I had a nice Christmas, for the most part. I got a print of Van Gogh's "Wheatfield With Crows", the fourth volume of the Absolute Sandman collection, Christopher Titus "Norman Rockwell is Bleeding" comedy album and a shotgun mic that will hopefully make future episodes of Comics Are Awesome sound a bit better. As well as some assorted stocking stuffers (cookies, flashlights, uhm, a colander?).
The reason I said "mostly" was because I woke up on Christmas morning and found out I had purchased a copy of Call of Duty: Black Ops on Steam as a gift for someone. This was news to me. Seems either someone hacked my account or I had a virus (doing a scan I did come up with a couple of viruses, so probably that). I contacted Steam and they were going to refund my money, though they have shut down my Steam Account (which you need to have a working account to play any games purchased from them). It's at most an inconvience but still spoiled my initial Christmas spirit.
But spending time with family really made up for it. I hope all my friends here had happy holidays. I've been pretty quiet, primarily due to pouring more of my energies when I get home on other projects like CAA or just wanting to crash but you are all wonderful and I do take the time to read your posts even I don't always reply. I hope you all have a safe and happy New Year.
