Like Lily, I'm not a social person, because I'm not a big fan of, you know, people. But Christmas is such a fun time I'm willing to look past that. I have a few Christmas parties - some with friends and some with family. I get to see my family from my mom's side, which is very rare. They are much normalizer than my dad's side of the family, but to be honest, less fun. I also like visiting my family in the mountains.
My favorite relatives tend to be the old men, as opposed to the women. Me and my dad call them the "hens", because all they do is get together and talk about stupid things...
"Cluck cluck cluck... I can't believe she did that... cluck."
"I know right ... cluck... and she was pregnant, too!... cluck, cluck."
Meanwhile, during holiday events, the men tend to kick back in front of the TV with a beer. My dream (okay without the alcohol). I don't blame them. It is also interesting how even though some of them don't see each other for whole years, they don't even need to communicate...
"*Grunt* Who's playing?"
"The Forty-niners and the Seahawks *grunt*."
"*Grunt* See you next year. *grunt*"
"Bye. *grunt*"
I also loving going to parties with friends. A lot of people I know have birthdays around this time, which basically turns into a big Christmas-Birthday mash-up, and it's wonderful.
So whatever event you're going to this Christmas season, I hope you have fun!! Unless it's Hanukkah. Still have fun, but maybe you should consider converting.
27 Days,
