    Default YOUR Christmas Present?

    Have you decided on a present for yourself this Christmas? I think we're allowed to indulge in something rather special and/or expensive, do you think?

    Recently being hunting down all of the old Pokémon games, and I've just bought Emerald version for myself. It was rather expensive, but it was new and factory sealed, so it was worth the hefty price tag.

    So, anything you've got your eye on for yourself?

    I bought myself a new deck, subwoofer, and an amp for my car recently.

    So I'm not the only one who gets herself a Christmas present. Good to know.

    Urban Outfitters was offering free shipping after Thanksgiving, so I got myself a tapestry that's been on my Amazon wish list for a few years, a rug that was on sale, and a matching peacock statue. I had a particularly good day for sales at my Etsy store so the purchase was totally justified. My home office needs a rug, dammit.

    I'll see if there's any good Steam/GoG sales going on around then, I guess. Or I might go to GameStop if I'm feeling REALLY ambitious!

    Everything I buy myself just turns into coal.

    Lumps and lumps and lumps of coal.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    Mogi and I are fixing the Xbox and buying one new game. It'll be the first game we'll have bought since FFXIII over a year ago.

    I buy myself a book every Christmas. I go to the bookstore and wander around till I find something that looks interesting that I would never have bought normally.

    Sonic Generations and Assassin's Creed Revelations are both on my list. And maybe a new external hard drive for more space if I scrounge enough money together. Generations was on sale on Amazon during Black Friday, but alas I missed it.

    I'm like, Mr. Arsonist 2000. And 2003, if you saw my beautiful work on assorted AOL CDs. I've kinda not been up to my old form in 2004, but here's hoping.

    I'm going to have to buy myself a copy of Skyrim. xD
    God, and it's still so expensive.
