Santa used to hook me up with cash.

One year I cleared almost 250!

Now I get to ask him for an electronics tool set this year. And guiness pajamas...

I hate guiness.

Nothing. And I won't be getting anything. No family in town and my gf and I broke up just over a month ago, so no gift there either. Meh. I'll be working anyways, so I guess my gift is going to be a ridiculously large paycheck.

I got a new snowboarding helmet and goggles. I know this because I had to help my mom shop for them because she didn't know what to look for. I'm quite pleased with them.

I got a new Graggia espresso machine. I know, because I picked it out, and the giver wanted to make sure I had plenty of time working with it so's I could crank out the Christmas coffee drinks tomorrow.

I'm excited
