I must have been a very good girl [/short skimpy red "Santa" outfit with fur trim, coy look over shoulder]

Happy Christmas!

- Pyjamas (one set for my parents' house, one for my own flat, as my mum loves washing my pjs for me, she says it's like looking after me. Aw.)
- A "Man About The House" dvd. I have an insane crush on Richard O'Sullivan circa 1974.
- A "Kings of Leon" CD
- A Baileys miniatures set with truffles
- Protect & Perfect serum (although it would take a minor miracle to rescue my skin currently)
- A book on the (I love this period in history) Regency - http://www.georgette-heyer.com/reg_eng.html
- A spa set, with lovely stuff like olive butter and a sugar body polish (you never buy stuff like that for yourself, do you?)
- A voucher for downloading music

And a lot of family arguments (traditional, at any rate.)

Well, under the tree was only stuff for Sam. But on the chair next to the tree I found some nice clothes, a Cuban cookbook, some demitasse cups in my china pattern, the best homemade jam, and some gorgeous sock yarn. And yesterday we had a party and people brought us some gorgeous liquor. And Soupy gave me some yarn she hand dyed just for me! Plus we got a few grocery store gift cards, which I have to tell you is really nice.

Also we got a new nephew for Boxing Day. (I am only a little mad that they used my favorite boy name.)

Merry Christmas, everyone!

I don't really get Christmas presents anymore. My parents wouldn't know what I like (so my mom just gives me cash now -- which is fine) and The Boy doesn't budget for expensive gifts for mom. So I bought myself some Christmas presents:
  • Dr. Horrible DVD
    The Color Purple 2 disc DVD set
    The entire Gilmore Girls series DVDs (74% off -- how could I resist?)
    Friends seasons 6 & 7 DVDs (the only ones I was missing)
    Juno DVD
    Everwood season 1 DVD (can you tell Amazon had a HUGE DVD sale?)

Hey! Merry Christmas Little Ones!

I'm back to work for three days... :cry: (today we're two in my office; a fly and me)

Beside a nice bronchitis that got me coughing since last week, Santa got me a concert ticket, some food goodies, a cookbook (pastry), some nice bowls and some more that I don't remember.

Oh and I'm going to play Pirate for new year's eve: way better that ninjas!

See you Guys!

A 1/16 scale Tiger 1 replica which as well as moving by remote control, actually shoots BB pellets.

(AHEMM... It is for my soon-to-be-born son you understand...not me at all)
