How 'bout ya'll?

_________________

Clothing: Most notable a The Joker t-shirt

Books: Several

Games: Final Fantasy Tactics A2

DVDs: a few Brit comedy ones, smurf Emery, the Goodies

Music: The Who

Alcohol: Two random English beers, desert wine, Limoncello (this limoncello ranks above the craptastic NZ Lemon-Z, and bellow the one from duty free)

$140 cash, $30 borders voucher

Clothes/footwear-wise I got a t-shirt from Brother 2(http://www.topatoco.com/graphics/000000 ... -shirt.gif) (sorry Christopher); a pair of pyjamas (so I shan't be sleeping in jogging bottoms and an old t-shirt anymore); a pair of slippers & a pair of black knee boots (which I'm a bit unsure about, but I haven't worn them with an outfit or owt yet so we'll see.)

I only got 4 books this year! Brother 1 got me the latest edition of moomin comic strips; my flatmate gave me the moomins paperback we found in a charity shop months ago; my dad gave me the most recent Adrian Mole book and a book of a Telegraph cartoonist.

1 DVD Boxset, which was House Season 4, no surprises there, heh.

I got a weird valentine's teddy bear from an elderly family friend... my flatmate gave me one of those teddies that are kind of ugly but in a good way (:P) & mum gave each of us a small toy animal that makes a noise when you press it. Mine is a cat.

Also some posh cosmetics- bath oil, Chantecaille lipstick & Khiel's lip balm. And Brother 2 also gave me some marzipan chocolate & I got some more marzipan chocolates off someone else. A hot water bottle with a knitted cover (skull & crossbones, heh) and a keyring watch from my friend Elly, which was extra good because she remembered I hate to wear wristwatches.

I was pretty happy! I've got a couple of presents still coming- one which may be lost in the post :/ - so that's quite exciting.

Less good was my guinea pig getting poorly on Christmas eve. I am hoping he'll get better...

Nothing.

Unless you count the chocolates given to me by a hotel guest.

Wheeeee for not only spending Christmas in another state and not seeing your parents til 2009 (which is when I'm getting my presents), but for having to be the single person working on Christmas Day to make sure the hotel doesn't burn down.

I should add I got Two Fat Ladies (the cooking show) on DVD. And after watching them lard a monk fish with anchovies, I must admit, I feel a lot better about simply eating a turkey dinner.
My god. No wonder they were fat. But hillarious. I was bitterly dissapointed when the one died.

Ahh now she's pouring hot oiled tomatoes over the monk fish. I love it.

In all seriousness, there was only one thing I wanted this year. Just a Chicago Blackhawks jersey. If they beat the Flyers tomorrow, that's the other half of it. I also got some nice clothes and some workout gear. And some spending money for my trips to Ontario and Perú this spring.

He's got something wrong with his eye. It's either an ulcer on his cornea or a tumour... either way it's red and sore and swollen & I'm giving him antibiotic eye drops 3 times a day and taking him back for a follow up on monday.
