Now a few comments about my gifts. I loved them all, on the whole. But my mom is STILL buying me stuff that SHE wants me to wear, and not as much the stuff that I want to wear. Such as the sweater (which I don't wear any of), and one of the shirts she got me was BABY BLUE. For God's sake Mom, do you REALLY think I would wear anything baby blue? (Well, except for one dress shirt I have, for formal occasions...) But I'm going to exchange them for things that I WILL wear, and she has no problems with that. (After seeing the baby blue shirt on me, she agreed that it wasn't me... BAH... :P) Okay, score one for me. But all in all, it was a good Christmas. I might be buying a webcam tomorrow, with some of the money I got, and a few CDs, DVDs, etc. That is, if I have time between jobs. Otherwise, it'll just have to wait until the weekend.

Merry Christmas all, and talk to you soon! (I hope...)
