Fun bits of weirdness...

So my parents put a Utilikilt under the tree for me (appalling picture...not the Utilikilt's fault). I may never wear pants again. I've wanted one for several years, but now it is all mine. Appears to be very well made and way too comfortable for words. What fun.

My wonderful wife replaced by all-but- completely destroyed electric razor  with a new Braun. It is very cool and sleek and long overdue (my last Braun electric razor is about 11  years old or so and died about a month or so ago). I hope it lasts as long...paying for razors make me itchy...though not as much as facial hair...

My sister and BiL gave me a green laser pen. Red laser is easy...and common...GREEN on the other hand is very cool. Better yet, it is bright enough that you can see the beam in the air in the dark (great for star gazing). Now I have to do more presentations so I have an excuse to use my cool green beam....or just play with the cat...

Many books changed hands, the kids are Legoing their brains out. The boys both got wooden model war engines (Thing One a trebuchet and Thing Two a catapult). Mom and dad gave Suz a Lippi Selk wearable sleeping bag (in red)...she is WAYYYY too cute in it...and toasty warm.

The afternoon has been lazy fun, hardware setup (mom got an iPhone and dad a MacBookPro). Dinner is started (traditional English xmas...roast beef, yorkshire pudding, etc). Movies to follow. Just a very nice day. I hope yours has been as amusing...
