My Christmas

I had a very good Christmas, except for one thing: my mom is psychotic. It's really weird, like a month ago I was getting ready to write a post about how my mom is getting less crazy all the time, and then she suddenly turns into a screaming, nagging bag o' crazy all the time. I think it must be one of her medications, I mean she's on like a billion, so surely either one of them doesn't suit her or some of them are reacting badly. I mean seriously, her falling off the deep end and flying into occasional rages for no apparent reason were really the only mar in the day. I even made Christmas dinner so that she wouldn't have to! Aren't I a saint? :) I was not as hard as I have been led to expect. The hardest part was getting everything into the oven so that it would all be hot at the same time when there was actually far too much to actually fit in the oven. And then my mom was all crazy during the meal and actually upset my dad so much he left the table, so that was fun. All we really needed was liquor and the good times would've been complete! After dinner we played Scene it! For a while and that was good times. What? You want to know what I got? Ok, ok, stop bugging me, I'll tell you!

Tons of candy: we exchange names and do stockings for each other specifically so we'll get candy. In addition to that, mom decided for some reason and despite the fact that all of us are trying to lose weight (or at least watching it) to buy us mass quantities of candy as presents! So all together, I got; a box of Ferrero Rocher, a bag of Lindor truffles, a bag of mint Kit Kat minis, and a box of Toffifay. Of course, at work our landlord brought us a big can of Godiva dark chocolate covered preztels which kick ass, so my boss sent a big bag of those home with me. Yowza, that's a lot of chocolate.

Hairclips: these were in my stocking. One set of two silver zig zaggy ones with little diamondy stone on them, and one large silver filigree butterfly clip. They are very pretty.

Johnny Cash: the two Johnny Cash CD's I had on my wish list. The one with his 16 biggest hits, and the one with him singing Hurt and other songs that he didn't write. Awesome! Of course, my dad immediately appropriated them and have had them in him bedroom CD player every since.

A modern rock compendium: this is 4 CD's with 80's music! Finally! I can listen to Der Kommissar anytime I want to!

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season 2: it's full of vampire slaying goodness!

Your's, Mine, and Our's: on DVD. Yeah, man. Funny funny stuff.

Uh. . .I think that's it, kids. So, good stuff, good times, good people. Even the crazy ones. We even watched White Christmas at the end of the night. Oh yeah, full of Bing Crosby goodness.
