Well, it's almost Christmas time. Now, you might know that I am not a Christian, but my family are Christians (in the nominal sense) and so I go along and celebrate the holiday with them.
Having a job that pays well led me to make this the first Christmas where I can really be generous and get gifts people actually want. So, I dropped about 200+ dollars all together on gifts.
For my mother, I bought her a ring.
For my father, I bought him a book on the history of soccer.
For my sister, I bought her a three pack of the old Muppets movies.
For my cousin D., I bought him a Justice League DVD.
and for my aunt A., I bought her season 6 of Curb Your Enthusiasm.
I'm looking forward to receiving gifts, as well. I think my mother planned to buy me Guitar Hero III for the PS2. Otherwise, I don't really know what else I'm getting from everyone. A lot of my family members, like my cousin and aunt are pretty poor, so I don't expect anything back from them. However, my cousin always gives me advice and is like a father to me; and my aunt was there for me when I was in the hospital, and I think they deserve a gift.
I just wish the gifts would come in time for Christmas. I ordered them a few days ago and they won't be arriving until after New Years....oh well. Everyone seems to be fine with that, but I'd like it if I could just give them their gifts on Christmas.
In other news...
I can't really tell if the Invega is working. I'm having a bad day today. The other days were good.
I still haven't heard from Mallory...maybe I should write that off if I don't hear from her by New Years Day....(she told me in September that she rarely checks e-mail...with the holidays, I'm sure she'll have an opportunity, tho)
