gifts

Remember how you’d call your best friend on Christmas and tell each other what you got? I still have a few of those calls to make but here’s a sampling of some gifts I received!

The bf knows me so well. He’s had a huge box for me in the hallway for almost a month that’s been getting in my way and driving me crazy. This is what was inside -

This is my pretty pretty princess chair I will sit in to fix my face.

I’m going to get busy crafting again soon.

Yes, that’s exactly what it looks like. I love him. His name is Oscar.

My mom got me clothes, jewelry, undies, circle scarves, etc. I’m super stoked about the pair of Rock & Republic’s Recession line discontinued motocross jeans I found on Overstock for about $30 and the over-the-knee grey wedge boots!

I bought myself a vacuum with some gifted $! I kept asking the bf if there was a vacuum in the big box but he figured I would’ve killed him had he gifted me with household chore supplies. I seriously would’ve done a happy dance but, probably not as wildly as I did when I saw that chair!

What was your favorite gift this Christmas?

Be Sociable, Share!

LOVE oscar! I always though ‘Tarantula’ was such a gorgeous word and even hinted to the bf that I would like to name a child that… he wasn’t as in to the idea as I am.

I love Oscar and Elliot. Isn’t he the best ever? The bf wanted to find one in a flat disc but only found the ball. I love the ball since I can cup him in my hand!

Aaaah! I bought over-the-knee grey leather boots as a gift to myself in Hong Kong! I love them so much.
I didn’t get a huge haul this Christmas – I didn’t ask for anything specific, plus my family is cutting back, plus I’m single. My main gift was a panini grill which seems totally random but my parents felt that I really need one, and a fancy Williams Sonoma one at that. Huh.
The gift I will enjoy most will probably be the Season 5 Futurama DVD my brother gave me. Also, some everyday basic beaten silver earrings.
At the Boxing Day sales, I bought myself purple leather gloves and teal leather gloves. Can’t have too many winter accessories in Ontario.

I saw those gloves on your Twitter! They’re gorgeous. We’ve been wanting a panini press too! You have to post about the boots! I want to see! PS – Loooove Futurama!

Best Christmas gift, that’s easy, my divorce! It’s the gift that keeps giving. And now I have to go find a tarantula ball. Beacuse I’m in love. Because it’s awesome in a deserves to be worshiped in a pagan god like way.

Oh! And by the by, the search for the perfect black leather pointy toe knee boot to replace my favorite knee boots that finally gave up the ghost and I almost cried, is over. I found them. On clearance. BIG clearance. I won’t tell you how much because you will cry. But I will tell you that it was about the same as a trip for coffee for two people that like 20oz. 4+ shot latte’s. Yeah, that much on clearance.

Amen!
I think he found the tarantula on eBay.
You have to send me a pic of these crazy deal boots! I love a good clearance find!
