I've pretty much got mine. A new comptuer. :idk:
And my padawans have talked me into opening gifts in a few minutes instead of in the morning. It works better for me since I'll be tired after working all night. I don't know who's more excited about Christmas this year...me or them. :rockwoot:
Congrats, Tommy! :dthumb:

I got my Christmas present yesterday... A new distributor in my car since it conked out on the way to work yesterday. Hugh got it started again and babied it in to the repair shop who only gouged him a little bit for the new one. I'm all about the practical gifts :rockwoot:

Got some good stuff. My brother and sister-in-law got me an old school Star Trek shirt and a gift card for my favourite camera shop. My mother gave me some frames, so I'll actually print some of my shots and hang them.
The weirdest thing that I got was a set of magnetic placards with my website name on them, from my brother-in-law and sister. Call them a set of the world's biggest fridge magnets, to stick on my car door. Pretty cool :)

I can't wait to get my ink next week. I told my artist what I wanted and he's been working on it. I'm pretty much giving him free reign outside of the basic idea as he always does a kickass job that way. :rockwoot:
He's also going to do touch ups on my others. Maybe after being hit on several parts of my body with the needle, I won't want another one for a while. :lol:

I did ok this year. Last week I bought myself a craftsman 260piece mechanics tool set. Now I got a 4 piece craftsman tool set (drill circular saw, sawzall and light) My dad gave me cash, one sister bought me 2 torque wrenches(one will be returned) and my sister got me a gift card for sears. I have my eye on the 26 gallon air compressor and may pull the trigger on that this weekend.

Still up in the air about his, and it depends on what I find at Sears this weekend...we spent the day at his aunt and uncle's house and had a really nice time just hanging out in front of the fireplace. His mom got us both AAA memberships, which I'm using today to get the car towed in so we can fix it. His grandmother sent us a pancake/maple syrup gift set from our favorite family maple farm in the area...yummmmm...

That crack in the ceiling...is it first floor or second?
Do the floors feel level? Notice any dips anywhere? Ackward weight distribution caused from the furniture or fat people + flex in the beams could mean that will be a crack you will be fixing on a regular basis.

Well the house is a Bi level and the crack is on the Top part of the Two levels...So noone has walked over the crack...The home inspector was in the attic and it was not used for storage its all insulated and there is no plywood down to put stuff on.
So I would assume that the crack was not caused by weight from ppl/furniture...I'm hoping to find out more today.
