Christmas Day...
Sunday, December 25
Woke up around 7:40. The alarm was set for 8:15. I hate when that happens. I'm so used to waking up at a set time that it's hard to sleep in anymore.
Turned on the lights to the tree, set up a nice playlist of holiday songs on the computer, and proceeded to open gifts with the girlfriend. Got some nice swag. It's pretty easy to buy for a Superman fan I suppose.
My girlfriend's parents came over and we all exchanged gifts. After their visit we left for her extended family's Christmas gathering. I enjoy being around them, they've tried hard to make me feel welcome. I got a gift certificate and ate lots of food. They always cook a lot of good stuff.
Left after a few hours to make the trip into the country where we meet up with my Mom at my Grandparents house. All the family was out there, and repeated what I had done earlier: gifts and food. Spent a lot of time out there, but I don't remember some of it cause I crashed on the couch for a while. I was dead tired.
Came home, Christmas was over. Or was it? I was once again visited by (2 out of the 3) spirits from the night before, and once again had a fun time... playing Trivia Pursuit DVD Pop Culture 2 (one of my gifts to my girlfriend). Have you ever played with four people? Damn that game takes forever for someone to win... like Monopoly.
Good times.
