Going, going, gone...
Well, it’s officially over. Thank goodness. Christmas Eve was horrible. Lots of crying, followed by numbness, followed by more crying. Awful cycle. Christmas day was better, thanks in large part to silentloki. Can honestly say that I’ve never started off a Christmas morning by dancing around the house by myself in my nightie with Aerosmith blaring full blast. Was a nice change of pace. Also from Mon (have I mentioned recently that I love her to death?), the worst movie ever made. Yeah!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! Anybody have a rough idea how many times you can repeat the same 11 seconds of a movie before becoming a zombified freak? I do. Suprises for the closest guess.
Other notable gifts: a new stereo/cd player for the car. I’ve needed wanted one for so long. Also, an absolutely gorgeous custom-made lamp by my lil sis, the artist. Thank you, herbie17! I love it & you, too!! But perhaps the most interesting gift was one from my Dad. He’s so much more comfortable with his Christianity than I am anymore & I found a book called ‘Finding God in The Lord of the Rings’. It seemed to be a perfect way for us to share that connection. What a surprise it was when I started opening a gift from him and realized he had gotten me the same book. We opened them together. Kinda nice Christmas moment.
But now it’s over & time to move on to just normal everyday sucky life. Won’t have to tolerate everybody else’s “holiday spirit” with a grain of salt anymore…. Yippee!!!
Love everybody lots & lots. Here’s to a great 2003 for everyone!! Cheers…
…it’s getting hard to be someone, but it all works out
it doesn’t matter much to me…
