My first Christmas on my own was not all I cracked it up to be. I kept insisting to myself that I would not miss my family... but when Kelli woke me up very early for presents I stayed in bed after she left and cried. She was not Alex. She was not Jim. Hell, her family even goes about opening presents all wrong. They had the same thing for dinner as they did on Thanksgiving! Toss things up a bit, people! But really, they are great people and I was very happy to be with them; it's just that it wasn't the same, see?
Rock Band is my new favorite thing. Kelli sings, her brother John is on drums and I've got guitar. Any random Joe who comes over gets to be bass. Our characters are HOT and we can play for hours and not even notice that time has flown by!
I finally got health insurance. Whoopee. It has done me no bloody good. There are no primary physicians in this area accepting new patients at this time. Hell, come to find out a couple nights ago my insurance DOESN'T EVEN COVER WHAT I GOT IT FOR! They give a general overview of their coverage when you are picking one out and it made no mention of this, so when I cracked open the 93743979 page book and found the page on it I was devastated. Damn this whole system! New Mexico hates me!
So we're moving (yes, this means me too). House is supposedly going on the market in January. I'm still not that thrilled, but I can't help but catch Kelli's excitement about the whole thing. There is a job prospect for me... so we'll see how that pans out. For now we're redoing practically everything in the house. Oh joy. Pulling up tile, painting, cleaning, boxing and packing. Just what I want to do after working 60 hours a week. Oh well. Picking out houses online is kind of fun.
