From my fiancée I got a Dell Inspiron Zino media center pc, a Dell Inspiron 15 laptop, a foldable mountain bike and a 2 year membership to 24 Hour Fitness. She got a digital camera with a memory card filled with pictures of Bali, Indonesia. A half hour later, she got the plane tickets and hotel reservations for the actual trip.

Brilliant! I'm in Bali at the moment, it's great. Hope you're coming in the summer. Enjoy your Christmas Break and Indonesia :)

My whole family felt entirely spoiled this year so next year we're ditching gifts and donating to the Pinball Clement Foundation (http://www.mpcf.ca/).

Anywho, Neoprene iPad Case, microSD card for phone, desperately needed wallet, RobotShop gift card.

Sony LiveView controller for my Android - haven't played with it yet but hoping it's a good prototype of what might be increasingly common auxiliary controller for mobile devices.

Mongoose poop coffee beans.

Hopefully Metaprogramming Ruby but it's yet to arrive...

A Faith No More t-shirt that says, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY FUCKER".

Got Dance Central for my sister, for her xbox Kinect, it's awesome.

Happy days :)

  Four days off!

  Snow! (A rarity where I live.)

  A very, very productive day for some of my websites. :-) :-)

We've wanted to go to Bali for a while, so we're really excited!
