[daniellaaarisen]

That is so, so awesome.

I already know everything I'm getting this year (my sister told me) and I'm getting SO SPOILED that I feel terrible about it... a vintage turntable, new Marc Jacobs sunglasses, a guitar, a camiasdesigns.com crescent moon necklace, MAYBE an iPhone.... they're being too nice!

[iamnotafraid]

I already know everything I'm getting this year (my sister told me) and I'm getting SO SPOILED that I feel terrible about it... a guitar

What kind of guitar Dani?

--------------------------------

And congrats on the autographed microphone gypsy4life.

[samthrax]

I already cashed in all of my presents so there will be no surprises for me on Christmas. Oh well.

But I already received:
Beatles Rock Band for Wii
Tickets to see Bruce Springsteen
Either a Flip Cam or a Peacoat (it's my gift from my boyfriend and if I don't find a peacoat I like soon I'm just going to have him get me the camera. Heh.)

[GODDESS6]

i got a new computer & windows 7~

[GoldDustBoy]

I got a gray leather jacket I fell in love a couple of months ago, and a new lap top with Win 7. :)

[FMlex]

It's not really my Christmas present but Windows 7 here too, Goddess and GoldDustBoy!

My poor dad. He has to put Win 7 on about thirteen computers before he puts it on his own.

I'm not really sure what I'm getting for Christmas... I can't believe tomorrow is Christmas Eve! Agh!

[Enchanted_Stevi]

I told my dad I want a Wii and I asked him if he got it for me so I could ask my mom for some games. So he got me a wii and I asked my mom for some games. IDK which ones yet. Thats probably it. Idk what my friends got me yet or my grandmother.

No idea-- I haven't seen it. But I'll let you know when I get it on Friday!

[Dodfather]

Well, as some people on here may know I'm a HUGE Michael J. Fox fan so a friend of mine got me this for Christmas...

Do you like it? I LOVE IT, and I hated Vista.

[LiamMcConville]

A speeding ticket. :woohoo:

[FMlex]

Do you like it? I LOVE IT, and I hated Vista.

Yep, so far so good!

I grew up on Windows (95, 98, 2000, XP, and Vista) so I didn't notice anything to dramatic except that it's much faster now. Of course I'm not all technical but according to any engineer in my family, it's amazing haha.

Glad you're likin' it! :thumbsup:

[golddustdrummer]

got all my presents early!
new Steve Madden jacket, a gorgeous wool hat, several pairs of drumsticks, a ton of other random clothing articles...mostly for work, and the now ceremonial "Crisp Kringle" chocolate Santas (http://www.groovycandies.com/pc/catalog/8428_General.jpg) I've gotten them every year since I was like 7.

I'm still holding out hope of some surprises....
its not Christmas without something I didn't know I needed.

happy holidays everyone! :xoxo:

[mylittledemon]

Crisp Kringles! Niiiiiiice.

I know I got a boxed set of the entire Seinfeld series, as that was pretty much all I asked for. There are half a dozen other presents under the tree that I have no clue as to what they are. :rolleyes:

[MoonWaterPoet]

I bought myself 2 tickets to go to see David Gray in concert for next March. I won't knnow what I got from my family for Christmas until tomorrow... ;-)


Donnie Wayne ~

[golddustdrummer]

:blob1: L.E.D. DRUMSTICKS!!!!!!!!!!! :blob1:

gonna to look so f'n cool in my next video haha

[cristochango]

I got a new fender electric/acoustic guitar as my big thing.

and the Storms book by Carol Ann.
^pumped to read it :)

[FMlex]

Cool gifts, everyone!! I got an iPod touch which I'm loving so far. I can't get an iPhone because I don't have AT&T. All I have on here so far is fm and Stevie music/videos :)

[WelshWitchPMD]

I bought myself the 64GB on Black Friday. I love it! You need to have a wireless network to obtain the full benefits of the device. I am on it right now as a matter of fact. I don't have AT&T myself. Do you have a BlackBerry? I don't leave home without my BlackBerry and iPod Touch.

