Gave my girlfriend SIN AND PUNISHMENT 2, every Slowdive CD. Received deodorant, Sour Patch Kids, and socks. I didn't know anyone who had any money at all, so I just told people not to worry about getting me anything.

I did buy myself a ton of shit with my x-mas bonus money from work... D2 (already beat), Bangai-O (already beat), Shenmue, Beefheart: Through the Eyes of Magic book, a Godard book I ordered but can't remember the name of (I have read through EVERYTHING IS CINEMA 4 times now, so can't wait to read this), a Phillipe Garrel x2 DVD set, and a 11 DVD set from the director who did Swallowtail Butterfly, All About Lily Lily Chou Chou and so on.
