Christmas is fast becoming a memory and I haven't posted any of the great gifts I got. Before I left for my parents Heather and I exchanged gifts. She got me a lot of cool gifts. She gave me a Jimny Cricket coffee cup. When I went to Disney this past year I searched for anything with Jimny on it, to no avail. I was told that they don't stock anything with him except for around Earth Day. So this is just too cool. If I get a chance I'll take a picture and post it later. Also a Beatles coffee mug. This is the animated Beatles from their cartoon days. Really cool. And a Superman alarm clock. I haven't had a chance to use this yet, but I will. When the alarm goes off it is supposed to flash a big S on the ceiling. How cool is that?
My brother got me the Anthology of Folk Music edited by Harry Smith. This is a collection that I've been wanting to get for awhile, but just have never did. This is the folk music that inspired a generation, including Bob Dylan, to help shape their music.
My parents gave me mostly money, since I didn't get a list of things to choose from. But that's cool, there is nothing wrong with money. Now I just have to decide what I want to buy.
My sister got me a pile of books. Always a good choice.
My neice and nephew got me a book about John Lennon. One that I atcually don't have, which is a wonder in itself.
So all in all it was a very good Christmas as far as presents go.

Sounds like you got some great stuff.
A Superman alarm clock that shines a big "S" in the morning? That is cool!
I'm also glad to hear you got to spend some quality time with your father. I know it's been tearing you up to live such a distance away from him while he's been ill. In fact, I'm sure that the time you spent together was probably the most precious gift either of you could give to the other.
It sounds like you had a great Christmas.
