Post Holiday

[dark_angel1383]

The holidays were relatively stress free this year, which is a vast improvement from previous years. Joe woke me up at what is considered the ass-crack of dawn on my days off (before 9am) by throwing a kitten and Molly the moose cat on my head and chanting 'presents, presents PRESENTS!' until I rolled out of bed, put on my fuzzy pink (shut up)

Personally I'd prefer no gift, to something you grabbed out of the closet, but some people need to give gifts.

Ditto.

Joe's parents sound a little like M's grandparents, who prioritize the number of gifts substantially over what's in them. This year, among other peculiar but well-intended things, they gave me a bar of Avon "Musical Angel Soap" (the angel is playing a trumpet; sadly, the soap itself is not actually musical, which was my first guess, so basically it's a bar of soap).

I'm kind of worried that this, along with a gaudy necklace, indicates a move toward angel-themed gifts. They are big on having gift themes for specific people.

Oh man. I was excited by the prospect of soap that plays music.

I hope they nip that angel theme in the bud. Last year I got random Avon gifts, but Joe's mom doesn't go in for the whole theme thing. Which is awesome.

Faces are definitely more comfortable than any other place on the planet...
