And My Childhood Walks Away

[rusty_time_bomb]

So im bored on Christmas. Not sure what to do really. Rents woke me up extremely early today to open gifts. Early is 11 o'clock by the way. We opened gifts for like ten minutes and then just ate breakfast and went our seperate ways. Christmas is starting to be kind of sad around here. No one is dead or anything, it just seems like its one of those times where we do the same thing every year, but with no surprises. My parents ask me what I want, and I ask them what they want. We get the stuff that is wanted, wrap it, and then give it. Its never anything super exciting or something we couldnt have bought on our own. Half the time my parents go out looking for their "own" gifts. And every year while I open my ornament, chocolate box, a gift thats always the same as my brothers (this year a nerf gun), a car calender, and then the one gift thats not the same as always, my parents say..."Ya I know we dont do much for Christmas." Nothing just seems to be how it used to. Am I getting to old for the holiday? Am I getting to old to be surprised anymore? It just seems....lame.

Best thing about this day though? Its one day closer to Scottie coming down.

God I love her.
