anybody planning to buy more things on the Boxing Day sale?
I got my brother a $160 gift card for Pacific Boarder cuz he wanted snowboard pants, and the guy at the store said to get him a giftcard and come on boxing day.
So I went with my brother today cuz I wanted a new snowboard jacket, and I was about to pay for it ($260 reg. $360) and my dad pulled out his card and said it was a late Christmas present! ahahah it was so sweet!

I didn't get anything Lions related!
Boo to that, boo to that indeed!
I did get a microwave though...that was pretty groovy and best of all...the first season of 90210. Yeah, that's right. I know you're all jealous.

Excellent Christmas this year. Christmas Eve was the busy day. Went over to the mainland, visited Rick at Sports n Stuff-always a good time!
Visited with P-dawg and family, met up with the boss (D)
, and the Boscos before visiting with Lord Earl Grey!
Probably the highlight of my Christmas was getting to do this:
Nice present from BC Ferries too. On the trip back, it was $20 for the car and $5 per person on the last 4 sailings back to the Island Christmas Eve. Nice!
On Christmas Day, Santa was pretty good to me:
Beautiful new coffee maker
Beautifuler new cell phone
Cell phone kit
Lions Champions T-Shirt
Timex ironman watch
The Longest Yard (Sandler edition)
Lions glass coffee mug
Black cat calendar
The biggest box of chocolates I've ever seen!
From the family:
Trivial Pursuit 80's Edition (anyone wanna play?)
The Benchwarmers movie
PJ's and slippers

I never get spoiled any more. I just got 50 bucks from my Dad. My Mom didn't even send me anything. But I wouldn't expect anything more from her.

The complete Sports Night Series on DVD.
Robot Chicken Season One.
American Ruins, a book about abandoned American buildings.
A 2006 Grey Cup Champions T-Shirt from my best friend.
An outdoor cornhole game set, made by my brother in law with the BC Lions logo painted on.
My mother in law put together a collection of early 20th century postcards of American colleges and Canadian places into a picture book. Profoundly thoughtful.
But the best present of all came on Boxing Day. Last night while I was reading American Ruins, my wife curled up on the couch and fell asleep, with the two cats beside her, under the light of the Christmas Tree. Just a gorgeous sight that makes you appreciate what you have in life.
