Happy New Year everyone!

I'm finally gonna post what I gave and received for Christmas even though it's still an incomplete list. I wasn't trying to make posting this around the new year and posting my New Year's memes around Christmas a tradition by doing it this way two years in a row, but I guess it happened anyway.

← 2012 2014 →

What I got:

- Super Mario 3D World (as I've mentioned) from Mom (and she also preordered Mario Kart 8)
- Wreck-It Ralph game for 3DS
- Mario Party: Island Tour (although I can't play it all the way yet because my R button broke again :( )
- Portal and Portal 2 from [livejournal.com profile] ellaina02 (The first two Xbox games I've ever owned. I'd realized this year that I've thought "This Xbox game looks cool, but I don't think it'd be worth getting an Xbox just for this one game" enough times that it might be worth asking for an Xbox and some of those games for Christmas. Except I eventually decided I'd rather have PC versions of them, so that's what I got. :) )
- DVD of Monsters University
- The Hyperbole and a Half book and Garfield: From the Trash Bin from [livejournal.com profile] pathvain_aelien
- "I ♥ Enya" T-shirt (contrary to what this userpic implies, I didn't have such a shirt until now) from Jake
- Garfield "I hate Mondays" 2014 calendar from Mom
- GameStop gift card from my roommate
- $50 from my grandparents

What I gave:

- I got Mom an Air Supply CD, a new pair of headphones, and a butterfly needlepoint
- I got Dad a subscription to a magazine I thought he'd be interested in
- I got my grandparents a turtle solar light for their garden, since they like turtles
- I got [livejournal.com profile] pathvain_aelien a book or two, some supplies for knitting, and I think something else
- I got Jake some supplies for painting
- I got Nace filters for his humidifier
- I got my roommate a DVD of the Mortal Instruments movie

And there was more (because I know I got ellaina02 something), but I don't remember it all now and I probably have some of these mixed up with things that I considered giving until I decided on something else to give.

Yes, I'm a bad person for not remembering what I got everyone. You don't need to remind me :(

Speaking of me being a bad person... what entry was the last straw now? Because a couple of recent entries in my journal don't have any comments at all, so I feel the need to ask again...

It's hard to describe this journal in just a few paragraphs... but I'll try

Just an autistic guy born in 1993 (hence the username) who's had this journal since I was 14. Has trouble phrasing things well especially in earlier entries, so keep that in mind.

My interests have fluctuated in the 17 years since I've had this journal, but the following has remained constant:
- I like Mario games (mainly the platformers, Mario Kart, Mario Party) and Super Smash Bros.
- I like Garfield
- I like Homestar Runner
- I like Enya
- And I've always loved the idea of wacky crossovers between ANY of my interests, whether it's in the form of a short-lived webcomic in 2006-2008, a short-lived backwards lyrics site in 2008, writing down weird dreams in 2009-2011, playing Tomodachi Life a lot in 2014-2016, or what most of my posts are about these days: playing around with Character.AI starting in 2023. I still can't believe I'm actually in a world where an AI of Enya can talk to AIs of Mario or Garfield or even my favorite obscure characters like Mary O. from Super Mario Maker. :O
