Every year I come in to this thread and think, wow, what a bunch of spoiled little f***ers. Not that I don't ever get good stuff for Christmas, but I'm stunned reading some of the posts.
Despite
deserving nothing for Christmas at all this year, looking at what I got, and what my wife got,
I'M the spoiled f***er this year.
Fortunately, my wife was off of work Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. What I really wanted was to spend the days with her, enjoying the Christmas season, and I got it. Nothing below even compares to that, because that's all I really wanted this year ;D
