Christmas?
It certainly didnt feel like christmas this year.
This was the first Christmas without my Grandmother so we went down to my grandfathers house on christmas eve. It was pretty fun. My parents went down early and cooked food, and me my brother pat and his girlfriend rachael went down slightly later. M grandfather was in good spirits despite everything. My aunt and her family decided that they couldnt spend the day with us, and went to NYC. I have nothing good to say about them, so I wont say anything. On the drive back, i slept and listened to the Allman Brothers. Alex: on the way down i woke up to Mountain Jam on Eat a Peach. Thought you'd appreciate that.
Then later alex and i went to chill with marissy et al. and then i went to stephanies house.
Stephanies house + tons of her relatives = a nervous mike...
And then i went home and chilled with my parents.
Christmas morning we woke up to go to church, and found that there wasnt one at the time that we thought there would be, so we went home, exchanged gifts, and went out to west springfield and went to mass there where i experience the most efficient catholic mass in History. Christmas Day mass. the readings and sermon were completely done in 15 minutes. 15 minutes flat!!! to all you catholics out there, you know how crazy fast that is. And the entire service was done in 35 Minutes, and there was music. I was just fucking astonished.
And then we went to my grandparents house. it just seemed so empty. To those of you who dont know, my uncle kevin is very sick with cancer, and he decided not to come to christmas this year. My cousins were there, but it felt so empty. It is really too bad i didnt get to see him, i get to see my cousins 1-3 times a year, and my uncle about the same but it doesnt look good. His health is really deteriorating fast. I just wasnt the same.
Christmas just felt so empty this year. Like it lost a whole lot of meaning for me.
But other than its empty feeling, it was enjoyable.
