EARLY CHRISTMAS 

So much for getting outta bed early yesterday (Saturday). I wasn't outta bed until after 9:00 from what I can remember. Oh, well, it was the weekend.

Carrie spent the morning shopping for me. ME! Can you believe it? I had to hide in the bathroom when she brought home a present. I did laundry and etched a glass and fun stuffesses like that. In the afternoon I helped Carrie wrap all the presents for

EARLY CHRISTMAS

That's right! Yesterday was early Christmas! At 4:00 Carrie left to go pick up the kids, then she swung by the BF and picked up Brandy, and they all went to Rock Pasta for din-dins. Meanwhile, I got ready for Fools Play, and Ed picked me up on accout o' Carrie having the car.

Carrie & Brandy brought the kids down to Fools Play and we performed "Fools Play: Santa's Lap" to a very good-sized audience who were very appreciative. The kids loved the show. At one point in a scene Ed's character died, but the scene was so funny that Ed started giggling on the ground. Sophia pointed at him and said, very loudly, "The dead guy is laughing!" This only made everyone laugh harder. It was good times!

After the show we (extremely) quickly exchanged gifts with Sandy & Mathias. They gave me The Notebooks of Lazarus Long, which is one of only like three Heinlein books that I don't own. Two now, baby! They also gave us a super-cute Japanese lucky cat statuette. I gave them the CDs of The Mega Man Experience and The Animal Crossing Experience. I wish we had had more time, but we really had to rush outta there after the show so we could get the kids home at a reasonable time and have...

EARLY CHRISTMAS

Carrie & I took the boys, and Brandy & Geoff took Sophia. Melissa & Travis met us at Mark & Viki's. There we opened gifts. Here's what we got for people:

  • They Might Be Giants: The Spine
  • They Might Be Giants: Severe Tire Damage

    Sophia:
  • Lindsay Lohan: Speak


  • Julian:
  • GameBoy Advance / GameCube Link Cable
  • Animal Crossing

    Melissa:
  • Carrie gave her a skirt
  • I gave her a tank top with an overshirt.

    Travis:
  • A bottle of Tequila

    Mark:
  • A gift certificate to Primo Grill

    Viki:
  • Jewelry (duh)
  • A Photo Album of Wedding Pictures

    Geoff:
  • A Mickey Mouse shirt from Disneyland

    Brandy:
  • A Steamboat Willy shirt from Disneyland

    I didn't make out too badly myself. I got:

    Carrie got a cool set of Fat Tire pint glasses and some beauty products that the kids made themselves.

    After they opened Animal Crossing the kids basically ran downstairs and played it. They were still playing it when we left just after midnight. They named their town "Small Baby." Isn't that cute?

    After that Carrie & I drove home and ate the leftover pizza from Rock Pasta and went to bed.
