Related to the "All I Want For Christmas Is...." thread but didn't want to hijack...

Here's what I got for Christmas...saw them while in Italy a couple years ago. I wasn't as serious about cycling and multi-sports as I am now, and probably would have been wearing a different size then vs. now. Thought it would be a good shirt to wear to my events, especially if someone would ask, "how will I be able to spot you in the crowd?" Those who know my twisted mind might know what my responce to that question would be...if I'm wearing this jersey.

I got glow sticks!  (Little things amuse me.)  And a blinking light for running at night.

I had previously bought bike rollers for myself.

Blackburn Flea lights combo so now I can do Wednesday morning hill training rides before work.

 A truing stand, which is going to get quite a workout.

 I also got another light set but I'm going to return that and use the credit to get some bike tools.

Fitness related: Running socks and new cross-country ski poles.

Totally for fun and not related to anything fitness or otherwise: Bass guitar. It's awesome!

I didn't get anything sports/tri related   It's probably a good thing since my family knows nothing about what I could use or want.  I did get a new kitchenaid mixer (which I've always wanted).

Power Tap 2.4 Wireless - Actually have a part missing and need to chase that down tomorrow with the LBS. New tools for training - can't wait to get on the bike for a longer workout and begin getting ready for the Triathlon season.

Santa got me a couple pairs of running socks, a hydration belt (just takes a single 16-oz sport bottle), and a chiller bandana (one with the beads that react with water). 

BAMBAM got me some traction devices (think Yaktrax, but not them), a pair of running gloves/mittens with an LED, and a set of wheels for my tri-bike that we'll pick up tomorrow.

summer here (due to get into the high 80s next week) so I got De Soto arm coolers and a beanie. Also a running vest with the Saltire (Scottish flag) on it so that everyone can spot me easily in a crowd.

Well I got a wii fit with some ski games. Then I got some under armor compression shorts and a pair of gym shorts (much much needed).  Then I got a camera ( a cheap one because I tend to break them ha).  Finally I am going to get fitted for some running shoes!!!  I also got some money to put towards a tri bike!  Pretty exicting if you ask me.  Also damn this holiday and its stupidly awesome food.

I got lucky and made out like a bandit. My wife loaded me up.

 Garmin Forerunner 405, Oakley Flax Jackets, Pearl Izumi Cycling Jacket, Brooks cold weather gloves, running socks, gu, under armour cold gear, a sweet running beenie that hooks up to the ipod and has headphones in it,  and my parents gave me a $200 gift card to trisports.com which I am going to use for some compression tights and new goggles.  It was a happy christmas in my household.

Oh yeah, and i got a sweet electric pepper grinder with a light on it.  You would have to see it to understand.
