So for the first post of this new year, let's see what I got for Christmas. The short answer is, I got tons of books. Which is fine for me, since, as has been established, I am a huge nerd.

More art books! I am under good authority that the Don Hahn book is amazing, but I am curious as hell about the Terryl Whitlatch book and Disney Lost and Found.

My cousins got me a lot of hilarious little gifts. That mug in front has a neat hidden secret:
