For loot, a good size pot (5 quarts, I think), t-shirt and $50 from my mom, and $200 from my dad. I have to send stuff out a little late this year, but I'll be treating mom to dinner next time I see her; dad is a bit harder to shop for.
i told everyone i know not to get me anything
it didn't work
there seems to be stuff here
I'm hoping my family will adhere to my request of "no gifts" for once since I can't afford them this year. If I can't give to anyone I don't deserve shit. In the back of my head I'm just secretly hoping one of my brothers says, "I have an in for a job for you, a full-time one." Boom, sign me up, that's the best gift I can get right now.

Well, i guess I will just throw out this container of moustache wax I was going to send you.
So far I've gotten an electric blanket since someone found out I dont have heat in my room and was told to open it early. It's pretty dang cozy.
I need to come up with something to give my dad. Tempted to just give cash (everyone likes cash!), but seeing as I asked for cash from him that might be a little silly. Hm.
I'm not getting half the stuff I was supposed to get for me, my family, and my friends because the mailmen never delivered them even though they shipped weeks ago.
Merry fucking Christmas.

the shitty USPS is even shitter than usual this year and seem to not give a single fuck about it either

I haven't received any gifts yet because my family respects traditions and doesn't exchange gifts early like a bunch of goddamn heathens. But I actually managed to find stuff for everyone before the last minute this year, hooray!
For my dad: the first seasons of The Wire and Breaking Bad because he claims that all TV in the last decade has been crap and I am determined to prove him wrong.
For my mom: pajamas, because dammit mom why do you never want anything.
For my sister: an Oxford English Dictionary and Garner's American Usage because she is studying English and apparently hates online dictionaries.
For my cousin, as part of our extended family gift exchange: a couple of gym shirts because I guess he is pumping iron now or something? He is only like 12 years old, I don't know how this works.

I feel really bad this year because although I got everyone in my family a gift or two or three none of them are very large or fancy or especially useful. Mostly I got cute Korean stationary or accessories for everyone. And because my dad and mom are moving to Russia and can't bring anything with them (they have a total combined shipment of 500 lbs) I haven't gotten them anything.
I love buying presents for people and I just chose the absolute shittiest time of year to move to another country and try to save money because I'll need new everything.

That said, the exceedingly handsome @Stale got me McSweeney's Enchanted Chamber of Astonishing Stories, which was excellent.
The always debonair @BEAST! got me Dragon Seekers, a book about dinosaur hunting which I have just started yesterday. And also Up the Down Volcano I think??
And my heroic and lovely but TOTALLY MYSTERIOUS STILL Satan gave me Death and the Penguin. I started this and it's super. And the book Medusa's Gaze and Vampire's Bite which I haven't begun to read yet.

Digital Ron Paul dollars.
You see its worth money because it takes 'effort' to get them, unlike money some government can just print.

it's part marionette, jeez
are you vomiting blood because earlier you were drinking blood?
do you have something you need to tell us, skragg? are you a vampire?
but I'm also getting my mom a proper tea kettle because when I was over for thanksgiving she was heating water for her tea using a saute pan
Maybe a box of Cheese Nips if you're not too busy.

A different roommate got me a French press.
We've now gone from being a house with zero French presses to a house with two French presses. Double fancy.
