Christmas... eh...
Christmas this year was...a very LOVELY day, to say the least.
My mother created some drama when she failed to inform us that she wanted to have DINNER with us. She'd asked us to be there around noon or one. So we thought lunch. No, she wanted the whole day with us. So plans between families clashed. Robin and I went over there for a few hours, then I drove her home and went back to eat dinner with my mom.
I'm not happy about this. This is the second year in a row in which my mother (though it might very well be due to Terry...) has ruined or changed plans at the last possible half-second.
So...yeah...
But it got even better about ten minutes ago. I just found out that one of my good friends was in a bad accident on Monday. She's been unconscious since, and didn't wake up until today. She has a long list of injuries, and her truck was so badly totaled, I hear, that cops on the scene expected a dead body.
This is my Christmas miracle. Simply that she's alive. But that's been one of the few ups today. I hate being this stressed on Christmas.
Thanks, mom.
So, I'm going to go and hope that I can hear from my friend soon, and try to wind down. Maybe I'll get to play some Mario Kart or Brawl tonight.
I need it.
