Dec. 27th, 2004 04:25 pmIt occurs to me that I didn't mention any of my Christmas presents from my family. Well, I'm very pleased with what I got, so if you care, here's
My mom gave me her old digital camera. I say "old", but she's only had it a year, I think. She upgraded to a newer model. It's a nice Pentax Optio, about the size of a business card and maybe 3/4" thick. Takes pretty pictures.
The 'rents also gave me a gumball machine type thing meant to hold Jelly Bellies. Also, a shitload of Jelly Bellies. The machine is now set up in my kitchen, and I have exhorted Billy to eat as many as he wants so I don't eat them all. There is something extraordinarily satisfying about a vending-type setup like that where you don't actually need to put in money.
My dad made me some homemade beef jerky. Alas, it's a bit on the dry side--his last batch was better. There is teryaki flavour and curry flavour, which is slightly odd in a jerky. But saying "curry jerky" in a fake Indian accent is quite amusing and makes me think of Apu from The Simpsons.
Red terry bathrobe from Vicky's. Smashing. Also black velvet slippers with big pink bows which aren't my style and don't go with the robe, but are very comfy and needed.
CDs. Steeleye Span, Nick Cave (both double albums!) and...Billy Idol's greatest hits. Awwwww yeah. *drools over the cover image*
That's most of the actual stuff. They also gave me a bit of cash and an admonition to buy myself some pants that fit. And skirts that fit. Yes'm.
