Okay... I held off on sending out a Happy Holidays journal... but I just couldn't help myself; I had to do some sort of Christmas related journal. I'm just curious what everyone got (or gave)... any interesting gifts? I have an uncle who is always thinking of clever gifts to give out... this year he set up a game of Deal or No Deal. Each person got a chance to play (this was their gift). You picked one case (which had a certain dollar amount in it, that you weren't allowed to see). From there it went just like a regular game of Deal or No Deal. Eliminating other cases and having the "banker" give you an offer, to stop right there or continue if you wish. It was probably the most fun I've ever had with a Christmas gift... I thought it was just such a cool idea, and I ended up winning fifty bucks, heck ya! Something I personally did (for my immediate family)... was that I put "bonus gifts" along with the regular gifts. These were hidden around the living room, and contained self made gift certificates (Photoshop actually has practical use!!! Haha). For example, for my mom I gave her the "Foofy drink pass"... which is a certificate that tells her I will buy her a mixed drink of her choice for the next five times I go out to eat with her. She loves those drinks, but often they are a little expensive so she ends up not getting them. Anyway, that's a little of what I did.

Let me know... what did you get? What did you give? Did you have a fun holiday?

P.S.- As always, I'm totally aware that not everyone celebrates Christmas. So while I say Christmas, I really mean any holiday that you might celebrate at this time of year. Also, if you don't celebrate anything, just disregard this... I completely understand.
