I'm doing my K-Mart run tonight to buy the crappiest stuff I can find, wrap it, and address it from one family member to another. I recommend everyone else do this as well because its great fun. My sister gave my dad a scrunchi, my mom gave her mom a bag of dinner rolls, my brother gave my other brother a bottle of boonsfarm, etc.

My nieces and nephew: Not sure, my brother is buying them something nice each from Uncle Matt and I'm going to give him the money.....in my haste to get my Christmas shopping done I totally forgot that the last posting day to Israel is the 8th December, and by the time I realised it was too late.

I haven't opened the presents from my Mom and Dad yet...They're still under the tree. I bought myself a bitchin' $125 right handed acoustic bass that's strung left handed for me. The necks a little warped but I can work around it. I hadn't played a bass in nearly 6 years and it's like riding a bycycle. I don't know about you all but sitting at home just sitting listening to music doesn't do it for me. When I listen I get really into music and don't want to talk but want to do something. So playing along with whatever is a great way to pass the time
I live in a condo so an electric is out of the question. When I was in HS, my electric bass playing helped get my grandmother evicted from her apartment. So I don't want to go through that again
