I love having a day off. It's so nice to sleep in and see The Girl during daylight. She's pretty cute. Christmas is also good, in case no one decided. It's the time (or at least according to the ghosts of Christmas from Dickens) that it is socially acceptable and expected for people ot act and behave as Christians. I have found this more absent the older I get, but the idea is there. It's also the major source of Tradition (the good kind) in my family. Tonight I will stay at my parents house not to avoid Bob, but rather to stay with my 2 brothers on last time on Christmas Eve (since next year I will have manifested my other nickname and will not anymore share a room with my brothers). If your reading this, you probably either go to church with me or are a close friend, so to you I say Merry Christmas. I have really appreciated getting to be part of the church family at Hebron and (aside from Sealing the Deal of course) I count it as my greatest blessing this year. So tomorrow I'm set to see my family and my new family to eat and exchange gifts and stories. I can't wait!
