will probably get some cash from some relatives and some chocolate covered pretzels from some co-workers i helped out during the year. but thats about it.

I expect everyone to be posting pictures of all their stuff soon.

Pictures = rad.

I'll be takeing pictures of all 3 of my handsome books!

You live near Philly?! We should meet up some time. Where, exactly, outside of Philly are you?

It's a pretty fun game. Your grandmother did right by you. ;)

Because my grandfather is crazy and hordes money to splurge on everyone at Christmas:

not that close, Johnstown, closer to pittsburg, but not to far to drive for a slapping ;) but i have been meaning to see some friends who go to optometry school there, so i will let you know if im near.

2. good to hear, it looked nice.

I'm just hoping I don't get for Christmas what I got last year. Having a grand mal panic attack while driving alone at 70 MPH is not a present I want again.

I think my parents got me a George Foreman grill and a soup/stewpot for my new apartment, but they said that wasn't my Christmas present. So your guess is as good as mine. I haven't asked for anything.

(EDIT: I wasn't clear on this when I posted, but one of my gifts was what CAUSED said attack. The attack itself wasn't the gift.)

I guess they got you a fondue pot. That's my guess. Maybe its in the cards.
