Familial present haul consists of a gold bracelet from Mom that I will probably never wear because I don't wear gold, Ella Enchanted (finally! an Anne Hathaway movie I like! unlike The Princess Diaries, which I inexplicably own, and hate) and Take the Lead (ooh, wanted to see this, hope it's good) on DVD from parents, and season three of Gilmore ( Read more... )
