I got a carton of cigarettes. The old man grabbed me and said "Hey! Smoke up, Johnny!"

I don't get presents until this afternoon when I go to my mom's

I got an onyx and silver dragon pendant, a georgous set of tear drop earrings, black satin Pjs, a foot rest to go under my desk ( only thing I asked for) and some new books, beginners of series, so I have something to look forward to reading for the next 3 months.

Use those index cards to make reminder notes of witty things to say during social gatherings.

From my husband (Kitca, to you Assylumites), I got 8 brazillion pairs of socks, a couple pair of pajamas (I can never have too many pajamas), a 160 gig hard-drive to add to my computer, a set of Ray Harryhausen movies on dvd (I love Ray Harryhausen creatures), and Nuggets II (cd set of very groovy tunes from the 60s). edit: Oops! I forgot to mention Volume 3 of the MST3K dvds which he made me open on Solstice.

Don't know yet what my gift from my niece will be.

Santa hubby was very good to me. Smiley: inlove

I haven't opened gifts yet since hubby is still sleeping. Progress has been made though, he came out and said Merry Christmas then resumed sleeping on the couch.

Our "toy poltergeist" already loves the one gift I let baby girl open. She was eating breakfast and I'm washing dishes and the damn little kitchen set starts making the musical noise for the sink part. Freaks. me. out.

A Spanish-English handheld electronic dictionary to help me at work, some clothes, Bath and Bodyworks stuff, a knitting set, some hair and makeup things I had asked for, and a check from my Dad (my favorite). I never get exciting gifts from my family. I think I'm past that age.

I was like a broken record asking for one item:

The Mothers of Invention - We're Only In It For The Money
Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs remaster from considered lost tapes without Zappa's 1986 tweaking/rerecording.

...got it, listened to it, and the old dull mix is every bit as perfect for this album as I remembered it being.

The other gift was a total surprise. Yanari pulled did a great one. Two tickets to The Minnesota Opera performing Don Giovanni, March 4, center balcony seats. Fu[/u]ck yeah! This aging punk fuc[u]king likes him some fuc[u][/u]king opera.

*ahem*

Very nice Smiley: yippee

oh...and scissors. I keep misplacing them

I bet you look adorable.

In the States, a "jumper" is a young girl's sleeveless play dress, worn over a blouse or shirt

I'd say that's a little more than creepy. Or was that Mom's gift to Dad and she mixed up the tags? lol

Not **** related, but my mother was notorious for mixing up tags when wrapping gifts. Many was the Christmas where I'd open my gift to find a bra or pair of dress hosiery

A Blackberry, The Office DVD (BBC version), some other stuff.

But the shining moment, as it has been for the last few years, was the gift my nephew picked out for me all by himself - in spite of all my brother and sister-in-law could do.

This year's treasure is a sweater. Not just ANY sweater, oh, no, my friends. This one is lavender and gold and all kinds of fuzzy. With FEATHERS. And some sort of thread-of-gold design worked into it.

I called them up to say thanks and Merry Christmas, and my brother picked up the phone. We both just busted out laughing for like five minutes. I was like, "What have you told him? Does he think I'm a hooker?... I don't know whether to take this to the dry cleaner or the vet."

I have a friend who does a drag stage show. Maybe he can use it. Smiley: laugh
