What did you get for Christmas?
I got some VERY weird items on Christmas. Three wiseguys I don't know showed up at my door, (I think they were from somewhere back east) and gave me gifts of gold, Frankenstein and myrrh.
Can't use the myrrh. If I try to light it, Frankie goes nuts.
We never exchange gifts among the adults, occasionally there's a gift certificate hand-out or something but mostly I do all my own xmas shopping for myself all year 'round anyway... and who the hell in my family wants to buy me From Beyond the Grave on dvd anyway?
The best gift I ever got though was the discovery this year that my 3 year old boy loves SKELETONS. He's of course completely obsessed with Nightmare Before Christmas and Mad Monster Party, but the other day I took a leap and showed him the skeleton army battle scene from Jason and the Argonauts. If only I had thought beforehand to get the video camera ready I would right now have in my possession some of the greatest footage of all time of a 3 year old kid's mind melting on tape.
