well since usually gifts are spread out over 8 days, i guess its sorta sad, now i have no more gifts. maybe i should decide to celebrate xmas this year to makeup for it in a month.

since i'm sure those of you wondering are wondering what i got:
dave + allie got me a magnum of 1980 heitz cabernet sauvigon (i'm not sure what i'll do with it, maybe my birthday, but they readily admitted it was a useless gift)

from mommie + klaus
a pair of candle sticks (you think they're pushing the jewish thing?) they gold, but relatively nice
a lawn frog made out of random metal pieces
a framed b+w picture of some fence in stormville or somewhere. it looks nice
a gallileo thermometer that hasn't arrived because it was shipped to ca by rodent, however its suposedly cooler because it is ballons not just glass ball. i'll have to wait and see
a set of blue flannel sheets for my new sized bed
i think that's it, but maybe i forgot something.

since everyone's heading out to the malls, (you need to brave multiple?) now you know what i got, so you don't repeat. i know this may require lawn frogs being returned, but its for the best.

i'm tired and sick of trying to type with my elbows on my bed, so off to sleep. wine tasting at camus tomorrow, and then i have no idea what. mommie and klaus are leaving at 9 or so, so its a free day without them.
