Happy Holidays!

I just wanted to wish everyone a fun and Happy Holiday season for 2008/2009. I know I'm a little late for Christmas, but I still hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas holiday! I know I did! Since my gift exchanges aren't finished, I still feel like it's Christmas.

This was probably the BEST Christmas that I've had in my entire life. Not because I got a ton of stuff that I wanted (even though I did), but because everyone was able to get together without conflict and just have a good time. I also enjoyed the fact that everyone got so excited when they opened my gifts to them. It makes me feel good when I know that they won't be exchanging their gifts on 'Box Day.'

My big gift this year was an iPod touch, which is amazing but I don't have the money just yet to buy music for it. If I could find any of my CDs, I could just load them onto iTunes, but no such luck there. So, all I can really use it for right now is checking the weather, looking up videos on Youtube, leaving notes for myself, adding things in my calendar or contacts list (which I really should use to keep track of everyone and their addresses!), and a few other assorted features. Even though I don't have music on it yet, it's still pretty freaking awesome!

I got tons of great stuff at Jake's family Christmas yesterday. A few articles of clothing, some smell-goods, a movie, a cookbook!, a talking Grinch plush, boots!, ruby earrings!, a beautiful heart necklace!, a couple of non-winning scratch-offs, and some candies for my stocking.

All-in-all, it was an awesome Christmas and I still have at least one more exchange left, so it'll keep being awesome for at least another day!
