What did you get for Christmas?
 

I got my presents early. Oral sex and a Red Velvet Cupcake.

How 'bout you?

To paraphrase Dickens... A year older and not a penny richer.

Bah humbug!

A broken heart...

What??? only a picture of the cupcake??

My wife left me...



...for two weeks.

Anticipation is the purest form of pleasure.

Nothing special...

America (The Book), Teacher's Edition
I Am America (And So Can You!)
Gift cards to Francesca's Restaurants in Chicago
And the pleasure of knowing everyone enjoyed the gifts I picked out for them :)

Jen and I got a new computer for each other...

It's quite rad.

2 pairs of boots
jeans
8-10 sweaters
Samsara perfume
haircut
flu shots lol
a massive sushi dinner last night

I don't think I'm getting anything more today when I see my parents. We kinda do everything beforehand while shopping together w/Mom. But I still need to hook up with a few friends for the big exchange.

Among various other goods, my sister bestowed upon me a handcrafted sock monkey.

She explained the process she used to create it, but I still don't fully understand. It's my new best friend.

Same thing I got for my birthday

And snow pants, quality baking pans (tart pan, springform pan, loaf pans, muffin pans, cookie sheets, sheet pan), money, wedding magazines, a calendar, a subscription to Cooking Light, and socks.

Snowboarding pants and jacket
A bunch of DVDs - quite a few of them are girl movies :)
Under Armor shirt and hat
Stress relief aromatherapy stuff.. the pillow spray is awesome!
PJs
Robe
Glasses for cycling
Twilight books ;)
Cycling socks
Armband for my iPod
iTunes gift cards.. I've already spent those!
And my boyfriend's family got me a gorgeous bracelet :)

I got passed around to every.single.member of my family while they were at Xmas dinner last night - I talked to 37 people by the time I hung up.

I got to keep my job for another year.. one of the best presents ever.

Doggy Kiss when I woke up christmas morning.


I didn't do gift exchanges with anyone this year, including my family.

A visit to the spa from my boyfriend - 4 hours, which includes a facial, mani, pedi, 50 min massage, and a waxing :D

Bf's mom gave me a handmade afghan blanket, beautiful!

Some reed diffusers from his sister.

DAS BOOOOOOT!!!!!

two liters of solid beer holding glass!!! now, too perfect the twist at the end so the beer doesn't end up in my face!

A perfume I dearly wanted. Hubby, who detests malls in general and triply so around Christmastime, spent several hours tracking it down. He's the best.

That is AWESOME!!! I am so jealous.

I got a big book called "New York". Looks interesting. Also socks. I got socks for Christmas. Not quite oral sex, but, you know, up there.

Magpie wanted me to share that she got Wii Fit Plus. We both tried it out, and measured the cats too; I gather being able to weigh your pets is a new feature.

I was pleasantly surprised by it; it's actually a decent work out.

I didn't get anything, but if my hearing is correct... my buddy got a sloppy blowjob on the couch after I crawled into bed last night.

a big jug of royal copenhagen,
a bottle of henry mckenna bourbon,
two jars of whole cashews, and
a bottle of bohemian highway california merlot...

I got a book. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.

For the first time in years, almost my entire family made it to Christmas as my aunts and I am in MN where we had a three day snow storm! That was the best gift ever.

And....

My 15 year old son saved his money and bought me a 'vintage' Run DMC hoodie and that is definitely second!

Literally nothing.... I didn't realize it until I saw this.

For the first time ever since childhood anyway I got something useful a sky+ TV box, now I can record two progs at once whilst wasting my life on this puter thingy:)

Nothing

$95 and extra time at work.. could not have expected any better :D

A new springform pan from my Son with a note inside saying, "Please make me a blueberry cheesecake!" The demise of my other springform is quite a long story.

Various kitchen accessories, gift cards and Wii games.

My Husband gave me the most beautiful pair of diamond hoop inside out earrings totaling 1.87 carats. I'm a little afraid to wear them out in public. Tried them out at the grocery store, cause that's where you wear that sort of stuff, right? A woman, kept staring at them and edging closer to me with her back to the deli counter and I was facing it, it was rather weird. In all my paranoia I had visions of her ripping the earrings out of my ears and making a run for it. These are not for everyday wear, unless I'm feeling fiesty.

A swift kick in the crotch, figuratively. (see the alt thread "what did you GIVE for Christmas")

A Aperture Science Mug!

and I'll be getting a Nice Left 4 Dead 2 sweater from my Girl Friend!

I got 5lbs heavier!

I got a lot actually. A telescope,The Sims 3, books, The L Word Season 3, Private Practice Season 1, Angel Season 4, Greys Anatomy Season 5.... And much more.

I got a nifty flip-open pocketwatch on a chain from my mom.
My brother bought me a wallet, but lost it somewhere in all of the confusion. (or so he says)
And my sister made Christmas dinner.

I got a brand new desk for my computers (the old was falling apart, plan can attest to this), clothes (which I needed), a toaster oven, a 1TB hard drive, and trip to the casino.

I got a new mp3 player for my music, then promptly exploded the hard drive containing all my music.

I also got port, but most of that is gone because of the above.

A hangover or 12..

Various other things.. nothing important.. my kids had a good time so that's all I really cared to see and wanted.

HP mini, cruzer drive, 300$

The best thing I got was something my daughter made for me. She framed a scrapbook page filled with pictures of her, her brother, and me. oh, and our cat is on there too. I love gifts that come from the heart. :D

I also got Starbucks, Blockbuster, Panera Bread, and Barnes & Noble gift cards.
