What are you getting for Christmas?

Post by Nightcat » Mon Dec 22, 2008 1:08 pm

I've asked Santa for a new motherboard, 3 gig+ duel core processor and 4 gig of ram.. I should have it up and running sometime around Christmas, it might be a bit late due to Santa not getting my note to a bit late >_<

My computer has been a bit pants for quite a while, and I was always on top of it and keeping it up to date until we had our first child. :( We can't get rid of her apparently, which is a shame, and the lesser half has gotten fat again! I don't know why it keeps happening, I must of done some really bad things in a previous life or something !

So yeah I'm really excited about the new rig, can't wait to put it together and get back in the skies. With an extended holiday this Christmas I'm hoping to get shed loads of fly time, I'll just need to track down Sneaky to help me set up stuff :D

Merry Christmas one and all !

Yeah, thought I'd try the Santa route too , but due to an unfortunate mix up at the sorting office .. .

You were able to upgrade your pc after you were married?!?!?

For me it wasn't the kids being born, it was the wiff movin' in.

All I want for Christmas are two bags of peanut M&M'sâ„¢ and my Members Only jacket re-sewn.

You'd think a jacket would last at least twenty-five years or so.

Merry X-mas and happy 1000th,

I bought myself a heli sim and upgraded my hardware.

In the family we aren't exchanging presents, just spending time together.

Yeah, but first I need to get someshirts without buttons on their sleeves to wear the studs. Actually, I have only one such shirt but it is very colorful and therefore not suitable for my job;)
