Both of our downstairs trees were completely surrounded by piles of presents when the opening ceremonies began. On top of that, everyone had stuffed stockings too so it was a gift extravaganza. It took two sittings to get through it all, but there were 15 of us so I’m not feeling too guilty. My loot included:
- Northern Exposure season 2 on DVD
- Kill Bill Volumes 1 and 2 on DVD
- Blood Simple on DVD
- A Dido CD
- A Norah Jones CD
- Various tools and implements required for my upcoming woodworking course (Jen called the instructor to find out what I needed!)
- An orbital sander
- Much chocolate and candy
- Two sweaters from Mum in England
- Some books from Kim, the Book Goddess
- Magic cards
- The America book by Jon Stewart
