Christmas 2014

[lhb412]

Well, well, well. Christmastime is upon us. I always want to finish my shopping before Thanksgiving, and this year I finally did it!

Anyway, I'm trying to build a really nerdy Christmas Tree this year, and bought these ornaments in the last few days:



They'll accompany these guys which I bought last year:

What no room for classic Christmas ornaments like a , , , or complete with conversation with the Emperor leading to the famous line of" NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

^Heck, the ones I got were expensive enough already!

I've got my parents done, my wife's main gifts...that's it.

I need to get my brother, my sister, and then stocking stuffers. That shouldn't be TOO hard to do with the time remaining.

I've got the lady's gifts, her niece/nephew, her sister/brother-in-law, my young cousin, my aunt.

Still behind on gifts. It's hard to get ideas from people, though. Anyhow. I've not been doing very much Christmas-y this year, which bums me out.
I'm just trying to get this house ready for me to live in. Between teaching, my internship, coaching speech, and another side project I don't have time to
do anything right now.

Got gifts for my roommates, my mom (she just wanted cash this year), one of my friends, and most of my girlfriend's gifts.

I'm clueless for what to get my dad, I may have to go through his liquor cabinet and see what's running low.

My brother wants to go into a sensory deprivation chamber, but the closest place that has one I could find is damn near across the state. Might just end up going gift cards route.

I got lots of neat stuff: Guardians of the Galaxy, a bunch of Ghibli Blu-Rays (and their associated 'Art of' books), some Criterions, Uncle Scrooge hardcovers, NECA Godzilla '84, and lots of other neat stuff.

... and I also got a bad cold and a waterlogged ipod! Those weren't actually gifts, they just sort of happened. DayQuil and chicken soup for the cold and a bag of rice for the ipod. Hopefully we'll both be better in a few days.

Got a bunch of books i wanted but the real show stealer of the year was from Mrs Klen7. A real Megalodon tooth! It's pretty big and still has some of the serrations. Too cool.


Just imagine the creature that had a whole mouth full of these

[Henry88]

and 105$

[Psycho Soldier]

Got a whole bunch of music and books, as well as a few Blu-Rays. On the music side of things, I got the most recent albums by Judas Priest, Hammerfall, Triptykon, Weird Al, and Earth, Wind & Fire. Books included the first of the Witcher novels by Andrzej Sapkowski, On Writing and Danse Macabre by Stephen King, Eiji Tsuburaya: Master of Monsters, and a custom leather-bound copy of Bram Stoker's Dracula. The BDs were the LOTR and JP trilogies, and John Carter. Some gift cards and junk food topped things off. There are a few more gifts in waiting, as my brother and his wife are driving down this weekend.

Klen, what is the LA Noir book?

[klen7]

No relationship to the game, it was a New York Times Bestseller in 2009. Its the true account of the L.A. mob scene during the 40s/50s/60s (Bugsy Sigel, Mickey Cohen, etc)
Frank Darabont optioned it for a miniseries a few years back.

My biggest gifts were a PS4, some games, and a new piano/keyboard. Of course, Playstation's network has been down thanks to hacking so I've been stuck playing single player stuff. The new Call of Duty looks amazing and has surprisingly good gameplay in the campaign.

I haven't been an avid gamer in the past few years - but I'm glad I am back to playing now. There are some very good games out there.
