Third day in and it might be the best year yet
Strange break this year. I was coming home no matter what but I wasn't sure whether or not I actually wanted to. The smart thing to do would have been to stay and try to find a job over Christmas (is anyone else sick of saying "the holidays?") since I'm completely broke. But family being what it is and the plane ticket having already been bought, I'm here. And it's going pretty well.
I dunno if people have loosened up a bit (just a bit though - it's still pretty crazy) or what but I'm so far having an okay time. Also, we have tons of booze in our house this year. This is rare at my house, like really rare. But we've got half a bottle of Bailey's left over from last year, most of a Texas mickey of rum from when Micah was home over the summer (Dad thought it was the nose off of a space shuttle), and a bottle of vodka from I don't know where, not to mention lots of wine, beer, and old tequila actually from Mexico. It's just so bizarre to see it all in this house now.
There's now so much here that I can, if I want to, be drunk for the entire time I'm home. And I'm kinda thinking about doing it as an experiment. I've never been a big drinker, so what would it be like if I were to spend the next three weeks completely sauced? I'm thinking of doing it as quietly as I can and see if anyone notices. They definitely wouldn't notice a difference in the amount of rum gone. I'm a lightweight and it's really, really huge. I'm thinking I may have to do it. You know, for science.
