Got What I Wanted!
a smile from my moody irritable teenager.
Merry Christmas! Did you get any goodies you were excited about? Did you give anything you were excited about? |
I gave a portable DVD player so that season's of "House" can be watched.
It was met with a big smile and surprise. I got the new wedge I needed for golf and the DVD of "Band of Brothers". I also didn't have to be to work at 3am, so I'm very happy today. |
Merry Christmas Nut!

Merry Christmas Lil! :x:
I got a digital picture frame that looks sort of cool. Now if I can figure out how to use it I'll be set. :p |

So you got that MMF you've been wanting????????? |

I have one too I need to figure out. Merry Christmas IowaMan! |

Do you remember being gagged and hog-tied? Then I guess not yet ;) Merry Christmas Navarre. |
My daughter was delighted – she did the “OMG! OMG!” thing - when she opened her Opening Day tickets!
Merry Christmas Lilith. :) |
I have a couple of gifts sitting in a drawer, I'll get them later and unwrap them, I've been busy burning, ahem, cooking food and picking at it so much that when it came down to eating it, I wasn't particularly hungry and hadn't given the presents a thought :rolleyes:
I've heard word that at least a few of the things I gave were received with gleeful squeals of delight, and that made me happy :) 1nutworld, I have Band of Brothers, it's a fantastic series. I got as far as the second to last episode and then I broke down so much that I didn't feel I could sit through the final episode at the time. I will do one day though, I think the whole thing is something that needs seeing. Lilith, Merry Christmas to you :xmas: I wonder if you got that smile on camera as it might be a while before the next one. I'm sure I didn't crack a smile to either of my parents/step-parents for the whole of my teen years :yikes: :wave: |
I got the box set of Buster Keaton films that I wanted. But I didn't get to see my other half and probably won't for a few weeks yet.

It's 80 degrees here today and I'm almost too hot from cooking to eat. Almost :D :bite: Merry Christmas FlirtWithMe. |

I hope your reunion comes swifter than you imagined! Merry Christmas cavegirl! |

You will both LOVE it, Lil and IM :nod: Got one myself and all you need to do is plug it in and stick in any card with pics on it. It will start running a slide show by itself. You can play with the tricks later. |

I was given 'Band of Brothers' last year and you are right, FWM. It should be required viewing by every parliament, congress member and national authority in the world before taking office. Perhaps the best story telling to someone that hasn't been to some place you don't want to go that I've seen. |
GAVE: A new watch
REC'd: A new GPS :D |

I was right about being the Santa of the year for some thrilled kids. :xmas: Without a doubt, the highlight for the three youngest was the surprise I spotted so early in the year. :D While I knew it would be a hit with the youngest three, I was happily surprised the see envy on the faces of the 14 and 16 year olds. (Birthdays are coming ;) )
You can see how thrilled my daughter is and that is my son-out-law to the side, checking his new engraved silver St Paddy day flask for content. :D Only thing better than one good gift is three good gifts. :) |
You are fucking evil.
Merry Christmas PF. |

Lucky bastard! Surely you have the entire germ warfare collection by now :p
Merry Christmas, Happy Festivus, gekkogecko. |
The oven in our stove went out about a week ago and our three girls families went together and got us a new stove which my son-in-law who lives in Peoria, came over and installed yesterday. :) The perfect gift at the perfect time.
This morning, we had the kids over and made souffle's, bacon, braided bread, and coffee cakes ... initiating the oven in fine style. Merry Christmas, Lilith! :x: |
Apparently, I must ghave been extremely naughty this year, cause Santa didn't even leave me a lump of coal :tear: :tongue: :roflmao:

Well, hell, where'd he leave that gift at then? Some kid got one hell of a surprise this morning then :roflmao: |

I got tears from my moody girl!! :thumbs: She wants to be a baker and loves making cakes and cupcakes for her drama class. So, I put together a huge box with new cake pans, cake mixes, frostings, decorations, and a new cupcake recipe book. It was the package of rubber spatulas (she had talked about them once) that really turned on the water works. Damn child even got me crying. :) My Sweetie gave me several wonderful gifts, but my favorite was the pink Build-a-Bear I got last week. I named her Little Girl and she has Hello Kitty panties. I love her!!! I gave him a wallet that was the nicest he has ever owned. That made me feel good because he is damn hard to buy for. Merry Christmas everyone! |

What a great gift! Merry Christmas TT. |

Abso-fucking-lutely! Merry Christmas Lil...and thank you for all you do to keep Pixies so special. :x: |
My Dad received Band of Brothers a few years ago. We watch the whole thing once a year. On Memorial Day. Wonderful series. This year I got the first two seasons of House and the first season of Friends. I don't mind watching the show every once and awhile, but what am I gonna do? My dad seemed to like the copy of Ray I got him, my aunt loved the two Toy Story movies I got her. My cousin Marion I gave the fifth season of Tales from the Crypt. And my cousin Jaremy seemed to like the sword I got him. Christmas was lean for us this year, but it still wasn't half bad.

Christmas was lean all over. Sometimes it's when times become tight that people remember what is really important. Sex is free. Merry Christmas Lord Snow. |

While I didn't get what I was hoping for, I am really excited about what I got... Pink Floyd CD's and DVD's. :)
I was excited about giving a couple digital photo frames and they were well received. :nod: Merry Christmas, Lil! Merry Christmas, Pixies-Place!! |
I was just watching a documentary on vH1 classic about the Floyd.
Merry Christmas Aqua. |
Merry Christmas, Aqua! :thumbs:
|
Wait, is this where someone says "Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night?"
|
I got the world's softest blankie (in white), and matching slippers.
|
Very nice. I know a sheep lover who may want to peep under your covers!
