ho-ho-hum
so Christmas came and went. where did it find me? in the office, bearing with a fucked-up system and sleeping on my calls. partying the night before did not do me any favors, just turned me into a narcoleptic. it was fun to greet the people around me, though. and everyone was sincere about it. most of us were probably coming to terms with the fact that we were stuck at work on the most solemn evening of the year.
i had only one thought in my mind: won't these Americans ever stop calling 411??? for godssakes...
and yes, i sent out text messages that promoted world peace. NO, i'm not trying to pull a beauty pageant thing here. i'm just wondering why the human race never experienced it. are we really too "stupid" for it? one annoying thing, though.. a couple of people actually sent the message back to me! so NO, that wasn't a forward, you lazy asses.
anyway, how was YOUR Christmas, kiddies? here's hoping it was better and far less confing than mine.

i had a chance to see the painter on the morning of the 24th, at 6 am. he kind of saved me post-party, actually. the screwed-up situation i was in was therefore greatly improved. hallelujah, a place to crash in! "merry Christmas", we greeted each other when we woke up 4 hours later. what followed was our usual say-anything conversation and a tickle-match that i initiated. it was the "pin each other to the ground and don't stop until you're both fighting for air" variety. loads of fun. my pride deflated upon realizing that i waslosing to him and so i cried out, "godammit, for an old man you have a lot of energy!" i went home with bruises on my arm and a smile on my face.
i'm going to miss him. these "therapy sessions" i've been having with him have come to an end, if not an indefinite hiatus.
merry christmas indeed. when was the last time YOU were tickled?

anyway. new year's is practically a few breaths away and it's time to make up lists again. the things we learned, the things we hope to quit and the things we'll set our eyes on.
i'm not sure which list i'm going to start first, but one thing's for sure, i want to be at venezia for their new year party.
some things will never change.
and i'm sure as hell i won't be texting a certain neighbor of mine when the fireworks start going off. i'd sooner lose my hands to a row of "sinturon ni hudas". i can't believe it's been almost a year since i made a TOTAL ASS (to end all my TOTAL ASS stories) out of myself. i can't believe it's been almost a year since *a couple of other things*.
so yeah, merry Christmas to you too. you know who you are.
