My snakes got their Christmas presents early...I realized I had money left on one of my credit cards so I went out and got them a whole bunch of stuff for their enclosures. They pretty much got new digs. Big early Christmas for them. I figure I will also give them each a treat tonight or tomorrow...an extra worm or half a pinky or something...they just ate the other night. Of course, Seeley is not eating right now.

I'm putting my checkered out of quarantine, into the cage with the rest today. He really needs it, he's pitifully insecure.

I don't doubt it. Hard to hate it now, when I got all that crap under the tree.

When you are the one buying that crap for unappreciative little twits, the magic is gone. They both get laptops and a wifi router, she gets leather, he gets tools, and they have the audacity to say "Not much under the tree this year"

I do look forward to Pumpkin Pie.

I'm lucky...my son is still at that appreciative age...not looking forward to the teenage years at all. Although I have already told him many times that if he becomes a craphead teenager he can always look forward to bootcamp....lol.

If they grew up like I did, they'd be overjoyed to see even one present under the tree. Up until I was 6 I lived with my dad and literally got at least 300 dollars worth of little toys and stuff, then when my mom and him broke up were were extremely poor. I rarely got to have anything, any time of the year. I usually got socks and a little toy, or every couple years I'd get something from the people who give away toys no one wanted. Even now, there's not much under the tree, but we're better off than a few years ago.

Well unfortunately...or fortunately...I guess depending on how you look at it...my son is kind of spoiled. His dad gets mad at me because I spoil him...but he is the only child I'm going to have and I wasn't sure I could have kids. He is a good kid with a good heart. He is giving and he cares about others...I think I have done a good job teaching him to be generous but I do spoil him. This Christmas he is getting a lot because next Christmas we are probably not going to have much at all. Finances are going to be bad next year so we are kind of going all out this year.
