I got slightly drunk and shot people with lasers.
In my world of sleepers, everything will be erased.
I'll be your religion, your only endless ideal.
Slowly we crawl in the dark.
Swallowed by the seductive night.

- a 19" 2ms 1000:1 contrast samsung syncmaster LCD to compliment my current one (dual display)
- a seagate 7200rpm 500gb hard drive to compliment by 2x300gbs of the same model
- A portable super-small 120gb portable hard drive for my laptop
- Dilbert books!
- And the usual variety of gloves, cheap gadgets and boxes of tic-tacs

..

I think I might be addicted to tic-tacs now.

edit: if im going to spell compliment wrong, at least I should be consistent about it

My sister got me the cookie jar that was on an episode of the original "The Office", a cop saying "Step away from the cookie jar."  When I saw that, I thought it was absolutely hilarious. 

I also got a real neat toolkit for use with computers, that has some pretty good quality parts inside, along with another general household tool set, Guild Wars to play along with my girlfriend, and some nice new clothes.  That, and some general spending money.  Quite nice really, not too extravagant. 

On the flipside, I got my girlfriend a PS2, and a MS Zune, along with Final Fantasy 10 10-2, 12, Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross.  At least we can do the PS2 stuff together, which is pretty nice.  (she loves the FF series.. awesome for me!)

      a Lego model of Darth Vader's TIE Advanced.

      Can you tell me what colors this uses? I was thinking of getting it as a parts pack (irrespective of christmas or whatever) but I can't tell from the pictures whether it uses white or one of the several shades of light gray they have these days.

      It's a lot of light grey.  No white what-so-ever.  Plus some dark grey, which for some reason I want to say has some degree of green in it.  Also, black.  Lots of black.

      eh, that sucks, I was hoping it was white. Black is always good, but I don't have much use for the bluish gray they use these days. I might just get a couple of the Batmobiles instead.
