A Merry Christmas to everyone! Hope it finds everyone well and happy!

Yes yes, so the most popular question: What did you get for Christmas?

Well, personally I got 6 of the new My Little Ponys, 2 of the For Dummies books (photography and digital photography), those go with the new digital camera, some candy, a voice-activated Kacheek, some stamps, and a few other goodies.

You know, I had forgotten that Christmas only lasts for 20 minutes or so after all presents have been open and then it becomes the bonus clean-up-the-house-and-put-away-all-your-crap day. I did get to send out a nice holiday card to everyone though. If you didn't get it then I either have the wrong email address or no email address at all. I can still send you a late one if you let me know.

My family used to have traditions.. I love traditions.. I still have the traditions.. they're just in my world now. Maybe I should write them down in case I forget.. Though writing down pretty much ensures my forgetting.

Oh, if anyone is curious to see what it's like to be in a house without Christmas spirit on Christmas Eve or the entire day of Christmas you're welcome to stop by here. It'll at least be one of those days each year.. unless you're unlucky and catch a good moment.

With love......

Question for Today
What did you get for the holidays?

Why are gifts the main focus of the holidays? It can't be getting along? Or giving? Or being together as a family? Or spreading good cheer? Or spending time with neighbors? Or visiting the hospital or soup kitchen? Or not being greedy and selfish like me? Such a strange world we live in..

Yay, MLPs!

QfT
GBA SP with Sword of Mana and FF Tactics ADV; LotR: RotK and Panzer Dragoon Orta for Xbox; cheat guides for RotK, FF, Fire Emblem, and SoM; earbuds; 120 PRISMACOLORS!; a bunch of Dragons sets from Mega Bloks; Zoids Firefox; some NeoPets plushies, and some other small miscellany.

The focus of the holidays was never meant to be any of those things, no matter what our lovely consumerist world tries to force down your throat. It's not even family or friends or snow or traditions, it's only supposed to be one thing: Jesus. People need to stop taking Christ out of Christmas.
