Christmas!

Today is Christmas! (OK, technically yesterday was Christmas, but forget that.) I hope you all had a very merry one, and for those who esteem all days equally, I hope you enjoyed a good day off of work.

It's now time for me to brag about my family's generosity, which was much abundant this year. A few highlights. My parents got me a new cell phone, which I've been wanting for ages. This one is one of those flippy-phones and it has the whole Space Communicator/speakerphone mode that I think is really cool. They also got me a Creative Zen Touch, which would sound really weird for a professing Christian to say if he weren't referring to his iPod-esque new MP3 player. Then my brothers got me a book by the Blogosphere's own James Lileks called Interior Desecrators and a DVD with the first hundred Strong Bad emails from Homestar Runner on it. Ooh, and my parents also got me a Memory Stick with 512MB of memory on it as well as a license to PocketDVD Studio which will allow me to copy DVD's that I own to a file that my Clie will be able to read. It's pretty cool.

All in all, a lot of very nice presents from some very nice people. (Thanks guys!)

Now, while I should be going to bed right now, I'll actually be staying up just a little while to copy a few more CDs onto my MP3 player. (Just 5 more, and I think I'll have every religious CD in our extensive religious CD collection loaded into the thing.) So, good night for now, and, once again, Merry Christmas!
