Christmas was awesome this year

Well...it's always awesome. But for some reason this seems like the best Christmas I've had in a while. On Christmas eve, Blackadder's Christmas Carol was on BBC America, so I watched it...three times XD, and I watched the QI Christmas special (and laughed hysterically of course). Then the family sat down and opened presents (we always open presents on Christmas eve...not really sure why). I won't bore you with my whole list of presents, but I will give you my top three (because, c'mon, I have to brag a little):
1) An iPod Nano. A bright red one. Named Dexter

(yes, I named my iPod...all the cool kids are doing it!). I love this thing. I mean, if I had never gotten it, I probably would've been perfectly content to go on for the rest of my life completely iPod-less, but now that I've gotten my grubby paws on one...I think I may have a difficult time going without. Which is why the iPods will one day enslave the entire human race and force us to build gleaming white monuments in tribute to them. I, for one, will welcome our state-of-the-art digital masters with open arms.
2) The Jeeves & Wooster DVD box set.

. I love this show. SO MUCH. I've watched at least two episodes a day since I got my box set. I'd already seen them all multiple times of course, but I honestly don't think I will ever be sick of this show. And my brothers will actually sit down and watch it with me! Troy even seems to enjoy it a bit XD Which makes me think that there's hope for them yet. Maybe.
3) Vanilla Noir lotion and body wash from Bath and Body Works

. This stuff smells SO GOOD. And the scent lasts forever

So I smell nice all day. (At least I hope I do, lol.)
Christmas day was fun, too.

came over and we hooked the iDance Wall-E she got for Christmas up to my iPod. Which was extremely entertaining XD (she also got a "Pet Rat", which is a giant rat-shaped gummy candy, and when she called me up to ask if I wanted to hang out, she said: "I got a new pet rat, want to help me eat it?" to which my mouth responded "WHAT?" before my brain realized what she was talking about. XD) Then we played
Singstar: ABBA because we're both dorks

. Dorks who can't sing backup to save their lives.
On Sunday, Dad and I went to see Bin Faaarkrekkion's new Moosical,
Dik Od Triaanenen Fol. Which is the story, in music and song, of Finland's transformation from a predominantly rural agricultural base to one of the most sophisticated industrial and entrepreneurial economies in the world, and takes place entirely in a sauna.
...Yeah, okay, we went to see
Spamalot XD. We were supposed to go see it on Saturday, but what with the horrible fog and ice and whatnot, we changed our tickets. It was awesome. The first act was a little bit awkward, but still enjoyable, and the second act was great

It was all only very loosely based on the movie...there were a lot of recognizable lines (the people sitting directly behind us were quoting along with them almost constantly

), but the whole thing had almost nothing to do with finding holy grails. I mean, even less so than
Monty Python and the Holy Grail did XD. But I enjoyed myself thoroughly (and managed NOT to sing along with the music! A personal first XD).
And because I couldn't resist getting a souvenir, I got a t-shirt XD. I was torn between the 'I'm not dead yet" shirt and the 'Fechez la vache!' shirt, and I eventually did a little mental 'Eenie-meenie-miney-mo' and ended up getting the 'I'm not dead yet' one. Now I'm thinking how funny it would be to be buried in it XD. I'm a terrible person.

Well, I have pet rats, and rats live in packs, and I like to think I'm sort of the top, or "Alpha" rat amongst my ratties, as it were. But that's probably not true at all. XD;
