Christmas shouldn't be stressful!!!

Dec 22, 2008 23:47

So I'm expected to go over to Mike's house for Christmas/Christmas Eve ... I'm not sure which, but I think it's Christmas. Which is totally legit, especially since he's coming over here for Christmas Eve. But I'm really, really stressed out about it. And Christmas shouldn't be stressful! Christmas is the day where no one in my family gets out of their pajamas (or in my case, I shower then change into clean pajamas ... I'm not anal though, I swear) and we open presents and eat comfort food and play boardgames and don't leave the house. And now not only does all that have to be changed so that I can go to Mike's, I have to be social and likable and friendly, and I am none of those things. Ok, maybe that's a bit harsh, as I do hope I'm at least moderately likeable. But I don't want to be shy and awkward around his family ... I want them to like me and not be like "wow, she's boring and socially inept."

So yeah ... I'm really stressing out over this and I don't know why. I'm literally dreading it. There's probably something wrong with me.

Anyway, I'm (pretty much) over the stomach flu, thank God. Tomorrow my family, Mike, Scott and I are going to see the Radio City Christmas Show and out to dinner, and do other Christmasy things like see the tree and window displays and such, so I'm pretty excited. But before I do that I need to go shopping for Christmas presents because I'm a failure and haven't yet ... Sigh.
