Got a DS like a trillion other people out there. Got an ipod, too which I think is nuts considering that just those two gifts would have been enough. Also got a few games, Mario 64DS, Paper Mario 2, and Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories. Also got a lot of money, which I think will go to the purchase of at least one more game. Got a crap load of DVD's this year too. I got some clothes too but I'm also a girl and that was inevitable (plus when you have a mom working at Filenes and gets uber discounts on clothes...). Plus I preordered Zelda the Minish Cap at a Gamestop at MOA, which means I'll actually have to go BACK to the MOA, and I hate the MOA (Mall of America for the non-Minnesotans, even though the natives call it the mega mall. I think that's retahded).

I'm still in a minor rut. I've been working on the Zelda Oracle games which has been helping me sleep at night because I settle down sooner, but I'm so bored with them. I think I'm also completely overwhelmed by my video game backlog. I'm still like a year and a half behind!!! Lost Kingdoms and Xenosaga are next on my long list of games that seems to keep piling up. I wish I could get back into Suikoden III since its such a good game, but its so long. Has my attention span rotted? Do I need a break from video games? I dunno... maybe if I get a few more good nights sleep (Christmas was not one of them), I'll feel better.
