Question of the Day: What is your favorite holiday memory?

[JunmaiShu]

My favorite holiday memory is of a Christmas when I was very young. I got some very nice presents that year, including a Sega Genesis that I coveted dearly. Before you go thinking I'm materialistic though that's not what made that Christmas so special. It was the last Christmas our family ever spent together. My mother and father separated shortly after.

Every other Christmas has paled by comparison.

@JunmaiShu No, didn't think materialistic at all. Reading Sega Genesis made me smile & chuckle. :) Aww, my heart feels for you. I understand what it's like to cherish a last holiday together.

One time when we tried putting the star on the Christmas tree, the clip broke and we had to use robber bands to try and keep it up. It worked though. Merry (belated) Christmas!

Getting a slot car racing set and seeing a santa's bite in a cookie.

@michaelmckeever9 LOL Santa's bite, really? :) Does he take big chomps or is he a nibbler? Heh.

[michaelmckeever9]

LOL! It was a medium size bite best I can remember.

[tracitoguchiinc]

@michaelmckeever9 LOL Good to know for future cookies. Heh.

Today when I got enough money to buy a macbook(about 800 bucks). Guess I will buying it in the next couple of weeks. The sooner the better cause I can't take my computer anymore. All the crashes and errors I get..so annoying. I am buying a used macbook! YAY. Merry Christmas to all!

[tracitoguchiinc]

Wow, yay!! Yes, being able to get a computer that works is fabulous! Congrats & Happy MC Day. :)

[diablo9333]

@tracitoguchiinc Well mine works. But not as good. Another good thing that happened to me today is that I learned almost the whole song Estranged by GNR and almost have it 100% memorized except for the solos.

[tracitoguchiinc]

That is kewl! Great use of CDay. :) Looking forward to the vid!

[diablo9333]

@tracitoguchiinc Hopefully I can make one. I notice that when I tried to film me playing another song last week(might post guitar videos on another channel) and it sounded had buzz when every I played it. Might need to get better pickups.
