I saw one at the Suncoast Motion Picture Company place in the mall earlier this week, it was like $6.99 but it was bent or I would have bought it 🙁
 
my family doesnt celebrate xmas. but my sister gave me a calender titled "the group of seven" which are a bunch of pictures from the McMichael Canadian Art collection.

i just received a $1200 deposit from the US Treasury Department for my tax return. (filed really really late cause i lost some paperwork) Possibly teh best xmas present Ive gotten since the beginning of time.

Bought for myself the following:
Minolta z1. that spaceship looking camera with 10x zoom.
sony Ericsson T610 with Free bluetooth headset to replace my aging nokia 8390. -$100 after rebates! woohoo!

Minolta Z1
sony ericsson T610
 
Of the exciting things.

LiteOn DVD-RW 8x
Xbox (second one)
A few games for it


The bad thing is that the VGA box doesn't work too well with new Xboxes, the picture is badly tinted red.
 
Canon A70. (my sister got one also. Now in my family we have 2x Canon EOS-1D, and 3x Canon A70. I'll have to line them all up and take a pic . . . 🙂)

clothes that fit me (did you know that it is impossible to find 34" waist, 36" inseam at retail stores? Not even Big & Tall had them! grrrrrr.)

books, lots of books, the one I am reading first is Quicksilver by Neal Stephenson. A good ~1000 pages or so of pure happiness. Maybe it will replace Cryptonomicon as the book I keep by my bed and read whenever I am bored. Man, I musta read Cryptonomicom eight or ten times by now . . . . .

a nice multimeter. Should come in handy with our robotics team (season starts in 15 days or so!! wooo!!) as all we had last year was something that was three times as old as I am.

Some sweatshirts from Rice, the college I will be attending next year.

But the A70 completely rules, and was also 100% unexpected. I love surprises when they rock.

a good haul this year, if I don't say so myself.
I gave people mostly CD's and DVD's, a coupla CDs for older sis (the one that got the other A70, Pirates of Carribean for younger sis, CD's for father, went in with other family members on a really nive housetree for mother (incl. pot, little wheeled thingy for pot to sit on). I forget the name. It started with a "G."


Well, merry Christmas folks!

edit: Oh yeah, I got this shirt, too. But it hasn't arrived yet.
