That's a HAUL!!

I haven't even been home yet. But I suspect I'll get some greenbacks and a free meal from the parental units.

2. Simpsons Operation!!!
Awesome!

I got a really nice office chair, an easel and canvases, and I think I won $100 on the lotto ticket my mom put in my stocking.

12. I got a pair of shoes. They don't fit.
But the wife got a brand new set of golf clubs. I'm sensing a little inequity in this relationship.

23. I think I know
just how he feels! Like about 9 years old with the biggest set of HotWheels in the neighborhood - or in my case a Betsey Wetsy in her own carriage!


Your Dad and I also know we are blessed with exceptionally loving and generous children. Nothing trumphs that for "Joy".


:hug:

24. I did alright-- I got just what I wanted
new man-purse, new wallet, a new sweater, new socks, a new shirt, a coatrack, gift card for the bookstore, and a suprise from my mom-- a brand-new insulated black leather coat!

Now I can look like a badass even when it's -10°. Yeah, that's right. Badass black leather coat and my badass black leather man-purse. Don't fuck with me, I'm hard. :silly:

Glad to hear your Christmas was good! :hi:
