5/3 though I think my cousin’s boyfriend might have a strange impression of me now. Worth it. He has to prove his worth here, by accepting the weird :P

4/3

Well, it turns out my cousin’s German boyfriend is not political and has never heard of Jane Austen. But the rest of the family has, and thought it was hilarious.

I definitely had fun as a Secret Santa this year, even if it cost me more than I care to admit.

And I needed one more book, something to lighten the mood...

Well, the best comedy I know is _Good Omens,_ so I naturally chose that. I've read it at least 10 times. (Highly recommend)

And I decided to number the gifts, so he'd open them in order.

For more effect, I guess...

3/3

After some deliberation, I decided on _The Communist Manifesto._ I had a wonderful teacher who once told me that he read it every Christmas, so it seemed appropriate.

I don't know if my cousin’s boyfriend is political at all, but I reckon Marx is a safe bet.

That's a wonderful interpretation of hip-hop and definitely sounds appealing! There's a unique, experimental, re-inventive sound to airwindows plugins that I really love; I imagine that this new console will beautifully accentuate that characteristic. What a wonderful Christmas present!

I've never produced HipHop in my life, and yet I'm super excited for this. Thank you Chris!

I have at least three cat-inflicted cuts on my hands at all times, but not being able to type is a rare and tragic death sentence. Hopefully it heals soon!

Seriously. There's a reason no mixing engineer or audiophile use wireless (or at least much).

Also a matter of value: you can get $20 wired in-ear-monitors that sound as good as $200 wireless buds, _easily._
