Default What cool stuff did you get (or not get) for Christmas or other winter holiday?

I got that Fleetwood Mac book that I mentioned in my thread already. I got a Xmas throw with polar bears on it from my secret Santa at work. I got a really cute shampoo and conditioner set that was in with a stuffed bear from a co-worker. She also gave me a ton of candy including a large Hershey’s kiss. I got a Mistletoe Yankee Candle from another co-worker.
Where's Lindsey?


From one of my friends I got a gift card to Best Buy and Dunkin Donuts. She also got me more candy. She also put a little penguin sticker on my gift bag tag. My other friend got me a manicure set and homemade fudge.


I got a few gift cards from my Dad and some $. I also got a ton of candy from See’s. They have a seasonal kiosk in Providence Place Mall that closes Christmas Eve. I told my Dad about it I think he might have wanted to know


I am expecting some Mac ‘goodies’ but Santa seems to have given them to some really slackers of elves called the US Post Office. I don’t know where my package is.


I hope that everyone had a happy holiday.

I got a record player!!!!1!11!1!!!1

It's so pretty. It's one of those wooden CD/Record/Tape/Radio things. The sound is great, too. I played a record as soon as I opened it, and it sounded crystal clear. I looove it. <333

I also got the Acoustic Guitar magazine with Lindsey on the cover, money, certificates, a makeup bag, two skirts, penguin pajamas, jewelry and candy. Woot.

I work my butt off 60 hours every single week so one good thing came from it, a $1000 bonus. That came in very handy. Other than that, I got some nice stuff but I am alone Christmas. SIGH. Oh well.

Have a lovely Christmas everyone!

LOL, I don't think so. I gave people some Bath and Body works stuff for Xmas. It's always nice to get those gifts.

I got gift certificates for books from more than one person-maybe people are finally waking up to the fact I love to read-LOL! Anyway I am very happy to have the books.

I also got a cute penguin ornament-can't imagine why, can you? hehe, and a couple of beautiful calendars. The penguin has movable legs and wings.

I got a digital camcorder/digital still camera! I also got the Seinfeld Season 1- gift set! Umm, I got a bunch of giftcards- 2 to Starbucks, a gift card to the Gap, a Panera Bread giftcard (my favorite place to do lunch!)... I got chocolate covered espresso beans in my stocking! I got the 90's trivial pursuit board game, a classical piano record, ummm... a silver pill case, a valet key chain with my name engraved, a carwash/detailing kit, a t-shirt and a pair of boxers from Lucky Jeans, some really good smelling shower gell, Money!, the Boy in the Plastic Bubble DVD, a bunch of fun stocking stuffer stuff, I made out like a bandit this year. Everything I got I loved. Normally it is like "You really shouldn't have!" but there is not one thing I don't like this year!

I got nothing Stevie Nicks though. Come on Stevie, we need more stuff! Make an album, do a dvd, something!

Is it just me or have penguins become the new "in" animal? Everything is Penguins these days.

Let's see...

Live in Boston, Destiny Rules, several pajamas but no penguins, a yorkie tote, patched teddy bear, fleece throw with my name embroidered on it, pink cross & bead bracelet, sapphire/diamond earrings, purses, gift certificates, toe socks, clothes and more clothes.

The first two things are what I wanted most. I'll be doing after Christmas shopping.

I got a kick-ass laptop from my parents. 512MB RAM; 40GB HDD. One of my friends got me a calendar of Bushisms. Another friend of mine got me a book about Bush misleading America. Last, but not least, I got Christine's ITM CD.

I got socks that smell like candy (smell my feet, they're chocolate ), two glitter belts, a smoothie maker, a tea kettle, and a NanoPuppy. I feel like I'm back in junior high without all the drama. I got some nifty gifts from my Mac friends over the past two weeks or so... everything from a manicure kit and bubble bath to Destiny Rules. I feel like making a smoothie, doing my nails, and doing some online shopping for the stuff I really need.

Mac related stuff I got:

Destiny Rules DVD
Heroes are Hard to Find (the whole family made fun of the cover )
The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac
Fleetwood Mac Live
Street Angel
Bob Welch: His Fleetwood Mac Years and Beyond (I still can't believe it's signed!)

I got some other CDs--Carly Simon, Kim Richey, John Lennon, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Ani DiFranco, and Celine Dion.

And my Mom managed to find me a sterling silver stethoscope pin and a poster to feed my stethoscope obsession!

Those are the big things.

Hey Kate, I got my Mom the Return of Saturn CD and I told her you said it was their best.

I got the same thing last year! I love mine. I had to replace it once because the CD player went bad. I hate to say that it is going bad again. You are right though, the records play wonderful on it.

Awesome stuff! Now you can hear Skies the Limit and the Live album's Rhiannon...it rocks! I personally love Street Angel. It's my second favorite Stevie record.
