i hope everyone had a good thanksgiving and all that jazz. we went to jeffs moms. mmmm foood. i love thanksgiving food, and christmas too. only, all the kids i know have christmas food similar to thanksgiving food: corn, stuffing, ham, turkey, rolls, yams, etc etc. but not us. we have spaghetti. oh...that is right. spaghetti. with garlic bread and sodie pop. or wine. whatever. and we do our christmas on christmas eve. we listen to christmas music while we eat, and everybody smiles, and laughs and cusses. it's loud and obnoxious, but it's one of the best days of the year. i think that even if the present factor wasn't there, then it would still be one of my favorite days. me and my cousins hang out in my room and watch stupid shows on mtv and listen to too loud music and the adults tell us to turn it down. i like that part because i don't have any girl cousins who live around here to tell me that i'm acting like a boy and it's not proper for a girl to burp and cuss and laugh loudly. i like hanging out with jeremy, justin, and jason. but it's fun, and nobody gets mad at anybody else. now...christmas evening me and tony go to my dad's parents and his brother and sisters are there with their kids and grandkids and husbands and wives. it's fun there too, but i like it better at my house with my mom and jeff and all them because at my dads parents you laugh quietly, and talk appropriately, and say excuse me and thank you, and please pass blah blah blah. but at moms if someones in the kitchen getting food you yell "HEY! gimme another piece of bread, etc" you know? and over at dads parents we don't eat traditional christmas-y food either. we eat chicken soup. not chicken noodle soup, just chicken. grandma makes that shit homemade, and she doesn't give the recipe to anybody. ahhh it's soooo good. but, anyways, i don't really know why i'm talking about christmas, it's barely past thanksgiving. plue, i have to work chirstmas eve and christmas day. poo.
wednesday was my birthday. needless to say, i don't feel any different now that i'm 18. i mean, i can buy cigarettes now, but i don't smoke, and i don't really feel the need to support anyone elses habit of smoking. so, that's pointless. i can buy lottery tickets, but then i'll be poor. uh...i can go to the clubs too, but i hate rap music, and i have no clue how to boogey or whatever...i cannot dance at all. i can't shake my ass, even though it's quite j. lo-ish. yea. so that's pointless as well. hmmm...i can get pierced, but i think i'm pierced in all the places i want to be pierced in. and i can get tattoos too, but my dad's doing those for me. i can get into all the good 18 to enter shows now too, only...we don't have any of those here. so being eighteen isn't too terribly exicting im afraid to say.
