...so what are you going to buy yourself for Christmas? Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

my best presents always come from myself (sniffle!), this year aside from getting socks, boxer shorts and belgian chocolates from my family i've decided to treat myself to Serious Sam on the XBox, the coolest shirt ever and a 8' telescope. I'll be able to look myself in the mirror and say a wholehearted and sincere "thanks', which is more than can be said about the socks!

I'd like to buy an afternoon to just have to myself for reading, gaming, writing, and general relaxation....

... but the wife will probably see me sitting around and put me to work.

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

I'm lucky, 'cause the only things I really want at the moment are socks and boxers. A Gerber tool would be nice, too, but I might get one of those for Christmas. If I don't, then I'll probably just forget that I want one for another coupla months.

The only other thing I really want is a new tire for my car, but that's not a biggy -- the thing's got a slow leak that the mechanic can't plug, but that just means that I've gotta add air to it every month or so. It's just a mild inconvenience, though, and not really worth shelling out the money to replace.

Hell, you should work with me!!! If I need a tool, I just order it and it's here in a couple of days. Doing this work is where I've gotten all of my tools, including 2 gerbers and a schrade multi-tool.

ACK!

think i'll treat myself to a few cds, since i don't have my mp3s with me at christmas. other than that some warm clothes might be an idea and a coat, the amount of times this term i've been stuck in the bastard cold with only 2 t-shirts on is getting a bit much.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

I'll be building myself a new computer soon, and am going to buy a couple computer games. (Shrouded isles, and maybe Simcity 4 or MOO3)

But it's not really for a chirstmas present, it's just a coincidence that I'll be geting some money around the same time as the holiday.

I've been wearing the same clothes for about 4-6 years, (mostly from when I was in grade 7)

I think most of my shorts can be better described as rags.

What do you do for work? It would sure help me to get into that line of business, to replace my multi-tools when I inevitably lose them. (I've gone through two of them over the past four years, and none of the attrition was from wearing out...)

I'm going to buy myself a nice watch (a dress watch). And maybe a digital camera. I'm stil dismayed by the limitations.

Like if I go to Hawaii I'd have to spend big bucks for more memory cards. Because I won't be able to download to my computer.

Suffering from ads?

I also might buy me a trip to a whorehouse if I can't find a girlfriend soon . I'd rather not do that though. It's just not the same.
