One for the Money
Right. So that’s done. This year I received the correct amount of clothing: 2 shirts, 2 pairs of socks (taken from my father in-law because I am a failure at packing), 2 vests and 1 pair of pants. My body is like the Ark. Woot. Instead of clothing I received fun stuff: a DS, a Nano-rific music device, a large stack of porn, a NAS, a campin’ stove, and some other things.
Currently I am watching an NECN report on Kwanzaaaa. It looks like this is coming becoming more popular, but that practitioners are worried that it will become commercialized like Christmas. Haha. If you really think about it all American holidays are commercial… even personal ones like birthdays and anniversaries. I mean there is Christmas (gifts), Valentine’s Day (candy/flowers), Halloween (candy), Mother’s Day (candy/flowers), e&c (candy/flowers). The only holiday I can think of that actually does not involve me buying something for someone is Thanksgiving (food/drink). Hmm…
Now go, kids, go.
Good haul this year…I’m jealous.

You got a lot more fun stuff than me!
I’m jealous too. The Volcano Book was cool. My drug induced haze is slowly fading. I wish I could say it was enjoyable.
I would like to see Dan and Steve before they leave.
I won’t make it to Japan soon and I feel the same way about Texas. I have never seen as much razorwire, its like sheep in Scotland, its/their everywhere.
