I blame it on his teachers.
I picked up some cool stuff. A lawn mower, an electric drill set, a Home Depot gift certificate (can you tell my wife and I just moved into our first home yet?), some money, and a KC Royals hoodie. My wife bought me a badass alcohol dispenser too.

i moved in recently with the g/f, still renting rather than buying but w/e.
Spent $5k on stuff when we moved so didnt get much for christmas, just some clothes and other bits and pieces. My mom bought me an electric screwdriver.
Cheers mom, i get the hint  (my house is fine, i just suck at DIY, and dont have a job  )

I actually got some decent gifts this christmas.
Got a poker set composite chips but not that great quality. But hell, at least I can throw a home game now. I got Phil Helmuth's "Play Poker Like the Pro's," terrible book, avoid at all costs.
I also got some cash, a shirt some cologne, boxers, a CD, an umbrella. Little things that I needed. So it was a pretty good score.
Oh and I also managed to piss my whole family off for totally destroying the $5 maximum buy in NLHE game that one of my aunts suggest we played. 7 handed and I walked away with 45 dollars. Not too shabby but everyone thinks I play poker way too seriously now.

My fam. decided to be lazy so I got gift cards to Best Buy, Pac Sun, and Marathon..
Girlfriend decided to not be lazy though and had a signed 8x10 picture of Fred Taylor sent from Florida and also got me a Jaguars hat and (surprise) a Pac Sun giftcard.
The sex was good too, but that hat just fits so damn good.

Got a pretty kick-ass digital camera. (My last one broke when my ex did ex stuff to it)
One of those printers for it, dunno if it's any good, but at least I have a printer now
Awesome fucking seats for a Canucks game in March
Then a whole schwack of gift certificates for Future Shop
Unintentional bonus gift: While I was back in town I checked on my house and it turns out my renter had a weeks vacation and he decided to totally rework and fix my neglected yards because he was bored. Thank-you +$15,000 property value!

I think I actually may have gotten something for Christmas. I walked out my door on Christmas morning to go to the store and buy some breakfast. I find a gift on the top step unlabeled. It must be my secret santa!
I open it up and find a nice shirt I like. Then I realize the people downstairs probably dropped the gift as they retrieved them from the attic. Now it sucks because I can't wear the shirt if they bought it for their kid or something, but WTF it was my only present!
Finders keepers assholes.
I think I'll leave it in front of their door tonight. They'll take it even though someone really did leave it for me, and then we get to see who's really honest hoo hoo ha ha ha. I don't care either way. The shirt was like 3 sizes too small.

Nothing special, just a supply of red, but any scotch is better than none.

I got some fresh mid top ones, I like them a lot, I like shoes. However I do not like the other pair my sister picked out, the ones with patent leather woodgrain trim...
My 70 something year old british grandma got me this (she got me a lot of stuff, most of it really good stuff) and I went into an uncontrollable fit of laughter as I opened it..
got some other stuff, dont really remember what though.

* A coffee thermo filled with half-dollars and dollar coins (for a total of $25).
* Some original artwork by my sister (who is a professional artist).
* A cool-looking mouse pad (or mouse rug as the brand calls it) that looks like an Arabic carpet, only it's mouse-pad-sized.

* Some towels
* Probably some other stuff that I'm forgetting
