Ah, the Holidays!

Though it seems like only yesterday we were all heading back to school and wishing for Christmas break to come, it is upon us and I fear it is already nearing its end.

Plans? I’ve got none. Christmas Day we’re supposed to be going to my aunt and uncle’s in Kitchener because my cousin and other aunt and uncle will be there, but other than that I can’t honestly say I have anything going on.

See, since I was small, we’ve been going to relatives’ houses for Christmas dinner, and while that’s usually a grand old time (haha- what a joke!), I’ve always wanted the opportunity to stay home for the evening. Especially when I was younger and had all those fun toys to play with! Nowadays, though, I think it’s more me just wanting to experience it. A nice, quiet little dinner…

Don’t get me wrong or take that the wrong way- I love seeing and spending time with family, but I’d also like to stay home and do that.

I remember when I was little I used to wake up at ungodly hours and, in turn, wake my parents and insist that we go check our stockings and look under the tree to see what Santa brought us. They’d tell me to go back to bed, so I would… I didn’t sleep, but I went back to bed. When I figured it was an appropriate time to wake them up again, I did, and then I’d call relatives and they’d come over to watch me open gifts. To this day, I don’t know what sort of pleasure they had in that, but whatever floats your boat.

Enough reminisces…

I’m getting a little annoyed that any spelling mistakes aren’t being corrected right now (as in, the usual Firefox red underline), so if you have found any spelling errors in this post, I apologize. I’m going to go see if I can fix that.

Until we meet again,
