Fuck goodwill and togetherness - what did you get for xmas? - Page 2

What on earth are you building Clone?

Savage Clone · 12.25.2006, 12:00 PM

I have many home improvements to make.
First off, I am going to do my bathroom in galvanized corrugated steel, as opposed to the raw "construction project in progress" walls that I have been rocking for an embarrassingly long period of time.

Пятхъдесят Шест · 12.25.2006, 12:07 PM

I wish I was handy and crafty, my place could use some work.

Don't you think a steel bathroom would be reminiscent of a public restroom? You'll have to show pictures when its complete. Just to get a better idea.

Savage Clone · 12.25.2006, 12:16 PM

I'm going for an industrial feel. It's that crinkly zigzaggy kind of steel, and non-rusting. My bathroom is tiny so I'm having some fun with it.

And I'm not that handy. I did my living room mostly on my own, but if you look closely my amateurish skills are obvious. My dad will be helping for sure.

Prisstina · 12.25.2006, 01:14 PM

-A few different tops from Urban Outfitters
-Three long-sleeved shirts
-SY 100% Dirty shirt
-Scarf with matching gloves
-Four clothing reconstruction books (one has to be returned, I already have it)
-Gift certificate for Exclusive
-Owl necklace my mom made for me; kit to make another
-Set of stationary with owls at the top (also made by mommy)
-$100 (!) for my pay-as-you-go cell phone
-Target giftcard
-Cash
-Rubik's Cube (I will never figure out that damn thing)
-Two sets of pajamas; one with doggies and one with sock monkeys
-Leopard-print travel makeup case
-New printer/scanner (I've had the same one since 1998)
-Candy!

I also got this awesome vintage shrug from my boyfriend, as well as burned copies of Slanted and Enchanted and a Black Dice album.

Heading off to grandpa's house soon. Will get more stuff there.

Thomas Moronic · 12.25.2006, 01:37 PM

So far my favourite present is the Jeff Tweedy 'Sunken Treasure' live DVD. Tons of fun

Glice · 12.25.2006, 01:55 PM

Besides the haul of items - CDs, books, some utterly fantastic Italian Leather shoes which'll need to be sent back because they're too small, some fantastic 78s which've travelled a fair way across the country - my favourite thing of this Christmas was getting some film of my five-year-old neice dancing to Melt Banana wearing my Melt Banana t-shirt. Brilliance itself.

pulsar · 12.25.2006, 02:02 PM

A hat from Peru.
Photoshop Compendium (a thousand sites + 3h dvd) - a lot to do.
Bob Dylan book.
Banksy T-Shirt.

I don't know that's basically all. And a bit of money, which isn't bad at all. You know.

Isoflurane · 12.25.2006, 03:19 PM

I got a bunch of money.
I like getting the money more than I like presents, but I feel like a heel giving money.
I got a trip to memphis, and I get to spend time with my lovely lady.
That's all I got.
I bought myself a ton of Stax/Volt 7"ers to work on my collection.
I also paid off all of my medical bills, which feels pretty good.

No. These are cords. It would be a cord overload if I wore them with it. I have a new wool peacoat I've been wearing alot lately.
