Today I got a Microsoft Notebook wireless mouse. :)

Won't use it for my laptop, because I'm quite used to a trackpad, but I'm going to replace the strange setup that my desktop was...

-Wireless mouse that came with my keyboard, with a broken left click button
-Apple mouse that conveniently only has a left click button.
I used both of them at the same time, and got quite adept at doing so.

The problem with using one mouse now is that my hand will take forever to get used to it.

That would be impossible. I did really like Christopher Ecleston.. his short amount of time was appropriate though.

New Cell Phone
IPod Nano, 8GB.
Gears of War 2
Left 4 Dead
Fable 2
New Headphones
Some random clothes...
52" HD LCD TV - Not completely all for "me," personally. It's more of a gift for the entire family, but I'll be the only one who uses it.

Left 4 Dead is awesome.

I'm having the Cell Phone and IPod Nano returned. I don't need a new cell phone, and I'd stop carrying around the Nano after a month.

I got a pair of science goggle things that my Sergeant found on the ground. I'm really sort of confused as to where it came from.

That's pretty much it. Actually a much better gift was the fact that I slept 8 hours on the christmas eve night/christmas morning, usually I get about 3 hours a sleep per day.

But yeah, I got to spend December 9th-January 6th or so doing guard duty in Camp Pendleton away from home, so if any of ya'll think you had it bad this christmas, trust me, you don't.

My mother got a new Canon Rebel XS, but it's the families, heh.

e: XS, my bad.

Stupid question, but does anybody know if it can take Infrared pictures? I read somewhere that you have to change the filter for an infrared filter (Well, one that doesn't filter infrared light), but it was for the XSi. I assumed it's the same for the XS, anybody know? (EOS 1000D for those out of US)

Nice camera, wish we could have gotten that one, but the XS is still a great camera for what we need. We have an old Telephoto lens from a film Canon camera my Dad got 20 odd years ago.

I was going to get a Core 2 Duo and OC, but I got the i7 to be more future-proof. I mean, the things just came out!
