My bride, my family and friends, and "Santa," were pretty good to me this year. :-) I got two new Tigger shirts, new measuring cups and spoons, Godzilla Tokyo SOS on DVD, the book "A Critical History of Toho's Godzilla Series," mocassins, a watch, a engraved pen set, chocolate-covered cherries, and, for the geek in me - the book "365 Days of the Golden Age of DC Comics," CD collections of Silver Age Iron Man and Avengers, and the prize of the day, a metal model of the 1950s Batmobile. Besides the material haul, I spent Friday with friends, Saturday with my family and today with Jenn's. A terrific Christmas all around. :-)

We were supposed to spend Christmas eve with my family...but our area got HAMMERED with snow on Wednesday and we wound up with a record snowfall for our area... 30 inches!
So, with everyone being snowed in, interstates shut down and a level 3 state of emergency declared in our county, TMT and I spent Christmas without our extended families this year. But we are all getting together New Years Eve here and exchanging gifts.

I did pretty well this year ^_^ Got alot of stuff I wanted, which makes it that much better, plus my dad agreed to sit through a game of Lord of the Rings: Trivial Pursuit...even though he's only seen the first film.
Anyway, on to the presents.
From Liz:
Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King EE (because it's tradition for her to get me the EE as a gift)
A green Frodo t-shirt from Hot Topic
a pair of checkered hoop earrings
a pair of black dice earrings
a Black Hills gold cross necklace....and yes, she spoils EVERYBODY like this, not just me.
From my other Sis:
10 dollars in cash
an Edward Scissorhands t-shirt from Hot Topic
From my Brother:
The 2005 LoTR wall calendar
15 dollars in cash
From my Dad:
a red Converse-ish watch keychain (because I have an obsession with Converse sneakers)
From my Mom & Dad:
A Pirates of the Caribbean t-shirt from Hot Topic
a photo of my siblings and I in a really nice frame
500 dollars for my summer trip
From my Aunt, Uncle, and Cousins:
An Old Navy Gift Card
From my Boyfriend:
Diamond stud earrings (which I didn't wear for two days, until he informed me that they were on warranty)
From Friends:
A White Stripes tour dvd
a plush Grumpy Bear
Reading all this I sound a little spoiled, but really I'm not. At least not in my opinion.
