Christmas was really fun, even for this Jew. Audrey spent the night and somehow held herself back from waking me and Chad up at the crack of dawn to open presents. When he and I got up at around ten she was calmly watching A Christmas Story, a huge change from the night before with her incessant "Dad can we pleeaaasseee open presents tonight???!". Cute. For Christmas, I'm taking Audrey to the salon I used to work at tomorrow to get a haircut by a really great stylist. I'm getting my hair cut too and we're both really excited about it. I've been growing my hair out and it's gotten really long, but it's also a big mess. I got Chad lots of little things including: an awesome pair of shoes, the I Am Plastic toy book along with some toys, a subscription to Juxtapose magazine, boxers, pajama pants, an Onion newspaper day calendar, and the second season of I Am Alan Partridge which hasn't come in the mail yet. Chad got me a shit load of gifts including: the Amy Sedaris book, the Post Secret book, a little food processor (yay!), a microplane and a couple other graters which I've been wanting for a while, a new pair of Converse (gun-metal low tops), a single-cup coffee maker, a panini press/grill which is fucking awesome (we've already made about 10 grilled cheese sandwiches with it), a pink Nintendo DS lite which is really cool but also kinda for him too.
After we finished opening gifts we took the train into town to see Children of Men which was an amazing movie. It kinda made me want to kill myself, but it was a very moving, well made movie none-the-less. You should see it. After the movie we walked to Naan & Curry for lunch. The food there is great but you always leaving reeking of tandoori which really, really bugs me. After lunch Audrey went home and Chad and I cuddled up on the couch, ate homemade fudge, and watched Antiques Roadshow until I feel asleep.
