I'm spinning Pearl Jam's Lost Dogs right now (thanks Mom!), bringing to a close a very good day. Actually, it wasn't a good day. It was a great day.
James was spoiled rotten and video evidence will be available here just as soon as I get around to it. I too was spoiled, getting everything I asked for as well as a few pleasant surprises like a ticket to the Islanders-Leafs game in January (thanks Steve!), a very cool Simpsons trivia calendar (thanks Poops!) and a gift certificate for Radio Shack (thanks Ry!).
Looking back on the day, the gifts were gravy. Getting together with loved ones to chat, eat and laugh is really what made it so wonderful. This was a very Merry Christmas. I hope your day was just as swell.
