iPod Touch and a gaming mouse! My family is learning

On the negative side, two of the people I got iPod nanos for already got iPods for Christmas, so now I have to find alternate gifts for them. Boxing day here I come I guess.

Yeah, that does suck. I found out a friend of mine had the exact same gift I got her. Now I have to find the stupid receipt.

mostly clothes (which I wanted) but the little bro who normally gets me a season of Scrubs for my birthday and then Christmas (May then December) surprised me by not getting me it this time around. He isn't a sports fan and doesn't follow hockey at all, but got me this with the official frame and everything, it put a big smile on my face this morning:

I got snowflakes on CalgaryPuck and I love em! Nice work guys!

I got one of those "super drying" towels for hockey (half the size of a normal towel, but sucks moisture like you wouldn't believe), and a nice digital camera.

But the most fun was that I gave my parents a digital frame loaded with about 500 pictures of me. They went nuts for it.

That is a sweet haul. I didn't get any flames gear this year, which puzzles me a bit lol. I'm pretty sure my friends know I'm a big flames fan. I mean, my best friend should know lol. Oh well, what they got me was still awesome.

Lol yeah, I toyed with playing around with the forum colours to make them more visible, but the flakes were just a whim while I was trying to get FutureShop's boxing day stuff and I still had presents to wrap.

Maybe next year I'll find a Christmas coloured theme!
