I totally DID NOT get tickets. I got to Ticketmaster at about 9:05 because I slept through my alarm (I've been sick man!), only to be told they sold out in 1 minute.I'm totally spending $250 for one on eBay though. [edit] What's that? Some kind of SECOND SHOW? Huzzah! I bought 2 tickets for the Arcade Fire! [This message has been edited by Goose Patrol alexvilagosh (edited 12-11-2007).]

Heh. Yeah. Hilarious. Those cigars actually smell really nice. They're as good as an incense stick.

I went xmas shopping yesterday but I think I spent more on myself than other people. Floops. But I did get a nice skirt and pair of pants for work. *shudder* I never would have thought I'd be happy about buying clothing.

X-mas presents for OTHER people  Some nicely packaged Haiges chocolates for some of the girls at work, a Chris-Cringle present, and some other presents. I did get a few things for me. 2 pairs of shoes, they're basic "vans" slip-on style shoes (Zu is the brand) that look like either of crossword or tetris blocks, one pair grey/white, one black/white, so i can wear one pair or the other, or alternate. Also got Assassins Creed Artbook/Prima guide for $16. Bargain.

I donate to an organization called "Unconcerned." They take the donations and pay media outlets to not cover important news stories and instead focus on celebrity gossip, children who've overcome mild to moderate adversity, and hocus-pocus medical "breakthroughs". If we can't save the world (and we can't) I at least want to remain blissfully unaware of it.

True. One PS3 could also buy five AK-47s for a militia, and the rifles will still be lovingly in service in thirty years time long after your PS3 has rotted into dust. Bought: A pair of NN2S "Bike Gang" shirts.

Cooking stuff. Actually, I've had the non-nonstick pans for a while now, but the two nonstick skillets are new as are the rest of the gadgets and the little All-Clad pan. Total outset for the new stuff: about $100. The 8 piece set, which I got a few months ago, was only $30.

*steals* That is great. Meanwhile, I have spent all of my dollars on various xmas presents, the most recent of which being yet another pair of (orange) melissa shoes for my sister. ($55, cheap!) Pretty. Maybe I'll keep them for me.

My money has been disappearing into buying cycling equipment. As in a team uniform, winter clothes, clipless shoes and pedals, oh, and a new bike. Totaled almost $1300, but it's so worth it compared to the grand total of $250 of stuff (including the bike) that I was using before. *Cycling clothes not pictured, but I'm sure none of you want to see me in spandex anyway.
