Made it!

Aug 08, 2008 12:20

I've made it to Portland safe and sound, passed the hell out on the plane and woke when turbulance threw my seatmate into me. -.-

I hate middle seats; that is all.

Went special shopping with Dad; he's worse than I am when it comes to asking "Does this sound good?" "Ohh, what about this?". Probably because he was just as hungry as I was. XD

Got home, had some spaghetti-os that my sister can yell at me for eating later. Kicked back and snuggled my baby (she's still pissed at me. Woman can hold a grudge better than her mother can) for a while, I don't think her hips are doing so good, seems harder for her to sit down and get back up.

Saw
semlovari when she dropped some stuff off for Chibi to use in Drama production this year and had a good chat with her.

... and Chibi is also in a LOT of trouble for a few different things. Mom's not happy that Dad's believing everything she says and isn't bringing the hammer down on her. She said something subtle last night, Dad said something and I, naturally, put my two cents on it by saying the following:

"Man, if that was me? You guys would have dragged my ass right back home and kept me there. But then again, the oldest child is the one you're supposed to set an example with."

The smug look on my mother's face was priceless. XD

Dinner was 'gasmic; I love my parents' cooking and will be bringing back recipes because they love cooking and Mom will be teaching me how to do a few things. Probably. >.> We'll see.

Steak (screamed and bled all over the place when I bit into it; just the way I like my meat; yes boys and girls, that's as dirty as it's intended to be. <3), Garlic and Pepperjack mashed potatoes, Green Beans (Which I've been craving like a motherfucker; Mom says my iron count has got to be waaaay low), and homemade focaccia bread with home grown rosemary spread over the top.

Passed out about... 9pm last night. XD I felt bad because I was watching sexyawesome dancing with Mom (Yes world, Sekai loves to watch dancing, ice skating and gymnastics; godie of a heartattack from her feminine watching habits now. <3) and next thing I know, I've woken up at 10 this morning going, "...oops." with three blankets on me; THAT one was Mom's doing.

I have also discovered another huge perk to being a carbon copy of my mother, other than watching and seeing what I have to look forward to being like (as neurotic as we all are in my family) in 20 years, is that I get whatever doesn't fit her.

My mother is a very fashionably tasteful woman. I love 3/4 of the shit she buys and I have two bags I've gone through, happy as a clam, and squealed over some of the stuff in there. Majority is work clothes but, is also some good stuff I can mix and match with the wintery stuff I have.

Going to join her at the mall here shortly, have some lunch and do a little Mama-Daughter chat like she knows and has said like, four times now, that we'll be having. Probably have fun at said mall too.

So yes, thus far, Day One of Hometime is good. Enjoying myself very much and am glad to see everyone. I so missed my family's commentary on shit on TV; Dad has me in tears every time.

I find myself missing Denver and everyone there too even though it's only been a day now since I left. It makes me smile because, well, it just means I've a home to look forward to going back to and people I want to see again.

For my little odd Cancerian-homebody self; that just means I've two families to keep an eye on and to love. ^_^