[WelshWitchPMD]

I got money, iTunes gift cards, gift cards to IHOP and Dunkin Donuts, a nice travel set, and a ton of candy and sweets. I kind of bought myself gifts earlier this season. The 64GB iPod, some cases for it and the BlackBerry, some Coach bags and some Vera Bradley cases.
I am in desperate need of a new laptop but I can't find what I want. I need a 500GB.

That's awesome!!
Yeah, but it's great because nowadays so many public places have wireless.

I've got a crummy env2 for my cell phone (I have Verizon and can't upgrade until March when I'll need to renew my contract... yay life) so I'm really excited to have this too! :)

I have Verizon too. Can't say that I recommend the Storm as I am now having problems with mine. It was fine until I did the software update. They have the new Droid but I don't
know much about it.
Free WiFi is getting more and more popular. I know both Borders and Barnes and Noble now offer it and even McDonalds offers it with any purchase.
When I got my first 8gb iPod touch a year ago I hadn't set up my wireless network so I use to go to Panera to download anything.

[daniellaaarisen]

...I have never before felt this spoiled.

Between my immediate family, extended family and 3 best friends, I got:
A TURNTABLE!
25+ vinyls
an acoustic guitar + 8 lessons
a handbag
Marc Jacobs sunglasses
a crescent moon necklace :)
Nordstrom and Barnes & Noble gift cards
money for my college fund



This is ridiculous.

[DavidMn]

One of my favorites was a gift my mother ordered for me from Ebay a custom made **** she ordered for me thta has the words GOT FLEETWOOD MAC? written across the front.. Loves it, as Nicole Richie would say.....:laugh:

Oooooh....what'd you get?! I've had my turntable for about 3 months and because of xmas etc I haven't bought as many records as I should...yet! I have about 25.

[jaycee]

Well, one of my presents was the FM concert of 15 December in Brisbane (we had to fly from Melbourne), but there was also...
"Metroid Prime: Trilogy", a Wii game
"Lawrence Leung's Choose Your Own Adventure", an Australian comedy series
"John Safran's Race Relations", another Aussie comedy
"The Ancestor's Tale" by Richard Dawkins
"The Complete World According To Clarkson" by Jeremy Clarkson
And a set top box for digital tv.
And clothes. How could I forget the clothes?
I gave my parents albums:
"Strange Days" by The Doors
"L.A. Woman" also by The Doors
"The Definitive Lionel Richie"
"The Very Best Of Cream"
And everyone was happy! :D

Sorry Dave, I couldn't resist.:] Did it come from the toilet of Stevie Nicks or the toilet of Mick Fleetwood?:xoxo::]

[gypsy4life]

Obviously, the Stevie Nicks signed microphone was awesome for me! I also got a new video camera, a sewing machine, and the perfume my Mom looked up on the internet that Stevie wears called "Fracas". Let me say this, it is no wonder people talk about how good she smells...mmmmm..it's awesome!

I got many other nice things, I mean, to be 31 years old and be as excited as I was in the 80s when I got my coveted Cabbage Patch Kid...well, it's been an awesome Christmas!

[LikeAWillow]

It was a good Christmas for me. I haven't gotten my gifts from my friends yet, we've got a big exchanged planned at the beginning of next week, but from my family:

Victorias Secret and Sephora gift cards
The Complete Works of Kafka
A biography on Mao
A hair straightener
Lots of Penn State gear! :blob2:
A gorgeous new winter coat

i love, love this perfume~ i bought some a couple of years ago & adore it~

[gypsy4life]

Well, it will be purchased on special occasions only for me, it is quite expensive. I do LOVE it though, it is nothing like I've ever smelled before. Very unique-no wonder Miss Nicks wears it!

[Musicman408]

Cool stuff you guys!!!

Some high points were my new Toto Cds and DVD along with House MD season 5 DVD and a new Princeton Plainsboro Teaching Hospital Tee-Shirt!!

