Oh one of my favorite gifts was this small multicolored LED lavalamp thing with suspended glitter that sparkles in the multicolored LEDs when you shake it. It's so awesome! My sister in law always comes up with cool stuff like that. Last year she got us all pink squishy rings of power that flash in red, green, and blue when you squeeze them.

160Gb ipod (my last one broke a year ago; I'm a music lover so having twice as much space as my current collection makes me really happy ), that iTrip thing for your car, Super Mario Galaxy, Fire Emblem, the big Harry Potter DVD trunk collector set, a 35-piece power tool kit, Robot Chicken season 2, the Futurama movie, and the Simpson's movie.
Pretty awesome. Now I just need to spend my xmas money on Guitar Hero 3 and a giant hard drive ^_^

I was able to get Guitar Hero 3 for the Wii and use my Barnes and Noble giftcard on some more manga. It was a truly good Christmas. Now if I just had the free time to enjoy all this stuff.

This was the year of the vouchers - Tony and I got movie vouchers (to the premium cinemas, complete with a bar voucher) and a really nice dinner voucher.
And Tony gave me a voucher for a Feed the Animals tour of the National Zoo. It's really neat - you go with a zookeeper and get to feed the giraffes and lions and tigers (and tigons) and lots of other animals.
The best bit was I got to give my mother-in-law the shawl it has taken me two years to knit. Luckily, she liked it.

What's the point of the Harry Potter treasure chest set? Is there really anybody out there that likes Harry Potter enough to buy it, and yet doesn't already own the books? Shouldn't they just sell the trunk without the books?
