Well for about 2 weeks now my girlfriend has been bringing up the topic of presents.. or mainly how excited she is to give me mine (she guessed hers about a month ago at dinner so i gave her her's early... it was a gar starter) anywho she kept bringing it up over and over and she knew i kept getting sooo frustrated becuase i get really antsy with surprises and i kinda guess it was for my car or about my car. I kept guess and couldnt figure it out so it was bugging the HELL outta me but i finally go it and i think it is BY FAR the COOLEST present i have ever got. (It was hand painted by my tattoo artist the Ink Tailor-Adam Chiodo it is an oil painting about 32x14 or so) But what did everyone else get... Happy Holidays everyone!
Some Blu-Ray movies, Rock band 2, a EVGA 9800GT and some clothes... little more tomorrow night... Divorced Parents = 2 Christmases!
so far, a custom corvette rear bumper (gf) and a lil model car of a C6R race corvette (bro). tomorrow when my parents come over, im sure i am getting money, so that will allow me to buy my two new Sparco Evo/2 seats!!! BTW KSAL: Adam deos awesome work! myself and my dad have a dozen tats done by adam! we love em' and keep going back for more! his painting is amazing, but his tats are AWESOME!!!
The new clutch and flywheel, but I don't really get to have fun with them until I put 340 more miles on them. Dammit, break-in periods suck.
You know what I got for Christmas? Oh, it was a banner ****ing year at the old Bender family. I got a carton of cigarettes. The old man grabbed me and said, "Hey, smoke up Johnny." Alright? So go home and cry to your Daddy. Don't cry here, okay? lol, jk. I'm really thankful of the gifts I've received this year. I got a Wild jersey, craftsman work bench, bench vise, propane heater. Doing a belated Christmas with the family and expecting the usual... beef jerky and money. Favorite gift I'm giving is this cheesy lightup Hallmark gingerbread music box thing for my grandma. She loves that kinda stuff and I'm sure I'll get a kick out of hearing her turn it on every hour... well, for the first few hours anyhow.
nothing... ha ha... ok a new baby girl, a new house, a workshop (getting insulation etc in Jan) so really not much left for actual chrissy presents... but I have a great wife and family so what else does one need
so far a gift card to autozone to buy OIL!!!!!! valvoline durablend ftw. $4 per QT you cant go wrong. and an air freshener.
I got some movies, a nice tourqe wrench, 20g, hella horns and more to come this weekend when we goto the wifes side!!!
Oh, and I got a new drill and a huge drill bit set, and it doesn't have a chuck key to lose. Also, candy, and some boiling pots from my parents which freakin' rock. **EDIT** also, Discover Card gave me a Clarion USB head unit and a pair of 3.5" and 6" Infinity Reference speakers.
Cashback bonuses FTW! They had a thing where if I bought online gift certificates, they would add bonuses to them. Crutchfield had one where if I bought a 40 dollar gift cert, they'd up it to 50. So, I spent 200 of my cashback rewards on Crutchfield gift certificates and got 250 bucks in actual money to play with there.
finally got a jack, jack stands and a creeper. Also got pants, movies, gift cards (to upgrade my 39 ) a book entitled "Stuff White People Like", a cute photo collage the GF put together and some other stuff I can't remember cause I left it at the GF's.
My in-laws got me a St. Croix ice rod and some clothes My brother-in-law got me a portable shelter heater! Wife got me some clothes. And my son has had a blast and been all smiles playing with his new toys which is better than anything one could wrap. We're headed to my folks place this afternoon to watch Ralphie shoot his eye out like every other year and to chill out.
Where can a buy paintings like the one in the first post? I got: Jumper cables, shovel for the trunk, new winter hat/neck warmer/coat, some microfiber cloths, small amount of money. Got some other coming, I know its probably going to be parts for my 240 or the wrx.
Secret handshake required. Also gotz some more ratcheting metric wrenches...slowly cobbling together an arsenal.
I got an REI gift card, a calender with kittens on it and..... I bought myself a BlackBerry Storm Amy
well, i got a bed set, some tray tables... some gift cards... and a 2 year extesion to subie sport mag....
My GF got one of those too! She ruined the surprise by being home when it was delivered. The box may be label-less, but she knows the shipping address by now. Got a sweet 15 piece screwdriver set and a roller seat tonight.
