So, What Did You Guys Get for Christmas? [Trends]

[KiRby]

Anything homemade or stolen, as predicted? Anything howlingly inappropriate? Did people totally cheap out this year and use the economy as an excuse?
"There were gifts, yes, but fewer than usual, and only for the children," opines today's NYT. Also, "Many tried to avoid sacrificing quantity by scaling back on quality." Read: cheap wine.
Conversely, was your family gathering happy, boring, "strained but civil," or the Superbowl of dysfunction? Did anyone scream "I hate Christmas!" before slamming a door?
As for me, I got a jacket from my boyfriend (luckily, not a redundant Paul Smith one) and a permanent unpaid vacation from work via my boss! Oh, and I'm going to get my teeth fixed. Thanks Dad!
