Post Christmas post.
I'm glad Christmas is over.
My family decided to not buy gifts for each other, which was nice. I told everyone I didn't want anything anyway, but of course my mom asks me to construct a list because she feels like she has to buy us things. Or maybe that's not true...she just likes to?
My dad and younger brother were both out of town, and my sister couldn't make it back, so it was a little strange but not bad. I don't get too worked up either way about Christmas.
It was...okay seeing the extended family again. I'm beginning to think that just sitting at home with the immediate family and relaxing would be much better, and next tear might strive to make that happen. It's just too much sometimes.
A list of some stuff I got:
- sweet beard/mustache trimmer
- A book about cults throughout history
- "The strain" and "The fall" by Guiellermo Del Toro ( the Pan's Labyrinth dude)
- A book about the battle for Stalingrad
- Alien Anthology boxset on blu ray (such a quality set)
- Playstation Move starter bundle (controller, camera, sports champions game)
- NHL Slapshot for the Wii with that hockey stick controller
- Assassins Creed Brotherhood for the 360
Playstation move is pretty cool, not much difference between it and a Wii remote, in my eyes, but it does some stuff better, allegedly. Sports Champions is like Wii sports but probably more fun, my mom and I played Frisbee golf a lot.
Also, it glows really bright and looks like a toxic ice cream cone, which I still think looks absurd as hell.
But the camera allows for some silly shit, too. Like when you win a cup and get to take a snapshot:
Good times.

It tastes like burning!

haha that looks awesome! Ive been thinking about getting Kinect.
I think that's like mom code or something. I told my parents not to get anything for me either and they still did. I'm not complaining haha.
Kinect looks kind of intriguing but also retarded. I can't imagine playing a game and not having a controller.
I've seen and read lots about it and it seems some games are fun..but they are dumb shit like dancing games that don't appeal to me at all.
I don't mind motion controlled games, but fuck, at least give me some buttons like the Wii and PS3 do.
Also apparently you need a lot of space for Kinect and I sure as fuck don't have it.
I'd have one for free, but not for $150.
