it's the hap-happiest time of the year....

So, merry xmas ever everyone! it's so wierd, it doesn't even seem like xmas this year. My mom and Dale are watching A Christmas Story in the other room. It's a great movie, a classic, really funny (and Catherine I always think of you when he says, "Randy lay there like a slug, it was his only defense.") But I just didn't feel like watching it and I was falling asleep and I just wanted to be alone for awhile. Anyway, I really hope everyone has a good Christmas, for those who celebrate it, and for those who don't, I hope you have a nice day anyway.
Last night I had a dream that I was being attacked by a garden gnome and he was throwing things at me. It was actually pretty scary. Then I had a dream that I was pregnant and terrified.
This morning I went out with Colleen for a little bit. We ran to the Gap clearance outlet so she could do some last minute shopping for her boyfriend Joe. I swear, she has the pickiest fucking boyfriend on the planet. She was trying to pick out a nice outfit for him, and I kept pointing out nice, simple things, ya know, normal nice guy clothes and EVERYTHING I picked out she said, "No, he wouldn't wear that" or "he wouldn't like that" or she would just look at it and laugh, or she would find something and be like, "oh that would look so good on him, but...he wouldn't wear it." I was like, "Ya know what? Fuck it. At least you are buying him something, so tough titties if he doesn't like it. He should wear it anyway, even if it's only when he's around you, because YOU bought it for him." I felt bad for her. She finally did decide on a nice Banana Republic outfit for him. She says all he'll wear is black Harley Davidson shirts and jeans. Yeah. It's time for an update. Or least some fucking khakis. Or something that buttons down. Or maybe even some color. Sheesh. I'm glad I have a boyfriend who would even wear shirt that says "asshole" on it if I bought it for him. Seriously I have a very appreciative man. Not that I would ever buy him a shirt that says "asshole" on it. That's so...unfitting.
Then we stopped at the grocery store and there was this retarded kid on a leash who kept bumping into me and hitting me with a fly swatter. I kind of felt bad for him. I mean, I can't imagine being on a leash. We also saw a guy who graduated from her school last year. He looked like he just woke up. Actually, I remember her saying that someone had asked him what he was going to do after he graduated and he said, "I don't know..sleep." Well, looks like he's doing a pretty good job with his ambitions.
So other than that I really didn't do anything exept call Katey-poo and wrap my mom's xmas present. I got her the movie Calandar Girls. She really likes that movie. It was a bit creepy if you ask me. But a cute movie to watch with your girlfriends when you're 50 and lonely and want to laugh at each other's bodies sagging and falling apart and still manage to feel sexy.

Also, thank you all for your encouragment and support from my little episode the other day. It's good to know people care, even if I don't actually KNOW some of you, I really appreciate it. So, thank you. I've been doing fairly well since yesterday.

Happy Holidays! <3
