I thought about blogging yesterday, but I guess I forgot in the end. Christmas day was blissful- it was cool and cloudy, and I had the entire day off after working 6 days straight. Nobody woke me early in the morning- in fact I was the first in the entire house to be up... and I got up at 9am. I half expected my sister to jump at me at 7am with all her presents, but that happened 3 hours later than expected so everything was okay.
We went out for a "family BBQ" which was surprisingly not-very-painful. I didn't think it was BBQ weather, but it didn't rain on us. I had a lot of food, then sat around being bored because there's not much to do at a BBQ. Thankfully the whole thing only lasted 3 hours, and nobody said anything insulting to me the entire time.
When we got home I helped set up a tent in our backyard. I think the tent was only ever used once before, when we went camping 10 years ago. Anyway the thing still looked new, and I set it up because my sister said she wanted to go camping. Because I don't actually like going camping for reals, I set it up for her in the backyard. Luckily for me she's easily satisfied, and so far has spent 2 night sleeping in that tent. Hopefully she'll get bored soon, because it looks awfully cold out there.
Then I spent the entire afternoon and evening playing cards with my mom. I know it sounds really lame, but I like playing cards so whatever. Also mom has decent card etiquette, so she doesn't randomly spout rude things when you make a bad move, and doesn't gloat over a move she made 2 matches ago. Anyway, Christmas day was surprisingly good, and nothing went wrong the entire day to spoil it.
Happy holidays.
