I hope that certain book is World War Z, if so I commend your choice :D
Or the Zombie Survival Guide. Both are equally awesome.

Got a hunch my bro is giving me his Dell 9 netbook :D

Already downloaded OSX and XPlite for it and might buy a 32 or 64 gig SSD and 2gig ram.

Except for that, I'll have to inform you of what I get tomorrow.

I got a $500 bonus from work which is bad-ass.

I put it toward paying for a broken window, a fine for shoving a girl off of me at school (She got a $600 ticket for jumping on me and telling me she wished I was dead, I got a $127 ticket for pushing her off), I also bought castlevania: double pack and mazes of fate, and put the rest of it toward a car im saving up for.

My whole family is coming over tonight, and im getting presents tomorrow, i'll keep updated.

UPDATE:
I got about $65 from random family members (lost some though during a 20 person wii bowling tournament we had though)
seinfeld scene it
clothes
a few stephen king books
A new cell phone (LG ux260)
a nintendo wii
and an Ipod touch

this is probably the best year i've had for christmas gifts in a long time.

Last night I got cash from my relatives. This morning I got a bunch of tools, a cordless drill and flashlight combo set, some stuff for my new apartment, Tin Man and Battlestar Galactica Razor on DVD, and some candy. I had already gotten my big present, a Canon Powershot SX10 IS, which is a pretty high end point-and-shoot camera. 20x optical zoom, which is awesome. I don't need an SLR, but I want to be able to take high quality pics. :)

New black and white checkered Vans (shoes)
The new monopoly( the one with credit cards)
Two other board games
some men's body wash
$150 (this will go towards projects)

Not really gifts, but my uncle's dvd/vcr player's DVD drive stopped working, so he gave me the thing for parts. Also, my Grandpa's coffee maker crapped out, so he saved it for me for parts.
rest in peace, Ronnie James Dio! \m/
