I'm pooping right now.

Luckily, it isn't miso-style cha-cha-cha.

I haven't talked to my mom in about a month. I need to call her today to stop through and drop off a gc for my niece that she is raising.

I do not want to call her. I wish I could just skip it without my conscience eating away at me. She will inevitably invite us to my stepdad's parents house tomorrow. Not feeling it. Then cue more guilty conscience for declining.

This very moment!

Thanks for the app, Patrick Clinger. GBCN errrrrrywhere.

I have nothing to do today so I am playing Angry Birds. I almost wish I didn't realize last year I could play on my work computer through chrome.

[sherbanator]

I just got out of bed.

[lightbulbsun]

Today is going soooo slow. I've finished everything I had to do today and I'm just sitting here. I have seen 7 people in my office (out of 150). I'll probably end up leaving at 4.

The tour that H and I were planning to take for our anniversary this year is already booked on the date we were planning for There are still some openings, but none of them will actually be during our anniversary. I know it doesn't really matter, but I'm still a little bummed.

My uncle handed me 3 cards yesterday. One for me, my mother, and my sister and told me not to open them until he left. So, I kept them in my purse until today and then gave them to my sister and my mother, then opened them.

Each had a hundred in them and said "Buy yourself something nice. Love, Grandma."
Except mine said "Dear cookie puss" and my sister's said "Dear Dolly Dimple," which is what she used to call us.

My sister and I sat there and cried. Merry Christmas, Grandma. I hope you're dancing on a table somewhere up in heaven.

My randoms:

This day is seriously dragging!! Why can't it be 4:00?! I have so much to do and just want to get started.

I'm so excited about Christmas and can't wait to see the looks on the girls faces tomorrow morning. I think Santa did good this year.

I want salty french fries for dinner!!

That's so sweet. I even teared up.

I told H that I wanted to nap when we got home from work. I'm not napping. I just need an hour or two alone. Tonight we have two parties, tomorrow we have two Christmases and Wed is going to be filled with people, too. I just need time to be me.

[hisno1girl]

Random: I'm watching Mexican telenovelas from the late 80s on YouTube. They are so totes awesome.

Vent: My sisters are bugging me about what time we're going to my parents tomorrow. I have my daughter and SS coming here tomorrow. I may not get to my parents house tomorrow. They (my parents) do not care at all if we go there because they understand that I have a family of my own. It's been like this for years but this year they will not leave me alone about it.

Whatever: I've had the worst smelling farts for the past two days, like I've been eating broccoli, onions and beer.

That is so sweet, she must have been an awesome grandma.

I'm beginning to seriously think H is narcoleptic. He falls asleep constantly. He just had a full work up by his doctor, no health concerns, but it doesn't stop the overwhelming urge to shake him or jump on the bed while yelling "dammit wake your ass up."

Does he snore? My H used to do this before he was diagnosed with pretty severe sleep apnea. It's night and day better since he got his CPAP. He had to bring it up with his dr, it was never addressed during physicals or normal workups. I feel your pain

i was going to ask this too. my H used to sleep all the times. bc he was never getting good, real sleep. CPAP has been life changing.

[alzi]

can they treat narcolepsy? that does sound scary.

[caitlinbree]

For Christmas, my mom gave me a nice tool box, and my brother got a sewing machine and all sorts of sewing accessories (which is exactly what he asked for). When we commented on how funny it was that we are bucking traditional gender roles, my lesbian listen sister loudly proclaimed "And neither of you are even the gay kid!"

LOL. I :heart: my family.

H never did get around to buying Christmas gifts for his family (only 3, MIL, FIL, and SIL). I feel kinda bad about it, but fuck it. I gave him 2+ months warning that he needed to do it himself this year.

[sugarplum]

H isn't going to wrap any of my presents that my parents and sister had sent here. I wrapped all the presents for him.

H snoring is out of fucking control and I'm pretty sure he has sleep apnea and he won't talk to his doctor about it. I've been begging for years. I had a dream last night that I woke up to him dead.

[peachykate]

DH wants to wrap all of Jax's presents and I want to hulk smash things. Santa doesn't wrap presents, we haven't wrapped presents the past two years.

WTF. He is really PASSIONATE about this all of the sudden. I told him that we could wrap them as long as they are all taken out, assembled, and then wrapped. He seems ok with this.

[nsl]

MIL is having a really rough Christmas and will probably be divorcing her husband of 15 years shortly. We just found out yesterday. H is deeply ambivalent and playing the avoidance game whenever I bring up the idea that he should take some vacation days to fly up and help her move. I think he's just fed up with her poor life choices.

[Deleted]

I'm completely overwhelmed. I have a bazillion people coming over in 24 hours and I feel like I have done NOTHING even though I've been working my ass off all day. I just want to drink, but alas, there is a fetus chillin in my ute.

[flex]

I'm being a lazy bum today. I got up early to do a blood draw. I'm coming down with a cold or something, so luckily the doc office had those paper masks so I put one on while I was waiting in the lobby so I didn't infect anyone.

Now I'm at home on the couch feeling sniffly. I was going to tidy up around the house and take down my little tabletop tree (it's a crispy critter already) this morning, but maybe I'll have the energy to do it this afternoon.

[sewpinkgal]

We typically open gifts with my side of the family on Christmas Eve, but had to move it to last night due to my brother's work schedule.

The hit gifts for J? The Fisher Price Little People Zoo and what he has in this picture - a Costco water bottle filled with pony beads with ribbon tied on top. Cheesy homemade gifts ftw!

[lola]

We are having the most awkward Christmas ever with my H's family.
