Well?

Mine was a quiet family affair, just what I'd hoped for :)

Jenny's folks and my folks spoilt us rotten! Got 26 DVD's from my brother FFS! His reason? To try and replace those stolen :) Awww :)


How about you guys?

Cool.

I had a pretty good christmass too.

I got a bunch of computer parts I can use to upgrade my pc.

One of them was an ol' dvd player that still works. I have it plugged into an inclosure that was also given to me to converted the dvd to an external with usb.

We also had good dinner and evil dessert. I might have gained a few pounds. hehe

Mines was quiet (whereas I expected chaos and mayhem=hehehe) AND I've definitely gained a few more pounds. Seems the only thing that got stuffed WASN'T the turkey! hehehe

I got a Bad Cat calendar (good for 365 days!), an Enya CD, cookies, fruit and a bottle of wine from my neighbors, some cash, lots of phone calls and some English Breakfast Tea in my stocking (as a stuffer). :shock:

All in all, the best Christmas I've had in years!!! :D :D

I'm with Trish on this one, it was definitely the best Christmas I've had for a very long time (possibly ever). It was divided over several days - Friday night I had Christmas dinner with my family, Saturday I had Christmas lunch with friends and Sunday I had Christmas lunch with another friend's family. It made everything a lot more relaxed and less rushed/pressured. :)

Frank, that was lovely of your brother to do that :)

Rainmoon, my brother gave me F.E.A.R. (pc game) which has given me a good excuse to upgrade my video card and processor - more so my processor since it's only a Athlon 2600. I keep forgetting that my "new" computer isn't so new anymore! I've had it for two years :/

Mine was quiet.

::: shrugs :::

Not sure what I was expecting, but whatever it was, they way Christmas actually fell out was not it.

Prolly cuz this was the first time in like 12 years that I've not been with someone on Christmas. Rather disappointing I guess.

Oh Immaculately Intoxicated Oracle, I pose this question to you:

How was the Christmas pudding? Did it turn out well?

My Christmas was quite unspectacular, probably ranking low on my totem poll if only because I had no family to spend it with *sniffle*.

However, Affie and my roommates and I sat about watching movies (A Christmas Story & Christmas Vacation). I drank an entire pot of coffee by myself and made breakfast for everyone (okay, so my roommate actually did most of the cooking, BUT I BOUGHT IT DAMMIT!)

So... what am I, then? Christmast pudding!!?? :shock: *sniffle*

There were 3 hours in the evening that I was HOME ALONE and it was [b:0242ae0926]too[/b:0242ae0926] quiet!! Like a proverbial tomb. *sigh* I would have welcomed the company. ;)

Your ICQ still works, right!?? You do know how to use it, dontcha? You just pucker up the 'ol finger tip and "push" the button. :twisted: That's how close my little SoC "brothers" are. HUGS!!

::winks at Gabe:: Next time, give me an *Uh Oh!* I'll be here. :D

I tried the Chronicles of Riddick game. Damn that's laggy. I need to upgrade too. I'm on a P3 933mhz. LOL. The game lags so much that it's at 1 frame per 2 seconds. LMFAO :lol:

I need whole new motherboard and everything... well mostly.

I also have the new Silent Hill demoes that wont even play because they say my video card is dated. It's a GeForce 4 damnit! It appears I need to get a GeForce 6 with new motherboard.

I know what I'll be saving up for...
