Three (count 'em, 3) pairs of diamond earrings (yes, I'm spoiled, but only as of VERY recently).
A kickass picture frame from my brother and another lovely one that I got from Ewo (I collect them).
The Hobbit,
The Lord of the Rings in trilogy form, and the four
Harry Potter books that have been written so far (hardcover and in box set form).
A cute zip-up hoodie sweater.
A
gorgeous poster of Cradle Mountain, Tasmania and a calendar of Tasmania.
A very soft kangaroo (w/baby roo) stuffed animal.
The Fugitive on DVD.
Really soft Angora socks and GREEN BAY SOCKS!! And a Green Bay sweatshirt and cheesehead earrings too!
2 packages of Vanilla Chai tea and a mug to go along with it.
Gift certificate for $100 to my favourite clothing store.
Gift money (I'm 99.999999% sure this was a mistake) called "Orthobucks" which, as far as I can figure, is from an orthodontist. As I've never had braces nor ever will (and since that would be a fucked-up present), I'm pretty sure my aunt & uncle got something mixed up.
About $200 to spend on whatever.

I got some incredibly yummy cookies that my GF and her sister baked for me, and I got to spend the night snuggled up with the 2 cuties watching the snow fall in the wee hours of the morning. That was worth more to me than any gift I could imagine.

I still wouldn't trade it for my new brakes. Thanks for the tips, btw. Tomorrow is going to be a good day, provided that the weather helps. I'm planning to pass a lot of quality hours in my yard, working on my precious.

So far I've gotten:
$370 cash (total)
Wireless Logitech keyboard and mouse ("Cordless Elite Duo" for those that are curious)
Electric Razor (Remington Microscreen 2 TCT)
3 long-sleve shirts
$25 Lowes gift card
I got the gift card from a "Dirty Christmas" party with the relatives. (The rules: Everyone brings a boy & girl gift valued under $20. At the party, everyone draws a number. Once your turn comes up, you pick out a gift. Once you open the gift, its yours. However, if the next person likes what you picked out, they can take your gift and you get to choose another. This goes on till the last person gets a gift. If you get a gift for the third time, its yours and nobody can take it from you. The kicker is that the first person also can take another person's gift at the very end after the last person has gone.) It sounds kinda strange, but its alot of fun. I highly recommend it.
