Christmas!
Well, first off, Merry Christmas, everyone! Lots of health and wealth and love and blessings and happiness and sugar on you! :) My day was a...forgettable mass of teaching, much like any other Saturday, honestly. It really annoyed me to see how many students signed in for extra lessons. It's like...people, even if you don't celebrate Christmas, you should respect that the teachers here do. We don't want to be here, and today, we don't like you. *sigh* Ah well...
This morning, before we went to work, Aimee and I opened our dolls. They are free! Thomas is even more glorious now. He's adorable!
When we got home, Aimee and I exchanged our stockings, woot! Aimee got me delightful things, including American candy, British hot cocoa, boots for Thomas, a star necklace, and an Aichi World Expo Monchichi. Here are some pics!
The Kenshin figure is probably...oh, three inches tall. It's one of a new series of gashapon that I think are really cool! The faces don't have the best paint jobs, but the sculpts are great. Of the two girl figures, the one on the right (wearing white) is mine. I got the other one for Aimee. They're the main characters from the anime "Pretty Cure," and we maintain that they look like us. :) The Monchichi is pretty self-explanatory. Her hair is in the same two little tufts that the Expo characters have on the tops of their heads. Super cute!
Thomas was thrilled with his boots. Here he is:
And, last but not least, if you're interested, this is what my stocking looks like:
MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE! All my love and Grinchiness! *big hugs* Oh...and here's the Christmas movie that I am. :)

As a side note, have you been getting my emails? I only question because it has been a while since the last communication was sent! Have fun with all of your new presents!
