Brag about your loot

[aaglo]

No way.

[Japher]

Good, I would probably get in a lot of trouble if I tried

[Skanky Burns]

I can see some benefits of being single - I didn't have to spend anything this christmas on her.

Well, I know that I'm getting Kiki's Delivery Service on dvd from my parents. My mom asked me to find it in the store for her... so I did.

I also bought myself Gattaca and Some Like It Hot. Nice.

First real present today. I got 7 cans of Johnny Walker and coke from my manager after work. She needed to get rid of some "excess" stock.

Got a few stuff for my "new" appartment

And a few old movies on DVD (Blade and Coming to America)... have had both on my wishlist
Then I start reading on the back of the Blade box to see what's on... lots of interesting stuff and such... bla bla bla... subtitles, 5 different, bla bla bla... subtitles not optionally...
Nooooooo... that's 50% of the reason why I prefer DVDs... to get rid of those damn subtitles, and now you're telling me it's not possible

Another hour to Boxing Day. Can't wait!

My lovely fiancee gave to me:

Two snazzy ties--including one with hockey all over it
Tenacious D--The Complete Masterworks
And a sweet poker set, with a couple decks of cards and five different colors of weighted clay chips--awesome.

She also wants to take me shopping for an overcoat (for my interviews) and a new wallet. Love that woman.

[Urban Ranger]

You're a lucky man.

something special from my fiancee

That was from my family & fiancee...we haven't been to her house yet, though I don't expect much from them since they're not what you'd call pleasant folk. Somehow, my fiancee made out better with my family than I did...I suspect they like her better than me. This is not totally unexpected, I guess.

That being said...anybody know any good XBox games?
