Well you are doing quite well so far, my friend.

My family and I just opened our one Christmas Eve gift, and they totally surprised me with the Premium XBox 360 and Perfect Dark Zero.

More gifts from them and miss imp13 coming tomorrow (as if I needed anything else).

I'm so thankful for it, I honestly had no idea. I don't know how they even managed to find one, but man I'm excited.
 
Let's see...

-Fudge from the landlords
-U2 Chicago DVD from the BF-He decided to give it to me early. :angry: and :happy: at the same time... :lol:
-Peppermint Cheesecake from a coworker
-Fleece Jacket from boss
-Pumpkin Bread and Chex mix from bf's grandmother.
-Mug full of hershey kisses from Yankee Swap at work.
 
I'll do a full list tomorrow night, but my mom surprised the hell out of me tonight when I opened up a brand new Italian charm bracelet to replace the one I'm almost 100% certain I lost in Pittsburgh back in October. She even started me on the charms, getting me a cat looking at the moon, a martini, and a princess crown. :sad:

My mom. :heart:

So far I've gotten the pleasure of listening to my parents argue while I was on the phone with them, and my mom has moved into her oh so annoying "tune out and pretend I don't remember anything anyone said in the last week mode".
I am heading over there in an hour and I hope there is something other than that to look forward to *praying smiley*:)
 
From my aunt: $50, a backpack

From my grandmother: $20

From my parents:

A $300 Gift Card, which is great because I can use it for online purchases or itunes or anything like that, as well as in store purchases.

A book about Michael Jordan - "Driven From Within"

A Sweater

Candy in my stocking - A big Swiss chocolate bar(Swiss chocolate is the best chocolate in the world, bar none), a pack of Starburst, and two bags of Skittles.


Finally, there's a good chance that my cousin who I am close with will sell me his Playstation 2(which is in good working condition) for $100 in the next couple weeks - it won't really be a gift since I'll be paying for it, but it's Christmas so we'll consider it a gift. If that happens, I'll use some of my Christmas money to buy NBA 2K6 for PS2.

Merry Christmas :)

:shame:

It's all about Live! At least for Xbox and PS2. The Xbox 360 Live is kinda lacking. The camera angles are terrible and they totally got rid of Superstar moves and Franchise mode. Instead of a new graphics engine, they should have just ported it from the versions of Live 06 that already existed.

Oh, l've been a Live shipper most of my life. But the Live series has been doing downhill. I'm big on dynasty mode and in Live 05, it was worse than it had been in recent years. The whole PDA thing is just an annoyance, the trades were unrealistically difficult to pull off and unrealistically limited - only two teams and three players per team allowed per trade, you still can't hire/fire head coaches, etc. You can no longer create custom teams in Live. I got 2K3 when it came out for Dreamcast(along with Live 03), and it was pretty damn good. Right now, most reviews I'm reading say 2K6 is better than Live 06, and Live 05 was a significant step down for the series, so I'm going with 2K6 this year.
