Merry Christmas everyone.

What did everybody get for Christmas?

Remember to post in the Secret Santa post what you go from your secret Santa as well.

I still haven't opened presents yet but I'll be sure to post the exciting/interesting gifts I recieved here.

Nothing and I have to work all day on two jobs both days because my ancestors refused to convert to a better religion.

Happy holidays, folks! I hope everyone is enjoying whatever they like to enjoy at this time of year, whether that's time away from work, time with family and friends, feasting, performing archaic rituals, giving and receiving gifts, etc.

Merry Christmas! Had a good time with my family this morning, everyone really enjoyed their presents this year which is great.

Gaming related I got a copy of Professor Layton Vs. Ace Attourney for 3DS, a PS4 Controller and a year subscription to PS+, which is great as I wasn't looking forward to buying either of those.

I also got myself a little gift and ordered an ASUS transformer Book Flip TP200 from the Microsoft Store for $250. It's a Laptop that can flip back on itself and act as a tablet. I was contemplating getting something a little heftier in terms of power to replace my laptop, but I'm willing to try out a smaller, more portable laptop to see how it fares, really good price too. The battery life also looks to be stellar compared to my laptops 1-2 hours. Worse case scenario I'll use it primarily as a tablet (since I've never had one) and look into getting a new big boy computer next year.

I got an awesome Atari Flashback 6 console with literally 100 games on it, including some of my favorites. I also bought myself, with my wife's blessing and encouragement, a nice Kindle Fire and used some Amazon gift cards I had from my birthday to buy 10 or more books, both electronic and hard copy, and a couple more King Crimson live CDs. Outstanding stuff. I'm delighted.

My daughter got Shopkins, more dollhouse furniture, and Pop the Pig. My son got five different mega man action figures, some Tayo stuff, and a gum ball machine loaded with jelly beans.

My niece is very much in love with Shopkins. Not sure where their popularity came from.
