This being the record of things lovely people gave to me to celebrate my birthday:
- From , the DVD set of season 3 of MacGyver and the recently released Avatar: A Confidential Report on the Biological and Social History of Pandora, mostly because the planet is way more interesting to me than the movie 😉
- From , a physical copy of the album Nomad Soul by Baaba Maal (which I had previously borrowed electronically from ), two CDs by Afro Celt Sound System, and one by Altan which I actually already had and will be exchanging for something else
- From , a $20 gift certificate to Amazon
- From , a $25 Barnes and Noble gift card
- And from , who showed up for Jam this afternoon since he’s in town, a couple of gift certificates to Kinokuniya Bookstore, the bookstore next to Uwajimaya downtown. To wit, awesome!
Many thanks to you all! And me being me, I have of course already blown the Amazon and B&N gift cards on books, as follows:
