What are you doing for Christmas

Post by Mr Flibble »

Since it is practically on top of us, what are you doing for christmas, if anything?

I am having lunch with my parents and some family friends, then probably watching the dvds I am geting for christmas, before going to my brother's place for dinner. So pretty much a normal christmas.

My parents are going to New Mexico for my grandmother's funeral a few days after Christmas, and my Aunt, cousin, and one of their friends are coming over, and I'll probably do stuff with them. And I'll be sleeping in the basement the whole time.

Hopefully my family and I will be celebrating good news about my mom's health.

Hah, mine's in my front yard, because I have a Star Wars Tree! :P

Yeah, hanging out at my grandmother's house. Building LEGO's or something while watching A Christmas Story or the SNL marathon on the tube. Same as every year.

I'll be spending the day in the pool, coming out only to have lunch with my family. It's too damn hot to do anything else.

I'll be baking cookies with my GF's sister and her friends and then we'll get fat eating them, or at least we'll try. My high metabolism takes care of the fattening cookies quite nicely. Last year we ate entire gingerbread houses. :D

Family stuff, presents and all that, we're quite relaxed about it all so there's no rush, usually takes us from about 9 till 5 to finish opening presents, then the visiting of friends and exchanges of presents for each other, then comes obligatory feed the entire population of a starving country with the left overs from Christmas dinner, then comes tidying up, a game or two, then sleep. For on Boxing Day cometh the relatives, and alcohol beeth consumed except by those who art charged with driving extended family home, as dictated by the Ayris theory of spatial relativity.

Fairly typical Christmas is to have either a late lunch or an early dinner with close family (because remote family is in Hungary). Unfortunately, since my brother's got a divorce and a spiteful bitch of an ex-wife, this means "close" now means "immediate" family - which means, sadly, I won't get to play with my nephews.

But that's alright - I never fucking liked Christmas anyway. My mother-in-law (well, not anymore - hehehe) used to always get drunk and start abusing most people. Bah. I'm probably going to be enjoying the Christmas presents I bought myself. One bright note, since I fucking hate Christmas now, and since no-one else is particularly enthused either, there's no stupid Christmas tree to set up and take down.

Sorry if this seems all scrooge-like, but this is realistically what my Christmas's are like - I won't be sad to see it leave. I'd rather spend New Year's with my friends, as that's more important to me (not so much the New Year's part; more like the spending time with friends, who are usually busy with family during Christmas).

I'm actually genuinely excited about this Xmas. I get to see my brothers, whom I haven't for almost three years. Our entire(immediate) family is going to all be together for once, which is going to be great. :lol:

One of the things I'm most anticipating is wrestling my cocky little brother Jason. Bastard is a Corporal now in the Military. Claims he's been working out and yadda yadda gonna kick my ass. That bastard is going down! Either I win, it's going to be a tie. Period! 8)

Spend all day Christmas Eve alone with Sir Nitram (if I can keep him away from the computer)

Open our gifts to each other about 8ish.

Christmas Day, drive 50 miles in (predicted) 6in of snow to my mother's house for Xmas dinner with both brothers and their families. Watch the nephews sled down mother's yard. Maybe get home by midnight... although I'm planning to take a change of clothes just in case we get stuck up there.

No drinking, cause my family never believed in that, but more food than you can give away.

Nitram, slightly high on cough syrup: Do you know you're beautiful?
Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.
Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.

Actually, my mom devised up of something she wants us to do. On Christmas day, we're going to drive around with a bunch of envelopes filled with a few bucks and hand them out to the homeless. Since I have no need for gifts or particularly want anything, I agreed to it.. so all my christmas money and brother's is being used for it.
