X-mas is over and Im back at work

That title pretty much explains it all 🙂 🙂 X-mas is over amongst much fanfare and partying.
The season made me put on 4k, 4k which came pretty much straight out of my wallet.. *sigh*

Things of note about the silly season:

My birthday party went very well, I had a Jamesons cocktail party, pretty much I took 4 of the cocktails from the Jamesons website, purchased 8 bottles of Jamesons, sushi and bbq food and threw a party. Attendance was around 40 people, about double what I predicted, so although we didn’t run out of alcohol we did run out of food… 🙁 A good time was had by all I think and I’d like to thank everyone who attended and made the night what it was.. 🙂

Christmas itself was pretty awesome, the whole family wasn’t there as dad was at work and only returned home on the same day I flew out. However I received and gave some pretty cool presents:

From mum & dad:
A set of D.Jones cutlery
I got them:
a ticket to the rotary new years in the city

From Jo:
Bottle of blue label Johnnie Walker
I got her:
A Ministry of Sound DVD & Past live regression hypnosis

From Julia:
A set of crystal glasses
I got her:
A new webcam and speakers

From Ange:
A glass platter
I got her:
A remote controlled mini

From Nadia & Nicole:
A $50 voucher – used to buy bathroom scales
I got them:
Lamp, Neon Genesis Evangelion art book.

that and there was the obligatory alcoholic purchases and stuff I got myself (which I went overboard on as usual, getting a $380 dining set (down from $700 in the post xmas sales) and 2 x shower heads which cost me $640 for the two (having to import them as they are $750 EACH in Australia).

That about sums it up really.. stand by for silly new years resolutions next!! 😀
