Christmas '08

Well, I was awoken this morning by screams of some sort, apparently someone was on the Wii Fit and was shocked to find that their net weight loss this week had 'only' been 5 pounds. Now this may have set the tone however not me, I awoke, bleary eyed from writing my previous post last night determined not to let any earthly concerns and bickering ruin this one day. My brother is currently playing his new piano to great applause, it lends a slightly gothic atmosphere to today's proceedings as he insists on playing the Tetris theme at a slow tempo on the church organ setting, apparently this is how the Tetris theme should be played. I was the one who wrapped his piano present, took me an hour to wrap it, and it was damn good wrapping I'll tell you now, I winced as he ripped it off in 10 seconds, how I'll deal with it when I'm wrapping bikes and stuff that Santa had to drop off early because of his workload for my own kids I don't know...

I do believe I've done throughly well this year. The gifts I recieved include:-

Apple stock, that's right, I'm a filthy Apple shareholder now, I profit off all those fanboys and pretentious losers buying stuff they don't know how to use.

From Mr Tom Jones

Apologies for the shakiness, the quality of the photo is a tad poor (Damn iPhone direct picasa uploading service being so convenient) I blame the light myself.

A Colbert Christmas (The Greatest Gift of all), no notes necessary

Tom Jones Greatest Hits.... I guess that'll teach me to mention him on my blog and talk about him incessantly for 3 weeks afterwards, it's now on my iPhone and will keep me happy on my travels.

And of course from Miss Nastassia Dhanraj (Who seems to know me far better than I gave her credit for) got me HANNAH MONTANA STATIONARY :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D I've got loads of stuff to do on planes and such and I'll be using this stuff when I need to write something so (thanks Nastassia)

My Aunt Elizabeth and Uncle Ian got us awesome presents again this year (They're presents are usually pretty awesome, but the last few years they've stepped up a few gears) We got recycled beer bottle glasses, beaker and wine glass style, they're so awesome I had to put a photo in:-

From Mr Tom Jones

As for me, I'm off 'cross the oceans, where I'll end up, goodness knows. But I've got an ideas or two, the Jonas Brothers are at Times Square this New Years Eve..... might be interesting... Doctor Who was brilliant, I am a hardcore Doctor Who fan, I particularly liked the little nods to Dickens throughout this years Christmas special. Photos from my travels will follow, whenever the heck I can find a Wi-Fi connection....

Fare thee well.
