Well, Christmas eve. I'm over at my parents' tonight. Dad's passed out, go figure. It's something that I've gotten used to because he's generally sober for a few days before Thanksgiving, then goes off the wagon and drinks nonstop until March. It's been this way since I can remember. Ah well. So Mom, Nicole and I will try and sneak out of the house tonight to go have dinner at the Chili Pepper, and that's that.
I came home from WY this morning. I was going to come home Sunday, but Laramie had a storm and I didn't want to leave and then last night, Cheyenne got a storm and I was having too much fun with Terry and his parents, so I stayed up there a total of 5 days. It was a lot of fun, but Laramie reminded me of Deliverance. A little unnerving, if you ask me. And cows....lots of cows. Although the trashed-out cars on everyone's property might outnumber the cows, but they're still getting back to me on that. After getting home, I went out to breakfast with Anjelee and Candace and Sara to exchange gifts. I got framed picture of what my name means, and then a very cool quote by Ralph Waldo Emmerson from Anjelee. Candace gave me a foot massager and a bunch of prints of wolves that I'm going to put up around my cube and my room. I then went out to lunch with Janell, Roxxy and my sister. Janell gave me a crystal stand for my blue sparkley candle ball and Roxxy's gift was the signed poster from Dance of the Vampires.
I'm really happy that I could get together with everyone today and I love all my gifts!
holidays,
dad
