Christmas #2, 2007
Yesterday was our second Christmas. =D; The one with the extended family, at Uncle Len's place. Man, I was running on two hours sleep in two days and kept falling asleep and stuff. xD;
We all hung out and caught up for a couple hours, and then had dinner. The turkey was excellent and the stuffing was ZOMG!awesome, but Clare put bacon on the turkey to keep it moist so I had to take gravol a few minutes before I ate because I'm allergic to pork. Oh well, it was still yummy. lol.
Then we did presents, and I got $80 and two movies (Ratatouille and Evan Almighty) from Grandma, and in the round-about game we play I got a whole bunch of rechargable batteries and a recharger, which is AWESOME because I needed them for taking my camera to Otakon in the summer. :3 Grandma also gave me my birthday gift, which was a $100 gift card to Zellers. YEY.
Mom, Lee and I didn't stay there really late because I was fading fast, but we hung around for a while longer to have dessert (I didn't have much because I wasn't feeling well for various reasons, but I brought a whole bunch of stuff home XD;); Grandma always makes these lemon bars that everyone loves, and this year she made pecan pie bars too that are just to DIE FOR. <33
Oh, haha, I brought Tetsuya with me to show him off to Grandma, and when they found out he was anatomically correct, her and both my aunts insisted on taking his pants off, and then checking to make sure he had nipples too. The poor guy had no dignity for the whole night. XD;;
As a side note to that, Aunt Brenda thought he was a Final Fantasy character until I explained about him. <3
Anyway, when we left I zoned out in the car on the way home (and Tet-chan hid in the bag because he really didn't want to talk to anyone anymore), and called Dad when I got home to say Merry Christmas.
Then I slept for... almost 20 hours. ^_^;
Then I got on AIM to chat with people, and watched Evan Almighty and Ratatouille on my PS2, and now I'm on to The Pursuit of Happyness.
I'm so glad the PS2 can play movies. I had to unplug my DVD player to hook it up, and this way I don't have to be constantly unplugging stuff and plugging it back in. If I want to watch a DVD I just use the PS2 and be done with it... though that makes my DVD player kind of pointless. I might pack it up and put it away so it's not just there taking up space... or something. Hmm.
