Christmas was rather different from how it normally goes around here. I'm still deciding whether or not this is good or not.

I woke up slightly irritated around 6 for some unknown reason. I'm not sure if I was irritated because of the early hour I woke up at or at the dream I was having, but either way, I went back to sleep. Then at 7, my dad tackled me telling me to wake up. So we opened presents, and my mom didn't feel like cooking the big breakfast we usually have, so I ate Cinnamon Toast Crunch. After that, I got my parents and Aunt Lorianne to play DDR. That provided me with some early morning amusement.

Sometime later, I went upstairs to go online. Jess came on shortly after and we talked. She asked if I could go over her house, and I reminded her I live with a Christian family therefore I celebrate Christmas. After talking for a bit, we decided that she should come up here and celebrate Christmas for the first time [she's Jewish, and sadly her first Christmas was spent with my family =P].

I sign off and take a shower, blah blah blah. My grammy arrives, and I say hi and such. As I'm pacing around upstairs attempting to untangle my hair, I hear an arguement downstairs. Twas between my grammy and Aunt Lorianne. All I heard was:
A.L. [who is Anne's sister]; Anne was too baptised!
G. [who is Anne's mom]; No, she wasn't.
A.L.; She was too. She's in heaven. Unbaptised people go to hell.
G.; That doesn't matter. Its how you live life. In the end He judges us, not you!.
Then Aunt Lorianne leaves.

Um, happy holidays? Once they cool down a bit [erm, not really; just enough to talk honestly] Aunt Lorianne decides she's leaving because she doesn't want to be here. She gets all her things and leaves. There's a talk about it between Grammy and Mom, but I don't pay attention because family drama and the fact my aunt Anne isn't here with us this Christmas aren't things I want to dwell on.

Shortly after that fiasco, Jess comes. She taught me We Don't Need No Education by Pink Floyd on the guitar. That made me a happy kitten. We were about to leave for a walk, but oh lucky me, my grandmother and great-grandmother showed up. I was really hoping I could pull off avoiding my grandmother. I have no such luck, so we greet them and such then leave. We catch up on our walk.

We get back and play guitar. Family comes. From there on out, its pretty normal; talk, eating, the usual late guests, whatever. Then we get a call from my aunt Maryanne. She's not coming. Go figure. She promised she'd show, and she calls saying Oh it just hurts too bad to go. Yeah that excuse gets older as I do. Whatever. We'd just like to see her sometimes, ya know?

By 9, everyone is gone, except Jessie [my cousin], Geoff, and Grammy. We were playing trivial pursuit, having a few drinks, laughing, telling stories; making history if you will. My mom was completely smashed which provided us with many laughs as she tried to read the questions. Towards the end of the game she left. She got sick and went to bed. Jessie, Geoff, and I won the game w00t! We then played Texas Hold 'em, using m&m's as chips. No one went out because I got a huge bag for Christmas and everyone kept giving the loser more. It was great =D

Grammy and Dad went to bed around 2. So Jessie, Geoff, and I had the downstairs to ourselves. We surfed around on TV to see if anything was on, and 30 or so minutes Space Jam would be on so we set a reminder for that. They needed their stuff from the car so we ran outside in the sub-zero tempteratures to get crap. It felt really good because my house was 80+ degrees. Shortly after Space Jam came on, I went to sleep.

Next morning [yesterday], everyone was hung over, so we watched football for practically the whole day. I slept. Sometime that night, my mom and I went to see Ocean's 12 which rocked. Yep that's about it for Sunday.

And today was spent idolising around the house playing DDR and doing laundry. There was an inch or 2 of snow on the ground, and I wanted to go out badly, but I was too lazy/tired to do so. I had one of the greatest conversations with David. I miss him so much. Once his ass leaves Mass., I hope I get to see him.

Shiit this update is long enough. I'm waay too tired to keep going lol. Its only 11 o.O Oh well. Adios everyone.
