Hess Trucks? I can't believe they still make those, I got a few of those as a kid.
I'm also jealous at all of you people who got tons of gifts, DVD box sets, and other shit that my family would never buy me. 'TV series? Does it help you get through school and get a job? No? Then you don't need it!' My family tends to only buy the necessaries and never the non-necessaries and entertainment stuff. Forget anime and video games, they'll never get those for me.
Bernie: Fuck, your family's disfunctional, a 4 year old with a HD tv? A crazed old lady?
I won't know my full haul until tonight, but I will mention one thing I got this christmas.
When I sent my list out via email, I sent a main list with the stuff I wanted, and a few emails to specific people who I knew could get me certain stuff, for example I told my uncle to get a metal cd that I'd never ask most of the rest of my family since they'd probably pour holy water on me. And then, a week later, I sent an email that said "Oh yea, I wouldn't mind a winter coat, and one or two pairs of pants." My mistake.
By the end of this weekend I had recieved 3 coats, 2 during one dinner alone, and had to tell another family member to not bother getting a coat.
Before you say I'm being ungrateful and I should be thankful I got any presents, realize I really don't need 3 coats and that's more than most homeless people get. It's too much!
Two of the coats I'm considering keeping, and I have gift reciepts for both so I'm okay on that one. The third one I don't like at all, it's too big and I don't like the color. Unfortunatly, it's from the uncle whom I told to get a CD (listen much?), and he got it from a catalog, so returning it is almost impossible even if he agreed to return it, which he doesn't.
So I have at least one coat I don't want or need... And I'm not sure what to do with it.
