| What books did you get for Christmas? This is a little late, but I saw a thread like this on the Movies board. I got lotsa books. I always do, because my family is spread over 5 states, so we mostly give books, CDs, and DVDs, because they're easy to pack. The Illustrated Theory of Everything, by Stephen Hawking Native Roots: How the Indians Enriched America, by Jack Weatherford Harlequin Valentine, by Neil Gaiman Um... That's all I can think of. I know there were more. I had a whole bag full of them. __________________ "When the wolves come out of the walls, it's all over." "What's all over?" "It." | |||

I celebrate Chanukah with my SO's family. When we have children, they are going to be soooo spoiled. My mom also got me a gift certificate for Christmas for my favorite used bookstore, so I bought four more books that I guess count as Christmas gifts too: The Hidden Dragon by Irene Radford The Zanzibar Cat by Joanna Russ Rhapsody by Elizabeth Haydon Street Magic by Tamora Pierce | |||

| I think it's probably the first Christmas where I didn't get any books as presents. I didn't reply to the thread before in case I would receive late Christmas presents (yes, yes, I still get those around January 15th ) and yet I didn't get any books at all this year. I was kinda disappointed because I always love to get new books, and so did I since I was a kid.__________________ The difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast : the chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed' | |||
