What did you get for Christmas?

[RSI]

I got a Peavey Rage 158 amp, woohoo. It's just what I wanted, but not what I expected.

I was actually expecting to get some computer crap (but I'm sick of getting that all the time, even though my computer is !@#$ed)... I really wanted an amp, and I actually got one, I was truly surprised for once!

I also got some new strings and an electric tuner, which is nice to have.

I can't wait till the first day of school, me and my friend are both gonna bring our amps and guitars to school, 'gonna be fun.

Lots of gift certificates (I've finally crossed that line into "hard to buy for&quot, a new set of dishes (the ex got the nice ones in the divorce, so I've been dealing with odds and ends because I was too cheap to buy myself a nice set again).

My son was buried in presents, the little booger made out like I never did. My parents spoil him rotten, he got five new Nintendo games, three GameBoy games, three computer games, a new Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 joystick and a new TV. This from the same two people that used to buy me a Barbie doll and a few books - guess there are benefits to being the only grandchild.

(and for the person who was wondering about MechWarrior 4 - both my son and brother love it, it's much more realistic than 1, 2 or 3, with great graphics and a new workshop for customization - that's about all I observed, but they were oohing and aahing over it)

heheh...

Hey, I didn't know you were a mom. I would have never guessed by reading most of your posts.. I guess I stereotype "parents" because of what my parents and my cousin's and friend's parents are like. None of them seem as cool as you or Collen.

Anyways.. woah, your son really does seem spoiled by your parents! :Q

Oh well, at least you get to see your kid all happy and stuff.

<sniff> I love you, RSI! I'm an ancient 33 - but glad I look younger in cyberspace.

Yeah, it was nice seeing my son happy - his dad's a real turd, he didn't buy him anything this year, but told him when he &quot;could&quot; buy a new PS2, he would &quot;try&quot; to get him one for Christmas and his birthday (in February). Anyway, I digress - he's a great kid, and fortunately for me, he doesn't seem &quot;spoiled&quot; - he always shares his stuff with his friends and we do charity stuff together. He's 8, but headed up his third grade food pantry drive, so I think he deserves some extra stuff now and then.

lol I definitely wouldn't have guessed 33 . My mom is ... 39 (i think.. LOL). Little-16 for me...

I'm not spoiled, but I'm not very generous either.

ChrichtonsGirl, sounds to me like your son has been raised very well in spite of the fact his father is a &quot;turd&quot;. LOL Sounds to me like your doing a wonderful job raising him and you are to be commended. You're obviously a great Mom and your son is a reflection of that effort.

An ancient 33? Doh, now I'm depressed.
