Better to give than to receive, but let's show some appreciation for what we
got as well.

From my best friend and natural enemy Baakay, I got the cels and sketch
mentioned here.
She also gave me a "Magic of Incarnum" D&D book and an evil pencilboard.

From one of my best friends from my college days, I got DVD's (Nausicaa
and a volume of Gunslinger Girl) and graphic novels (Transmetropolitan and
Fables).

From a friend at work, I got a Trigun T-shirt.

That was the one I knew about. Well, come to think of it, she had mentioned more Gokudo cels, too.

I got some clothes (lots of jeans, which is good, since I keep getting holes in mine from riding everywhere on my bike), a few books, a digi cam and printer/scanner, and some DVDs.

Not forgetting, of course, the plushie and cels from kymaera and the glass ornament from Perv-chan. BTW, sorry kymaera, it turned out to be completely family safe. I know you had your hopes up and everything, too.

You want to know the truely sad thing? I had originaly thought that the printer was just a small photo printer. When I opened it up and found the scanner on top, my first thought was, "Alright! Now I can take this to college and scan my cels!" Sad.

As I posted in my blog, I got a pretty cute gift. After a day of last minute shopping, I came home Friday to find a cage in my kitchen. Inside was a running wheel, a shelter, some food and water, and a very confused lil hedgehog. Turns out my mom, who has a key to my place, got me an early gift. I named him Brillo P. Hedgehog. I'll have some pics when I get a camera. Also got the Firefly series on DVD as well as the movie Serenity. Got a professional poker chip set, and a book. All in all, a very rewarding holiday. Hope everyone else had fun.

I think I mentioned elsewhere that I've been mesmerized by this wonderful new monitor ALL day. Nothing like watching a fantastically gorgeous show like Juuni Kokki on it!!

Kymaera gave me five of the cutest little figures I've ever seen... Mahou Sensei Negima? is that right? Plus a Digi Charat I've coveted ever since he snagged one out from under my nose at AX, the fourth Hokage (I think that's right... the one who sealed 9-tails into Naruto) and a girl with a giant stuffed frog that I understand is from Read or Die. What a cute bunch. He also gave me a Full Metal Alchemist art book. Fabulous!

I think I also mentioned the "Calendar" from the Marshall Islands

Which is a lovely calendar, but had a Chad sketch tucked in behind it. Sneaky Aernath.

One of the funniest things of the day was that my husband and I each gave the other v.1 of Gankutsuo on DVD

I couldn't believe it.

gosh we overspent this year. What a bunch of do-dos.

As I told my dad, the advantage, for my kids, of having parents old enough to be their grandparents is that we've been working long enough to be able to REALLY spoil them rotten! And so we did.

One of the most enjoyable Christmases in years.

Wow!!! I don't know what's better, the gift itself or the name! That's so fun!

Should've been nine of them iirc. Did you check all the boxes?

I'm not overly keen on receiving presents, I prefer to buy stuff for others but I did receive a few wonderful things from my Christmas list: DVDs (Brotherhood: Taegukgi, Ong Bak and Blazing Saddles 30th Anniversary Ed) and this Ikki Tousen figure I've had my eye on for a while.
It's one of the few anime anime girl figures I'll obtain (I know this can be an addictive hobby so I don't want to delve too far in, heh). She'll take pride of place in my study alongside the Alfrex figures, Mezzo DSA gashapon and Akira statue.
