Today was ok. My brothers and I went up to my dad's place for a little while, to open our presents.
I got some nice stuff, but I also got one of those 'What would make anyone think I would want this' presents. It was from my step-grandmother, and it was a light pink sweatshirt with an angel on it, and the words "Heaven Sent". Seriously, it looks like something a 4 year-old would wear. I appreciate the effort, but what would make her think I would want something like that?
Then we came over to my mom's place, and one of my brothers left for work before we ate. So me, my mom, and my other brother ate dinner, which was great.
Then we opened our presents. My mom liked the candle holder I gave her. One of my brothers gave me some cds, and the other gave me some books. One is a book of Pablo Neruda poems, and the other is a Gabriel Garcia Marquez book. My brothers always get me such good presents.
My mom gave me some perfume, socks, this little glass with a V on it, pajamas, and this little notebook where you write down books you want to read, and your favorite passages from books.
One of my brothers also set up my iPod for me, and put a bunch of good music on it. The little earphones just feel funny in my right ear, because of my piercing.
Then my mom and I went to see "The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou", which was good. As we were leaving the theatre, I saw this guy that I went to school with, and always had a crush on. I gave him one of those "I am saying hi to you with this head nod since actually saying hello would be weird" head nods. He didn't even acknowlege me at all. I at least expected a head nod, but no. And its not as though this guy and I were strangers. We had a couple classes together, and he has come into Arbys a coule times, and we've said hi to each other. So I can't really figure that out.
But I am a little better today. I sent Max an email last night, and he sent me one back. So that made me feel good.
