If that's the future then I've been in it for 3 years.

Posting this from a hand held gizmo. Behold the phuture.
The future on that device is awesome :D
Jesus Day furnished me with:
* Floor mats for my Mini. Actual Mini ones and not crappy 'one size fits all but really don't and will affect the clutch pedal unless you angle them stupidly' Halfords crap I've had in it so far.
* New Scientist's
Do Polar Bears Get Lonely?* A little cash!
* Lego Batman for the 360 (which is surprisingly great)
* GRID for the 360

Hmm..let's see:
-A "Bag of Holding" thinkgeek messenger bag.
-A new hat (anyone know how to shape hats, like fedoras, cowboy hats, etc?)
-Fallout 3 PC
-A really nice tripod/hiking stick.
-A "Back-Track" GPS electronic compass
-A Brita filter
-Some corduroy pants and shirts.
-A really nice pair of headphones, but were completely unnecessary.
-A solar-powered window fan for my mini cooper, since the car temp can get high enough to melt plastic in florida.
-book: "Amber and Ashes" by Margaret Weis
-and $56 which I'm going to put towards trying to find and buy Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy(PC), and any other of the jedi knight series if it's in a bundle.
I also have 1 more thing in the mail but no idea what it is.

-Assorted fine chocolates (Toblerone, Dove Mint Caramel Dark Chocolate, Lindt white chocolate bar, Cadbury Caramello)
-Sleeping pants in an oversized Dr. Pepper can
-A red cotton shirt of some sort
-HP bt500 Bluetooth USB stick
-Wii Fit
-Lottery tickets (of which only one was a winner; 2$ ticket)
-20 US$ Blockbuster gift card
-40 US$ gift certificate for use at a local sushi restaurant (I'm really going to enjoy this, though it probably won't last long with my appetite for sushi.)
-A brick (you know, the variety used in buildings) with a Bank of America envelope taped on that contained 50 US$ in one-dollar bills (It was a bit of a joke-the brick adds a lot of heft that makes me curious as to what's inside, and I open the package just to see this huge brick.)
Unlike past years, I didn't get much in the way of games or anything else particularly expensive, for I'm more concerned about tuition funds and whatnot at this point. I'm loaded with enough games as-is, and the cash can be used to buy more games or assorted hardware (maybe a nice RAM upgrade for my PC or some memory cards for my portables).

I got bed sheets. They're gray and black.
Now I'm not one to complain about presents, they're free after all, but this is something where I looked up and said:
"Remember the sheets I bought last time at IKEA? They're white with floral patterns. I loved those."
:D "We thought these looked manly."
"Okay, but if I longed for a manly gray and black bed, I'd sleep on the concrete floor, wouldn't I?"
They were obviously too polite to say " gray and black don't show the pee stains as much"

They show another kind of stain quite well though...
