Bag of Crap

On Christmas Day at 1 am, Woot.com put up for sale a "Bag of Crap." They sell these about eight times a year, and they sell out almost instaniously. That's because they only cost $3 and can come with anything. There have been reports of flat screen TVs, appliances, etc. One guy got 2000 toy soldiers. The site warns you to expect nothing, especially because they call it crap. But Alicia and I were excited!

Flash forward three weeks later, and our bag of crap finally arrived in the mail.



Well, they were right. It is crap. Here's the nicest thing we got:



You can see the fact or crap daily calendar next to it. We haven't even opened it up yet, honestly. Spock is great, though.



We also got these "luxury" calculators. I bet they went all out on these.





Last but not least, we got some buckets. They had tags from a florist on the bottom. Huh.

Well, it was as advertised. Very fun, though. I'd do it again for $3!

Christmas 2009

The Holidays have come and gone and we're already well into the new year. But I've got one fantastic picture to share.

On Christmas Eve, Alicia and I were busy talking to our family on the phone, eating a wide variety of junk, and slowly opening presents. So we did a terrible job of taking pictures. But I managed to snap these pictures of Alicia opening a gift from her parents:

Is that a girl whom loves her Legos ®, or what? I promised I'd post this picture about two weeks ago. I hope it was worth the wait!

Just to round out the holiday pictures, here's the kitties:
