Christmas!!! Whatcha get?

[darth_nevus]

So I'll be the first and foremost to state that I can't stand Xmas shopping. That coupled with the fact that I'm usually picky about what I want. What I wanted to tell my family was don't buy me anything. Lets just get together on xmas have diner and enjoy ourselves. How ever I know my family and they wouldn't go for that. They'd want to give me something So I thought I'd do something different this year. Instead of gifts I thought I'd ask for donations to whatever charity my family felt was a worthy cause. My Wife donated 100 bucks to the Carbon Fund (carbonfund.org). It's a charity that tries to offset carbon emissions and fights global warming. My eldest brother donated 400$ to the Dafur relief effort. My other brother donated money to the Fuchs Dystrophy Assoc. Fuchs is a degenerative eye disease that affects my Dad.

Oh I also got some odds gifts. My Father in law got me a nose hair trimmer....I was like ummm thanks...I didn't think it was that bad.

What I got my wife however is a Tomtom GPS. GPS's rock...OMG I should have gotten this thing years ago. Let me just say a couple of words...NO more fighting over directions with my wife....anymore!!!

Very admirable! though, i must say they are trying to send you a message with the nose trimmer.

So I was at the mall yesterday, and said to my wife "Let's go into FYE. I want to see if they have the other Jack Bauer figure."

About 4 seconds later I feel this giant thump on my arm as she hits me in the shoulder from behind with both hands, and starts laughing. She apparently bought (and wrapped) the thing for me already, but forgot about it on Xmas day, and hid it somewhere different from the rest of the gifts. Took her a few seconds to remember about it.

So now I also have Jack Bauer kicking ass to add to my list of x-mas gifts.

20 foot flag pole w/ nice embroidered US Flag. Going to a bitch to put up but looking forward it.
COD4
Vairous clothes, pj's.
$100 in Visa gift cards - probably get a nice, sturdy POW/MIA flag to hand below the US flag with those. And maybe a new gaming mouse if I have any money left over. Or maybe I'll just buy some more chrome for my Harley. Decisions, decisions... .

...also will be having Christmas with my sister and brother-in-law on New Years day as they were visiting his family on Christams...so I'll be getting a few more items then.

I decided on a new mouse - picked up a G5 Laser at Wal-Mart earlier.

Got a new computer! And I'm going through withdrawal because I can't actually get it hooked up until Kenshin and I head back home around January 3rd. It's nothing extremely crazy (was trying to help Dad save money, since he was buying all the parts) but it means Kenshin and I will be playing together from now on.

AMD Athlon 64x2 5200 +
2GB DDR2 RAM
XFX 7950 GT
250GB Seagate Hard Drive
19 inch Viewsonic Monitor
(And runs on Windows XP! w00t!)

That's the only stuff I remember off the top of my head...mostly the main specs. Again, not top-of-line material, but best I've ever had the pleasure of owning.

I'm still waiting to play with my Christmas gift....And Kenshin has had his new amp and overdrive pedal for about a month.
