Title: So What Is Santa Bringing You This Year?
Post by: KingSparta on December 15, 2004, 01:23:46 pm
Here I Sit Waiting For Santa To get here Sometimes I Think If I Go To Sleep Early It Will Come Faster.

The Tree Is Up (Fiber Optics Tree) I Spray Pine Scent To Make It Feel Like Back When We Had Real Trees To Chop Down, Then Kill It By Giving It No Water Or Some Other Toxic Drink And Then Drag It To The Curb Like A Unwanted Garbage Bag That Is Starting To Smell (You Know What I mean).

At Any Hoo

So What Is Santa Bringing You This 25th (Or 24th If You Just Can't Wait)?

If Santa gets clearance from the CCP, he will bring me some nacho chips, Dinty Moore beef stew, taco seasoning, and my sister's fudge!

Not the normal "Dear Santa" letter, eh?

But I'm thinking about exchanging that for a year's supply of butterscotch pudding.

Maybe I am old-fashioned, but I bought my first digital camera - A Nikon Coolpix 3200 for only 200 USD. Thought what the hell do I need 5,6,7 Megapixel for just a few snapshots I am going to take. Not easy to find nowadays a 3.2 Megapixel to buy. They have become a rarity!

An IOU for a Treo 650.  I had hoped the GSM version would be available before Christmas, but it looks like I'll have to wait until early next year. :(

If I'm lucky I'll be getting:

LaCie Mobile Hard Drive, Design by F.A. Porsche 80GB 5400RPM (USB 2.0 and FireWire)

... Very useful for a computer tech person (nice to keep image files and all regularly needed software - aka AdAware and Spybot).  Plus it'll help me when I need to transport the 20GB/hour DV files back and forth from work to home.

Oh, and Matt?  I had a pony once long ago.  You might as well dig a hole and start pouring your money into it.   ;D

Beautiful creatures though ...

I bought my wife a Belgin waffle maker today

And I bought a friend of mine a set of dishes and a set of glasses since he has next to nothing to eat on.

I may fix his floor before he falls thru it (he lives in a old trailer)

Santa came early for me too. One thing I already got was my beatiful new iPod photo (plus a lovely Argentine leather Vaja case!). The other thing that's coming is two weeks in Kauai (starting the 28th!). Never been to Hawaii before!

So, what to give the person taking me to Hawaii? Undying gratitude only goes so far. . .

A steam cleaner - how's that for a romantic gift?  Advice to husbands:  buy your wife a gift that you really don't want for yourself!!!  ;D
