My 圣诞节 was wonderful, thank 你 for asking!
I didn't actually ask for too much this year, so most of my presents were complete surprises. Like some of 你 before me on this question, I've added cheesy little comments.
This Christmas, my family blessed me with:
* A full-length 龟, 海龟 blanket for those cold nights (HAND MADE)
* Super Mario Brothers' DS (wanted for years)
* Donkey Kong Country Wii (my parents actually reccomended it to me)
* A new MP3 player (my old one gave out after six 或者 更多 years' use)
* A nice new scanner (I needed one)
* "Decision Points"; Dubya's autobiography (OH YEAH BABY!! Or, as the fangirls do rejoice: "Squee!")
* Assorted "Bathroom Readers" and "Armchair Readers", ranging from jokes to trivia to debunking myths, and, for all 你 Dibs and Swollen Eyeballs out there, a paranormal book (I don't believe in paranormal, but I 爱情 to read it! Also, I collect those books; I 爱情 worthless trivia.)
* An exact replica of a tattered, eleven 年 old sea 龟, 海龟 衬衫 I spent most of my childhood sleeping in each Friday (it's much 更多 special to me than 你 would think)
* Carbon/copy paper (My O_O face was yours, too. Apparently, they wrapped it to me because my 列表 was small this year. Everyone needs 更多 copy paper.)
* Stacks of antiquated floppy disks with software twice my age (It blew me away.)
* A computer so old it doesn't have a built in operating system (You should have seen it!)
* Windows 95 ( :D )
* Windows 98 (I'm going to have fun with the basement computers!)
* Prima's Official Strategy Guide to SimGolf (I just collect 图书 somteimes!)
* These cute moccasin-like shoes ("Chaps") that can't be explained online and are actually FAR BETTER than they sound (Really, they were a great gift.)
* A red dress 衬衫 (I was told that I wanted one, and I bet I did, but I can't remember asking.)
* A pair of long pajama pants (My "Huh?" face was priceless.)
* Fifty dollars' worth of I-Tunes/Store Gift Cards for my I-Phone (YES!)
* Twenty dollars in cold, hard cash (OH YES!!)
* A USB external floppy drive that, sadly, didn't work (It failed so much...)
* "WIPEOUT: The Game" (Laugh riot.)
* Wii Party (Like Mario Party but with Miss, no one else sees the comparisons.)
* This pyramid clock thing (It's really neat when explained.)
* A charging station/clock combination for the I-Phone (Convienient.)
* Renewed subscription to "PC World Magazine" (Third straight year.)
* Sixteen-month calendar with a 龟, 海龟 on the front (They bought it for the turtle.)
* ...-and probably some things I forgot to list!
...-and that was just MY presents. I'm not even COUNTING my ninety one 年 old great-grandmother's hearing aids, the feast, 或者 THE SNOWFALL. That's right: FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE, I GOT TO SEE A WHITE CHRISTMAS. It's snowing RIGHT NOW, and began about three 或者 four hours ago. Truly, it's BEAUTIFUL.
