Didn't really get any actual gifts for Christmas this year, was mostly cash for my trip to Tokyo. I had intended to pick myself up a nice expensive collectable but Alien and Predator had practically no presence in their nerd shops. I ended up finding some newer NECA figures and brought back an Ultimate Aliens Warrior (Brown) and a Fugitive Predator.

I also picked up 2 of the new trading figures who are made by a company I can't remember. Also brought myself Dark Horse's Essentials Volume 1 today too.

It was dark grey and trying to storm here this morning. Clear as a bell now. Not a cloud in the sky, zero wind, and the temperature is hovering between 55 and 60. Gorgeous weather for Christmas Day, though I'd much prefer a grey sky and snowfall.

Huh. It's clear where I am, but colder than hell.

Then again, I'm cold-blooded. I can't tolerate anything lower than 75 degrees.

I can go down to nearly 10 or 5 and still be fine with a jacket, as long as there's no wind chill. If there is wind, or it goes below zero degrees, I'll need some better gear to tolerate it for long periods of time, and I'll be uncomfortable. I'm sure there's some people up in Alaska and other places that look at 0 like it was 80. There's some tough folks out there.

It was interesting meeting people from Florida and Texas when I was in Chicago. They could not handle the cold. I said, "I'm from New York. This is completely normal. It is cold ten months out of the year for us."

Hey, I wouldn't mind a turtleneck . . .









If Hudson's face and a quote was on it.






Just sayin'.

I was thinking more ugly Christmas type ones.

Got a Nostromo T-Shirt. Gray with Black lettering and design. It was the first Alien related gift I've ever gotten from my family. Here's a stock pic.
