CHRISTMASTIME!

(Blah da da blah, da blah)


I’m currently sitting in a computer chair in my parent’s house up in Alaska, enjoying a nice, relaxing time home for the holidays with family. Most of my friends have moved on out of AK, though there are a few here and there that I like to catch up with when I can, but I’m mostly here for family. Every year we say that this is likely to be the last year that we can get everyone in the family together for Christmas, but every year so far we have been wrong. So here I am, enjoying family time and eating delicious Christmas food. (I’m making Krub tonight).

A brief catalog of Christmas presents. I got a bunch of Terry Pratchett books, some Alton Brown DVDs, plenty of awesome cooking gear, and a neat game that involves freakin’ laser breams! It looks crazy neat and is a lot of fun to play.

My favorite presents to other people: J(5) got my mother a Snapfish photobook with a bunch of pictures of us together. It’s really neat. We have one too, and it’s a great thing to fawn over when I’m missing her. (She’s in Florida for Christmas with her family.) Most awesome prize award, though, goes to Dad, for buying Mom a freakin’ car. I got to help him drive it home, and it’s a pretty fun ride. Grats to both of them. Dad got some ridiculously cool tool-things from mom, too, including the worlds most involved tool belt. It looks awesome, though.

Miss my girl tons and bunches (Love you!) but I get to see her pretty darn soon and then we have a few days free before we have to go to work. There will be a great deal of cuddling, let me tell you. This is the longest we’ve been apart since she left for a month to trek through South America. A week and a half! How tragic! Well what do you want from us? We’re cuddlebugs.

We have a very briefly white Christmas here, but it’s been just barely over freezing for a couple of days now and all the snow is slowly deteriorating from pretty, fluffy white mounds to ugly, wet, gray lumps. My least favorite weather for winter, but pretty much the most common one for December. It’s Juneau, though, so it’s hardly a surprise.

Here, so I remember it, is a list of things I want to do when I get back to CA.

1) Spundae
2) Restaurant Supply Store
3) Wii shopping (good luck, us!)
4) Bake Bread
5) CUDDLE!
6) Make some more Japan plans
7) So shopping for…neat stuff

Well, that’s about everything I can think of to write, I’m not feeling particularly creative at the moment. I’ll come back and wow y’all later. This one was pretty boring.
