To some extent. Though they knew something was up.
This Christmas was actually kind of nice.
I lost the last dredges of my childhood by receiving a vacuum from Chris' mom. And even worse I still hold it as the best gift of the season.
Ben gave me a plant which is making me so incredibly paranoid its not even funny. I've been watering it with fish tank water cause my roommates told me to and the only light its gotten is from the ceiling lamp in the kitchen. But you win some you lose some.
Chris' aunt gave me a weird little khaki colored fuzzy zip up with a hood. I'm not quite sure what that translates to...
Chris got a nifty little battery powered travel razor that I promptly stole and stuck in my purse and he just seems relieved that someone is going to use it.
Aislinn gave me a really cool book called Jesus Freaks thats a true crime look at some crazy cult that started in the 70s. Its hard to read which makes me feel a little better about the hours spent reading about serial killers in graphic detail since graphic child molestation gives me the wiggins.
Chris' sister gave me a pretty necklace that promptly broke ten seconds after my unwrapping it so I hid it in my purse for the rest of the time she was around and I'll fix it later. I do like it. Burgundy lace choker with a heavy metal heart pendant.
Richie got Chris and I both 1 year of Xbox Live gold. Very cool.
Sean gave me a pink shirt that says "Strangers have the best candy". Motive behind this I still don't know but I like the randomness of it. Reminds me of the shirt I got last year with bunnies that says "Vegetarians have more fun". Sometimes you need a little randomness.
And Chris got me The History Boys on DVD. Like I asked for. I think he might regret it since I've watched it around five times in the last couple days and have been quoting it every time the opportunity presents itself. And sometimes when it doesn't. Oh, and two Little Mermaid ornaments.
And Patrick got a Wii. He didn't get us anything (mostly cause hes an immature little prick who thinks the world revolves around him). But we've gotten back at him. Chris plays the Wii more than he does and I've been sneaking all his candy when he isn't looking.
Aisha gave me a new nutcracker (much to Richie's dismay, apparently he hates them) and a pearl necklace that's sturdy enough for me to wear all the time with matching earrings.
Man its nice to have a vacuum. We're all really excited about it. Except Patrick who is getting really sick of Richie and I shooing him around and demanding he pick up things so we can vacuum.
I beat everyone in the "best gift" contest getting Chris a new mp3 player. His has been a couple exits past working the entire time I've known him. I think he's a little pissed at me for pulling that on him. Nothing is as much of a fuck you as completely eclipsing everyone. Apparently he thought he was getting a thumb drive. Turns out my careful act of complete disinterest every time he so much as looked at anything mp3 related for the last month kept him blissfully ignorant. The only problem is its ten times better than mine now.
