My Christmas present to myself has arrived in full!!!!!!!! OMGYaY!!!!
Ok, I ordered it on December 10th, so Amazon technically took a month to deliver it all, but hey, it's here today, the Day of the Magi (or the Three Wise Men, but I wonder if they were so wise after all ;P), so it's more than fitting :D Plus, there's a three-day weekend ahead, woohoooo!!!
I'm so unfreakinglievably happy that I can't wait to run home and gloat GLOAT!!! over my new DVDs and books.
Ok, so it's blatant and disgusting consumerism, but hey, am I to blame? :P And besides, this Christmas season was really more for family and good times, we didn't actually exchange gifts or made a big deal in my family. So now it's my turn to treat myself for working sooooooo damn hard last year :D
