I drank and smoked all day & night at my Mother-In-Law's yesterday. I feel kinda gross like my body is screaming "QUIT TREATING ME LIKE ASS!" This was the first Christmas that Rob and I could afford to buy anyone anything in a long time and, not surprisingly, the first Christmas where we got any real gifts that we could actually open with the enthusiasm and wonder reminiscent of our childhoods. So that was kinda nice, but other than that, it was just another couple of days. Rob says that's because we are old...

Its funny how times like this will really make us, humankind that is, think about family. What exactly is family? What does that word really mean? I know someone who found out through the traditional Christian American Christmas rituals that their "family" aren't the people who will always be there for them and love them no matter what. It seems odd that a day that is meant to bring love and peace to the world can quite contrarily make familial dissent more piognant.

Peace will come if you want it.
