Ok... uh... I GOT THE LAPTOP! Alright, guess that's one way to just get that out of the way :) This thing just rocks... I re-installed Windows (default install was crap), and then proceeded to install Ubuntu Linux 6.10 Edgy Eft (LP isn't going to be happy...) on it. I've spent most of the morning and all afternoon so far configuring it. Still need to do a bunch of work on Windows, including installing games.

Carrying on... I also got Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter :) (oh what a surprise, harr! :P), a $20 gift certificate for a local mall, $90 cash from various relatives, some clothes, assorted chocolates, and.. oh, get this... 4 Bacardi Breezers (rum coolers), and a 1 litre bottle of Vex (vodka cooler :D). From my parents. Overall, a good haul, but I would have been happy with just the laptop ;)

Time sure flies huh? I for one am looking forward to Christmas for the most part (especially getting that laptop :D), but I'm also a little disappointed because I am not spending it where I really want to be, or with the people that matter most to me (you know who you are). Oh well, maybe next year...

Anyway, I've got a metric ton of e-cards to send.. ah screw it, no I don't. Just a few people, but by golly they're going to get their cards!

Oooh! I should make a Christmas theme for the site :P

Just thought I'd put together a little Christmas list I can direct my family and friends to, and perhaps even generous strangers out there :) (Ya.. right, like anyone else reads my blog...)
