Genius. I couldn't use it but I COULD use a few house cleaning services.

I found out I'm still on my ex wife's mortgage. Other than that I haven't used my cane since I got off work last Friday.

Win some lose some.

I might get myself a tattoo.

sure, Erath is one of the old school wineries around here. I got a couple of my favorites (which I'd recommend) - Ken Wright Cellars and The Four Graces.

One of the first things we did when we moved in together was started paying a cleaning lady. Worth it at 3 x the price....and since I live in AL you'll pay 3x the price.

I'm still in Korea so a bunch of people sent me American food that I can't get here, which is nice. I got a sweater, a jacket, a coat, and a scarf from my wife, (I got married about two months ago, but I guess I didn't really mention it here) because she's convinced I'm going to freeze to death if she doesn't do something about it. Some socks, an $80 gift card from Amazon, which is important if you have a kindle and the nearest English language book store is two hours away. It was a nice Christmas, but I'm looking forward to being back in America for the next one.

Wow. Congrats on the scarf!

bluejayway · **Posted:** Sun Dec 30, 2012 10:02 am

Wtg, Leon. I also got a scarf, as ever! Nothing music related except a couple of 33 1/3 books - home downloading may not have killed music in the end, but it did make it a less satisfying gift.

Socks, underwear, Os jersey (glad to have moved away from the braves with the trial return of racist laughing Indian logo!), fitbit, fancy candy, rei gift card, trip to visit long missed and less mobile buddy in morro bay.

Damn son. That's a serious piece. Merry Christmas to you.

I got:

Clothes and gift cards for more clothes
Clark's shoes
Springsteen Bio
Smartwool socks (several pairs)
Regal Cinemas gift cards

Best things I got were total surprises:

Bose Soundlink II bluetooth speaker - Unfortunately I don't keep any music on my phone so the bluetooth feature does me no good but I'm thinking I'll now keep my old Iphone 3 and put music on it to be able to use this. Still, I can plug my Ipod into this. Awesome sound, portable, rechargeable, and has around 4 hours of battery life when charged.

NCAA football. Totally random but I love it. I haven't had a football since I was probably 12 years old. Apparently I had talked about wanting one at a tailgate at some point this year.
