Really?
I'd hate that! It kills the anticipation!

castlevania symphony of the night

pavement wowee zowee deluxe

everyone should get some scissor shock for xmas.

When you are a kid, there's plenty of anticipation before xmas anyway...

My parents always let me open one gift on Christmas eve. The gift is always pajamas.

So currently, I got:

Disney Pajamas (goofy)
$15 gift card to Barnes and Nobel (from a friend)

from my grandparents (i always open their gifts when i have dinner with them on christmas eve), a pay-as-you-go phone to replace my good phone i lost

my dad: gift cards for american eagle, best buy, old navy, barnes and noble

my aunt: 50 buck check

mom: season one of the office

my dad deposited $$$$ in my account, i guess that was nice of him
kinda wish he would've given it more thought
but, it was a nice amount so i shouldnt bitch
my mom bought me a dolce & gabbana corduroy blazer (best gift ever), an awesome paul smith shirt, and a pair of black salvatore ferragamo shoes
my sister got me 6 tshirts (these 4 are my favs)







my girlfriend is taking me out to dinner next week and she got a brazilian wax
my grandparents got me a gift certificate for neimans
my friends got me the little miss sunshine dvd, my morning jacket concert dvd, a couple of badass warhol prints, 3 bottles of goose, a bottle of patron, and a fucking DILDO (what the fuck?!)

:( I shoulda said holidays and not Xmas.

I got Wowee Zowee deluxe too! It's fucking great. I got it a few weeks ago from a friend. Another friend gave me a joke lighter that electrocutes the user, since I hate smoking.

My mom, dad, myself, and my little sister all pitched in to get me a new EHX Polyphase but I don't think it will be here tomorrow since my sister ordered it kind of late. (my parents are poor so I gotta help out if I want something nice.)

My older brother and my middle sister got me nothing I'd assume, since they're out of state. I didn't get them anything either.

No idea what my eldest sister and my little brother each got me. I hope my little brother didn't get me something lame. I asked him for Bladerunner, but I doubt he got me it.

dont know what i got yet .
i feel shitty for only getting my lil bro a (large ) dime of good weed and a cuban cigar . like , woo fucking hoo .

I got a visa gift card for 25 dollars I don't know what to buy online.

I'll write out my long-ass list after I get back from church. PARENTS ARE FORCING ME!

Copy+paste...
I got:
Sigur Rós- Ágætis Byrjun
At The Drive-In- Relationship of Command
Clerks II
South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut
Life of Pi (Is it good? Mom got it for me)
Tribal drum + mallet for it
Tribal plinky instrument...
Shakers
Candy+Chocolate
$20 gift certificate for Music World
Guitar Player magazine subscription
More later after the fambly din-din.

Well, my favorite gift was this book:

I got protein powder and vitamins from my brother (he thinks that i'm too skinny and being a vegetarian is unhealthy), new tires on my van and money in my account from dad, and a knife from a friend.

Two nice windbreaker-type jackets for winter biking
iPod Nano
A nice set of power tools including:
Drill
Circular saw w/laser line
Reciprocating saw
Light
Sander
Jigsaw
Dustbuster
and some peripheral attachments/accessories

What on earth are you building Clone?

I have many home improvements to make.
First off, I am going to do my bathroom in galvanized corrugated steel, as opposed to the raw "construction project in progress" walls that I have been rocking for an embarrassingly long period of time.

I wish I was handy and crafty, my place could use some work.

Don't you think a steel bathroom would be reminiscent of a public restroom? You'll have to show pictures when its complete. Just to get a better idea.

I'm going for an industrial feel. It's that crinkly zigzaggy kind of steel, and non-rusting. My bathroom is tiny so I'm having some fun with it.


And I'm not that handy. I did my living room mostly on my own, but if you look closely my amateurish skills are obvious. My dad will be helping for sure.

-A few different tops from Urban Outfitters
-Three long-sleeved shirts
-SY 100% Dirty shirt
-Scarf with matching gloves
-Four clothing reconstruction books (one has to be returned, I already have it)
-Gift certificate for Exclusive
-Owl necklace my mom made for me; kit to make another
-Set of stationary with owls at the top (also made by mommy)
-$100 (!) for my pay-as-you-go cell phone
-Target giftcard
-Cash
-Rubik's Cube (I will never figure out that damn thing)
-Two sets of pajamas; one with doggies and one with sock monkeys
-Leopard-print travel makeup case
-New printer/scanner (I've had the same one since 1998)
-Candy!


I also got this awesome vintage shrug from my boyfriend, as well as burned copies of Slanted and Enchanted and a Black Dice album.

Heading off to grandpa's house soon. Will get more stuff there.

So far my favourite present is the Jeff Tweedy 'Sunken Treasure' live DVD. Tons of fun:)

Besides the haul of items - CDs, books, some utterly fantastic Italian Leather shoes which'll need to be sent back because they're too small, some fantastic 78s which've travelled a fair way across the country - my favourite thing of this Christmas was getting some film of my five-year-old neice dancing to Melt Banana wearing my Melt Banana t-shirt. Brilliance itself.

A hat from Peru.
Photoshop Compendium (a thousand sites + 3h dvd) - a lot to do.
Bob Dylan book.
Banksy T-Shirt.

I don't know that's basically all. And a bit of money, which isn't bad at all. You know.

I got a bunch of money.
I like getting the money more than I like presents, but I feel like a heel giving money.
I got a trip to memphis, and I get to spend time with my lovely lady.
That's all I got.
I bought myself a ton of Stax/Volt 7"ers to work on my collection.
I also paid off all of my medical bills, which feels pretty good.
