Well... Christmas is over.
Thank. God.
I mean, I've got nothing against the holiday. So don't be like the little kid I babysit for who when I said 'I don't really like Christmas' stated that I must not like Jesus. I've got nothing against Jesus either, though I don't really like the Catholic religion. Just the beurocracy and such.
Well, we went to the pageant mass yesterday. ^_^ That was cute, though it was *packed*, not to mention *loud*. And so my family sat up in the Choir Loft. Note- we were 10 people, my 8 family members and 2 guests. Beth, who is the 9th family member, was in Columbus celebrating Christmas with her husbands family. Now, after that we came home and had dinner, just us. Most of the family then went to my sister's preformance at St. Paul's an Episcopal church she is paid to sing with. I was really tired at that point, and in my family all I need to say is 'I'm tired' and I'm relegated off any and all activites. Especially since if I really am tired? I *look* it.
I didn't pass out during Pageant Mass though, so that was a good thing. Well my brother and I cleaned up the dinner dishes and pots, made short work of it.
Well I just couldn't sleep last night. Not because I was up with you Squall Buchou, just because of my insomnia. Well I was on talking to Buchou and Em-chan and the others till about 2. Then I was planning to sleep but again-insomnia. Followed by my muses. Well after penning down *angst* (because my muses are displeased by the Christmas season) I was ready to go to bed.
And then the spider bit my wrist and crawled across my hand.
I. Hate. Spiders.
Yeeeeeah. Took me while to sleep after that, as I'm sure you can infer. And so I was just dead tired when awoken at 10. Plus I bloody *hate* Christmas. I haven't really had just a good Christmas day for a while. I never feel good. Usually I get migraines, though I used to get massive stomachaches. Which is another thing- holiday food never sits well on my stomach. Blech, stomach aches and such.
Well, bad morning. Migraine starting early. Medicated. I *did* get home-made donuts which cheered me up and Bacon! I don't know why but Bacon! always puts a smile on my face. And yes, I say it exclamation point and all. Then I went back upstairs and tried to sleep. Luckily I did, but after that we were planning to go to visit my Grandmother and play Christmas tunes. I was looking forward to it but the migraine and insomnia the night before made me just say 'I wanna sleep'.
Like stated above- that is all that it takes for my exclusion. Doesn't help my guilt but it means I could get more sleep.
Then I was up for dinner and guests. Gods, 20 people in this house. It isn't a big house. In fact it's a medium sized house but the rooms are small and it's filled with stuff.
Well... my Uncle wore this vest and bow tie my grandfather always used to wear on Christmas.
Yes. The dead one.
....morbid much?
Well... *that* went on forever. Then we went to my cousin's house for Desserts. Luv my cousin but I'm usually pretty 'family'd' out by that point. I preservered and Sami and I have made plans for later in the week. ^_^ Yaaaay. Next I'm usually Dad's excuse to leave and I'd been waiting to go home and play 'Trivial Pursuit Booklovers Edition'. Well I'd been waiting to spring the right time and Dad decides to leave without me. Now after this much family? I'm pretty emotional, usually to the lower end of the spectrum. The 'despair, doom, depression' colors. So yeah.... but Dad being my Father dragged me home. Which did cheer me up.
...kinda lost at TP. Even with my brother joining my team later the Game HATED us! Like all the others got easy questions or questions that *we* knew. And sometimes they got them or they didn't. The killer was when the answer was Beverly Cleary and my brother and I were like "Aaaaaaagh!" because we *knew* and the other 3 on the opposite team *DIDN'T*!!!
~bashes head down~
And then I helped wash the dishes. Because my Mom was gonna do it on her own and uh... no one in this family but me will volunteer to do dishes. No one. Maybe my older sister Marian, but that's about it. So I stormed into the kitchen and started helping out. Then my little sister got pushed into it and was no help on seperating and loading china and silver but got assigned as my dryer for the handwash stuff. We make a fairly good team, unlike her and my sister Tricia. Tricia of course had escaped as soon as she could claiming that we had no need of her help.
...she's just being a *little* bitchy right now.
Sorry for spamming if I did!
