Same, lol. I won't have any big present though. I'm still trying to figure out what I want. Not needing something, or having anything in mind for Christmas sucks.

MERRY CHRISTMAS! :>

Haven't done anything aside from wake up and take a poo-poo as of right now but WE SHALL SEE WHAT HAPPENS LATER.  I ended up getting a Chipotle gift card a few days ago, which makes for a WONDERFUL pre-Christmas gift. :D

Well, I opened my stocking:

$20 in Tim Horten's gift cards
$25 Coles gift card
$250 Check from my grandparents
Candy (a bag of M&Ms and a bag of chocolate covered almonds from the local bulk food place)
And a Toothbrush.

As far as large presents, well, my parents and I yet to figure things out, but it looks like I'll be spending some of that $250 along with getting some extra help from them to buy something. I'm leaning either towards a watercooling kit for my computer, an AMD Athlon 64 x2 3800+ (since it's one of the only cores I could possibly update my system with, without buying a whole new MOBO, something I'd like to delay for a while yet), or some sort of NAS (I might be able to find something with 1TB of space that's affordable, with my $250 plus what my parents are willing to spend).

More updates when everyone in the house wakes up...

$75 cash
$15 Arch Card (which is awesome, considering I've been in the mood for McDonald's lately :>)
$15 Best Buy gift card
A shitload of candy
A toothbrush
A year's supply of clothes (which is good)

A 365 Stupidest Things Ever Said day calendar (I got one of these last year -- best thing EVER)
An Axe gift set

Quite nice. :)

Didn't ask for much, so I got an Axe Vice giftset, (still) waiting on Swap magic (expected by the 27th), and i'm getting a Creative Zen mp3 player (this one: http://us.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=213&subcategory=214&product=16999 4GB model). Me and my brother just got $100 cash so i'm gonna be buying IIDX 10th sometime in the next few days (i'm gonna wait and see if my swap magic comes while i'm here).

Doublepost for I Fucking Hate My Router.

I don't know whether it's the My Book or my shithole router, but I can't get it connected. It doesn't show up on my router at all.

Some new speakers and a CD player/radio thingy for my car. Also, a scrolling text marquee thing from my sister, a toothbrush and candy, and $50. That's all, folks.

Oh yeah, I got NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams, too. It's really cool, wow.
