Santa Festivus was good to Whiney.

Laptop (I'm going on tour in March)
Simpsons Season 5
A copy of Fricke/Ahearn's Yes Yes Y'all
New Kangol (just like in the "Christmas In Hollis" video!!!!!)
New jacket
Jelly beans galore.

Probably the first xmas since I was 11 with no Cds under the tree (the list I gave "santa" had so much obscure bullshit on it that the local store owner probably threw his hands up in defeat/digust)

How was Festivus for you?

A couple necklace/earring sets from Josh from this costume jewelry store I shop at in Lincoln Park.

Charlie gave me a new wallet.

And from my mom I got a pair of shoes I may be returning, and this cool Lavendar filled blanket that you can heat up in the microwave. I love these things so it's neat.

And we're going to my dad's in three hours so I'll add to this later.

I got the usual baffling array of tat.

At least my dad gave me money so I can buy the Seinfeld DVD boxset.

What happened to your face, man?

As someone who trims his beard by cutting random tufts out it, I greatly admire that impeccably groomed facial hair of yours.

Now it's all obscured by warping.

E Stone used some kind of Butthole Surfers technology to make me into a Silver Krylon addled freakazoid Hank, Jr. :wink:
