A Wonderful Christmas

I had a wonderful Christmas this year, better than I’ve had in a long time. It wasn’t just because of all of the wonderful gifts either. I was off of work from Thursday the 23rd through Tuesday the 28th. I had a lot of time to sit, relax and enjoy my presents. Speaking of presents, I got lots of great stuff. Some of the highlights were a Minolta DiMage Z1 digital camera, a black leather jacket a 12-disk Lord of the Rings Triology Extended edition DVD set, Seinfeld seasons 1, 2 and 3 on DVD some nice ceramic mugs and lots of DVDs. There was a ton of other stuff too that I really enjoyed.
My digital camera has been tons of fun. It has a full manual mode so you can really get some great pictures out of it. I’ve been taking pictures like crazy and they look amazing. I ordered a couple of things for my camera on ebay, a 256Mb memory card and a tripod. They should both be here this week hopefully. One of the cool things about the camera is that it records high quality video at 30Fps. It’s an awesome camera.
The Lord of the Rings set that I got is awesome. Each movie has 4 disks and 2 of them are special features. I’ve been watching them every chance I get. The Seinfeld DVDs are awesome too, but I haven’t had much chance to watch them yet. Some of the other movies I got were: The Matrix Revolutions, Spiderman 2, Deep Impact, The Perfect Storm, The Passion of the Christ, Napoleon Dynamite, Titanic and Office Space. Lots of movies that I’ve been wanting to get for a while.
I’ve still got some Christmas money left over and I think I’m going to save a little more and buy a home theatre system. I’ve got a set of large speakers and a receiver, but they’re old and aren’t 5.1. Plus you can get a nice set for under $200 so I’ll probably go for the upgrade.
Guess that’s it for now. Be watching the picture of the week to see what pictures I’m taking with my new camera!
