Xmas Presents

The Old Ye Bard · Post by **The Old Ye Bard** » Sun Dec 24, 2006 10:04 am

What did you get?

I got some small stuff, a tablet (Some people call a sketch screen) and I also got a $200 watch (NZ dollar, so I think that is around 150 US $).

Merry Xmas.

Why wait 12 hours when you could just travel to NZ to get your presents? lol

Merry Christmas! I can't believe I did so well this year. Probably best ever.

- Cannon CanoScan LiDE 60 - Scanner (I can SCAN again! My good scanner died about a month ago.)
- Cannon Pixma iP6000D - Printer (Specifically for art prints.)
- Books on landscape, anatomy, faces, and pencil drawing techniques.
- Pack of my favorite Dollar General pencils. (Which I swear by, by the way.)
- Micron pens in varying sizes.
- "Gladiator" on DVD (Armor inspiration!)
- Gift card for DLing music.
- GIHUGIC candy-cane.
- Three quality polished hardwood back-scratchers. (With little rollie massager thingies on the other side. Neck cramps from sitting over a tablet for hours.)

-----------------------------------------------------

And I haven't even gone to visit my relatives yet! Mostly clothes there though, methinks. Still, Grandma's cheesecake can't be missed! And Nomadic, what is a timtam? Awesome that you got KOTN, too.

TOYB, do you mean something similar to a Wacom pad? That's great. Invaluable, if you aren't in love with your mouse, like I am.

........ Still holding out for that Nissan 350z.

Post by **Haplo** » Mon Dec 25, 2006 5:10 am

ZOMG I totally am actually asking for Gladiator as well. But I don't know what I got, because it's December 25th, 12:20 AM at the moment.

It's a Genius tablet, not a Wacom Tablet (Which is way out of my price range).

Also a Timtam is like several layers of wafer, covered in caramel, and then covered in milk chocolate. It's a biscuit. Something I haven't been able to eatfor some time (I'm vegan).

No such thing as a vegetarian.

I'm a vegan, there's a difference

And yes vegetarians do exist, like Eskimos and unicorns.

TimTams are high quality and well-known chocolate biscuits in Australia. But they are only sold in Australia so when foreigners come here and try them they get a little obsessed - and then when they go back they can't buy them

Yeah it's sweet I got KOTN. But Oblivion doesn't run on my computer. I think I'll be sticking with only modding for Morrowind for a good while until I get my PC up to scratch.

Sniper4 · Post by **Sniper4** » Mon Dec 25, 2006 5:00 pm

From my mom, I got a shitload of really expensive candy from Swiss Colony (about $135 worth), and she's going to buy me a new TV for my "cave." (I use our family room as my gaming area. It is set lower than the rest of the house, and I keep it really dark down here, to give it the "I'm living in my mother's basement" feeling. That's why she calls it my "cave"

.)

My dad bought me Gothic III and KOTN, along with meats and cheeses from Swiss Colony.

My mom was going to buy Gothic III and KOTN for me, instead of my dad buying it, but she couldn't find those two around here. My dad refuses to let her pay him for them, so he can take credit for them. My mom feels bad now

. It was her that told him to look for the games, since she couldn't find them, but she didn't know that he was going to take credit for them as well

You know, we could use your flawless interior-making skills on Oblivion.

I think I beat you: A single chocolate snowman, and two of my favourite fruit.

The main part was the meal though, a plate full of sweets for everyone with a single orange to slightly balance it out, and two more (general) plates full of sweets incase someone's stock ran out.

Well, I received
-some shirts
-new wallet
-NBA 2K7
-Flight Simulator X -- Woo hoo!

I couldn't decide what I wanted this year, so my grandma, aunt, and mom all got me a couple of shirts, so I think I good on those for a long while... and FSX is pretty sweet, except for the fact that it takes about 30 minutes to load one flight on my computer...
