Christmas break=boring. At least it does when you lack friends in the zip code you're in. Mark has pretty much been working 24/7 so I've spent some quality time with the family (aka I've cleaned the house alot) I went Christmas shopping and as usual got really pissed off. I hate the fact that Christmas equals pressure to buy gifts for the people you care about. I don't like the whole forced to say "I love you" through material items concept, I'd much rather just straight up say I love you to the people I care about and buy them something randomly in the year b/c I want to not because I have to. Due to lack of funds the xmas list got cut to only people I would have no problem saying I love you too, and do so on a regular basis. It just disgusts me to see people (and myself) scurring around buying random crap for people when most people don't even give a shit about the point of this holiday. At this point in time the best gift is that I'm alive and have people that love me, and honestly that's satisfying for me, and I really wished that that was enough for everybody. At least then our addiction to material items would lessen somewhat.
Other than anger towards the holidays (xmass carols must die) not a whole bunch has gone down. Kevin got his throat sliced and diced (tounsels removed) so currently we're all taking care of him. Maybe something will happen this weekend.
