Well, it's officially Christmas in Charas Time (it's been a couple hours for me now in EST). So I'm making the usual annual "It's Christmas!" thread, even though there have been a couple others. But they started before it was actually Christmas.
I'm going to bed now and will post what I got when I get it. I've already gotten the Simpsons Movie and money from my couple of Christmas Eve exchanges.
Merry Christmas Charas! :)
-
Well, we each opened two gifts on Christmas Eve. So far I've raked up:
$50 Gift Card for Wal-Mart
A really nice jacket from Wilson's Leather ^_^
I'll get the rest of my gifts in a few hours >_>
-
Yay, Christmas!
I won't be able to open anything until later (it's midnight now for me, I open stuff in the morning). Except a $50 gift card for Borders I got from my aunt up in Oregon. Hopefully Santa won't take a dump in my chimney or something.
-

Do we really need to have a second Christmas topic?
Anyway, I've got some very neat gifts. Mostly One Piece and Death Note manga. Fricken awesome!
-
Well, the other one was by Rev911 and two days before Christmas with very little to DO with the holiday, so.... yeah.

Christmas lateness time:
From my mom:
-A hair straightener that works on wet hair (ah, the joys of femaleness)
-A Full Metal Alchemist calendar (am I shameless enough to hang it up? well, yes I am ^^)
-Lindt chocolate snowmen
-A really comfy hand-crocheted hat
-Cinnamon disks
-'His Dark Materials' trilogy *glares at roland*.... alas, with the movie cover.... *gag* But now I don't have to scrounge at the library every time I wanna reread it
From my sister:
-A really nice Squall figurine (the sibs JUST discovered Newbury comics, it seems... *shrug*)
-Pocky
-Lindt mint-dark chocolate truffles
From my brother:
-Plushies of Sephiroth and Vincent from FFVII (how did that villain suddenly become cuddly?)
-Vincent figurine (I think they overestimate my FF enthusiasm....)
Of course, my brother bought my sister a Sora figurine, and I was forced to beat the crap out of it using the Sephy plush. ^^ Never had such a fangirltastic Christmas. It was nice, though-- my mom works at a church an a funeral home owner gave her a gift certificate for a really big hunk of prime rib from a fancy Italian market.... best Christmas dinner ever, and I don't usually eat beef.
-
Haha, FF Sephiroth Plushie! Thats really a thing that would be fun to have.

Just got my stuff from my dad.
Rifle cleaning kit
Brick of .22 ammo
Laser pointer that shocks you
Silly string
Silly putty
Little Feat entire collection CDs
Portfolio case
Box of condoms XD (My mom thought he had sent me some a week ago when she was feeling up my mail, so he decided he actually would)

I love that album... I still prefer Octavarium though. They'll never be able to top that song.

It looks like a tiny gun. You pull the trigger assuming it shoots the laser, but the trigger shocks you. You have to pull the hammer to shoot the laser.
