I got socks from Costco, and a shirt.

I got my mom dog clothes for the puppy. The one that says, "Bitches love me," was a hit.

My grandmother bought me a print of Goya's "Saturn Devouring his Son" which I am very very pleased about. I also got a copy of Solaris, the Stansilaw Lem novel.

EDIT: It's really cool when people buy you things that say 'I listen when you talk about things' ya know?

I got my little brother a sack of onions and one of those big containers of salt. I told him it was because he had been so salty this year and that onions were the best thing and that even general Grant would not move his armies without them. He pouted for a good twenty minutes before I told him to look under the couch and get his real present. It was one of those BugAssalt toy guns that shoot salt to kill flys. He was so happy after that he carried it around all day and even used it to season his food. He is almost thirty. I am the best big brother and an rear end in a top hat.

My niece is a year and a half old and I got her a sports playset with a soccer net, basketball hoop and bowling, some dinosaur thing that does numbers and shapes that even I'm too retarded to figure out and a few Dr. Suess books with the hopes that she'll let her dumb uncle try to read words to her.

The highlight was that she got a play shopping cart and got real mad and red because she thought any gift she got and couldn't fit in the cart she couldn't possibly have since it couldn't go in the cart. That kid learned a hard rear end lesson about capitalism.

I got a gift card to the book store which is probably what I would have asked for anyway.

I got my wife a pair of hockey socks that are too big, and a Lego robot she wanted.

She got me a Lego truck she forgot that I already have because I'd asked for a different truck, and a bike computer that I insisted she not buy me months ago because I'd spent too much money on poo poo and then lost my job like a week after buying a bike, but she insists that I keep it.

So today we're gonna go out to return the truck and socks for the right stuff.

Success!



Lots of gift cards (particularly to Sephora). A memoir by Steve Rushin (he's pretty witty) and a pair of shoes. My dad 'bought' (he has us order it for ourselves on his account) me this fancy eyeshadow palette. I opened the box and by some mistake Sephora sent 3. Loads of store credit, baby!

I gave mostly gift cards, fancy pints of beer, sports-related hats. My biggest one was my cousin who I made her a custom t-shirt based on a long-running inside joke between us. (I made a matching one for myself)

I gave my dad a DAB radio, and paid for the fabric for a handbag my wife made for my mom. I gave my brother the X-wing boardgame, and my sister got Zelda for the Switch. Now she'll have to buy a Switch.

Christmas eve I got food poisoning so I spent the majority of my time at home.

Got some money and well matured stocks that I am going to hold on to for another year or so until my financial aid runs out at school. Friends got me the new South Park Game, some tools, and a mason jar full of some drat good weed.

I gave my brother a joke gift of this grandma porn I found at a Spencers gift shop on sale for 2 dollars. But I also got him to take a trip to Maine so he could see his friends up there.
