Rye, you have no idea how fun the airzooka can make working at Spencer's.

Post by **RogueIce** » 2003-12-25 06:14pm

Not much for me, yet:

A new pair of pants and a jacket that I really like...

Some "Elite Force" playset in lieu of the Bucket of Army Men I wanted (hey, it was close, I guess).

A GI JOE LEGO lookin' thingy...

And $150 cash so far...hopefully, my aunts and uncles will come through soon.

And the day's not over! Maybe I'll see if anyone I know got me anything, in which case, I'll have to go get them something too.

SAMAS · Post by **SAMAS** » 2003-12-25 08:27pm

New shirt and jeans.

New shoes.

$200 American

Two hoodies

Miscellanious stuff from aunts/grandparent

Chardok · Post by **Chardok** » 2003-12-25 08:30pm

Addendum:

My Grandparents got me stuff.

More singing hamsters (The Army Song one, and "I want you to want me" by Cheap Trick, I have 12 total now.)

T-shirts (1 pack)

Briefs (too small)

And the kicker from my GF:

A collectors Game Time Miami Dolphins 1972 "Perfect Season" Officially licensed NFL Watch. (Quartz movement.) I shat myself when I saw this.

2 new dolphins shirts, one sweat, one short sleeved.

a Nautica shirt (XXL, I love big shirts)

A Pierre Cardin shirt

and WAY too much food. I am perfectly miserable now. Miserable and happy. Damned Christmas. I always get into the spirit on christmas day, adter I see random generasity despite my scroogeness.

Merry Christmas, Everyone. Hope everyone's was great. Here's to a great new year, too.

I don't have any plans just yet. (I live in government quarters for one). But having a shit load of screwdrivers at hand can only be a good thing.