[Gypsycat999]

My greatest present beside the Fleetwood Mac concert in October was Alf on DVD!! I've been watching & laughing my ass off since Thursday night whenever we weren't visiting relatives (:(). I just LOVE Alf :].
I also got new stereo equipment so finally I can listen to CDs again without having to fight with this stupid thing for half an hour before. Yayay. My dad immediately grabbed my old one to take it to his workplace so he can always listen to Fleetwood Mac. He told me the people there already call him crazy. Sometimes I'm not sure if it was a good idea to take him to the concert :shrug::p.
From most of my relatives I got money so I'm gonna do some online shopping the next days :).

All in all I have to say this Christmast was not a bad one :D. Though the absolutely greatest present is that all my relatives still speak to each other after spending the whole day together yesterday. This truly is a gift.

[cristochango]

Lots of Penn State gear! :blob2:


are you goin to penn state next year?

[fleetwoodtrick]

http://static.guim.co.uk/Guardian/lifeandstyle/gallery/2008/may/09/1/guitar11Tremonti-8153.gif

Why yes, that is a Tremonti SE PRS guitar. :) I'm too lazy to take my own pictures, but there ya go! Isn't it amazing? I'm in love. But I feel bad for my stratocaster, because he'll be on the shelf for a little while.

I also got

A LCD flat screen TV that is hanging from my wall.
The promise that I will get a Droid when my phone contract is up.
A new North Face jacket thing. ♥
A designer contact case . (Which I didn't know I needed, but it's super cute!)
57382957383 iTunes giftcards.
All of this on top of a lot of sentimental things from my grandparents and... perhaps the best of all...

I'm getting my braces off in about a week! (I've had them for four years. It's time they come off.)

I'm a damn spoiled kid. (But this all was part of my birthday present too.)

Alexa and Pattie - Ugh. I have the env2 too. And I have a year of my contract left still. But I got the iTouch over the summer, and I love it! You guys should too :)

Edit: Oh yeah, I killed my laptop. Goodbye precious memories. Goodbye iTunes. Goodbye hours and hours of Stevie/Mac video, music, and pictures. Goodbye 150 pictures of Billie Joe Armstrong I had saved. I need a new hardrive, but I'm really hoping that a tech wiz can salvage some of the pictures of my family. :( But other than that. It was a pretty amazing Christmas :)))

[LikeAWillow]

are you goin to penn state next year?

Haha, no. I'm a sophomore at Wellesley College in Boston. My mom is a Penn State alumna and my best friend is currently attending, though, so I've got a lot of loyalty to the school. Plus, my women's college doesn't exactly give me my football fix, and my boyfriend goes to NYU so I'm not getting it there, either. JoePa's boys are a good solution.

[hippilil86]

Christmas has been kind of bittersweet this year, as my Grandma passed away last Friday, and we had the funeral service the Tuesday before Christmas.

But...

we did try to make the most of Christmas. Among other things, I got an amazing fringed pair of leather Minnetonka boots that I adore.

The Toto CDs and DVD would sit well with me too... I still remember well the concert I went to in March last year (my first ever concert, in fact)... "Africa" was the best encore they could've possibly chosen! Just like FM choosing "Silver Springs" for the Unleashed tour! :nod:

[estranged4life]

didn't ask for anything nor did I receive any item(s), and I am fine with that.

I'm more of a giving soul than one who wants (ie-For the first time, I got busted leaving a large tip at a restaurant for the food server - which is a tradition that Debbie & I started years ago at the holiday season. I left a $35 tip on an $8 meal and the female server caught me as I was leaving and thanked me, I prefer to leave the building before they find the tip).

That's wonderful! Just like you I didn't ask for anything but did receive some shower gels from various family members. I gave the paper boy a £20 note as I do every year, and was able to spoil my grandmother with tickets to Holiday on Ice!

Ah, Toto! I was heartbroken when they split last year. I never did get to see them live but I love the songs Rosanna, You Are The Flower, Hold The Line, Hydra... and not too long after a favourite band of mine, Thunder, decided to split aswell!!
