Better to give than to receive a ton

This has to have been one of the best Christmases ever. I gave my fiancé a list of stuff and she gave me a list. Well let me tell you I got everything I wanted, from her and also from both our families. Here’s what I’ve gotten so far-

• the new Incubus DVD, Incubus Alive at Red Rocks, from my parents
  
• Ann Coulter’s book, How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must): The World According to Ann Coulter, from my parents
  
• $200 cash from my grandparents
  
• a $500 check from my parents
  
• tons of food gift certificates, including some for my true love; Quiznos
  
• a stocking full of candy and stuff
  
• Napoleon Dynamite DVD from my fiancé
  
• The Godfather Collection (Special Edition) from my fiancé
  
• Diary by Chuck Palahniuk, from my fiancé
  
• an American Eagle track jacket from my future in-laws
  
• a pair of pajama pants from my parents
  
• a pair of pajama pants and a pajama shirt from my fiancé’s grandma
  
• a new sweater from my grandparents
  
• $20 + an ASB Discount Card (very cool), from my aunt, uncle, and cousin
  
• a basket containing a bottle of sparkling pear, sparkling raspberry, and spiced punch drinks, two regular wine/champagne glasses and two heart shaped wine/champagne glasses that will have our (my fiancé and I) name’s and the date we get married inscribed on them
  
• and last but not least I finally got Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas from my wonderful fiancé
  

Not to shabby, huh? I couldn’t believe it either. It’s a ton off stuff, but I know I’ll put it all to good use. And don’t start thinking I’m a jerk now because I got people some pretty good things too. For my fiance I got a new Melie Bianco purse, a bottle of Dessert Creamy, a $75 gift certificate to Forever 21, a new pair of sun glasses from Tilly's, and three new bras from Victoria’s Secret (she’s a 30D if you can believe it. They don’t even make that size!). For my parents I got a new cordless phone (the old one was dead). For my sister’s family I got (mostly for the kids) the Veggie Tales: Ultimate Silly Songs Countdown. And for my brother I got a $25 gift Certificate to Best Buy.

I spent most of Christmas with my fiancé and her family, although I did hang out with my family for a few hours on Christmas Eve. I watched some great Christmas movies too, including Home Alone, Prancer, A Christmas Story, and National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation (which I was a little disappointed in). If you’ve read this far, let me know how you made out this Christmas, now, before you change your mind.
