Christmas Presents Created 10 years ago2013-12-25 16:43:44 UTC by Alabastor_Twob

So, what did everyone get for Christmas?

I got a new telescope, as well as a jumper and a battery powered hot water bottle.
I'm actually going to go outside in a few minutes to see if I can view a pass of the ISS. Miraculously, the skies seem to actually be clear, which is unusual enough for this country, even discounting the fact that the weather for the last week has been miserable.It is a Newtonian reflector telescope, with a 130mm aperture. Seen here with the non branded refractor telescope that I got for Christmas around 10-15 years ago. That one has a 30mm aperture, with some kind of insert behind the objective lens that limits it to around 15mm, so the difference between the two should be very noticeable.

I got one of those portable USB batteries for charging your cellphone, a t-shirt, and what's possibly the most horrible underwear in the world. Too lazy to take pictures now, though.

Your chairs are overturned.

I got a drill press and some tools. Also got some money which will most likely buy more tools...

I got colored pencils, construction paper, Ukulele lessons, razors, floss, and animal stickers. I know that doesn't sound like much but I love derpy stuff so I had a pretty awesome Christmas.

Not related to Christmas, the legal mitigation from the accident I had at work is settled. The lawyer is working to get me a bit of money which is nice.

Socks and boxers, a new pair of jungle camo converse hi-tops, bunch of DVDs I wanted, a £20 steam wallet coupon which I can't currently use because Steam is dying, The Last of Us and Beyond Two Souls on PS3, lots of chocolate, a box of various spicy goodness, a load of clothes, a couple of very thick onesies and a 32" LED TV to name a few.

Ukulele lessons

Does that come in a box?

I received a nice pair of quality leather shoes, a new shirt, jeans and... that's about it. I am content.

Bunch of cash
Battlefield 4
Bottle of Jack Daniels (Gone already)
Gift cards to various restaurants.

Steam is dying? What gives you that impression?

Rim, he means more he fact that Steam is being bombarded because of the Christmas stuff. I got a Steam card, too, and I can't activate it because Steam can't load the page.

Clothes, stuff, and a remote control helicopter (not one of those dinky little 2-3 inch tall ones, this one is around a foot tall).
I've also got a second monitor on hold, as I want to make sure this computer can actually HAVE a second monitor before she goes and buys one.
I think one of my internet buddies is getting me DayZ standalone, too.

I got a desk lamp, lots and lots of chocolate, a candle, 8gb SD card for my Raspberry Pi. Not much, but this was still quite nice. All of the money went out to buy new furniture, because my mom is moving to another room in our hous. I will get new room.

Skullcandy Earphones. :3 Shaped more like aerial 7 bullets in black. At least I dun has to carry beats studios all around the place.

I promise not to shoot you for beans
