I don't know about you guys, but my Christmas was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll go through Christmas Eve and Day event by event:
Christmas Eve:
Chilled untill about 5:30, then went to this little Italian restaruant in Newington center, where I met the rest of my family. Of course, as soon as we saw Veal on the menu, me and Jeff and Glenn started making our usual "Milk fed veal" jokes...LOL!! We're psycho. Then after dinner, we went back to my aunt's house. My grandma had the package that my aunt from Pennsylvania sent so we tore into that to get our presents out of it. hehe! Me and Jeff of course went straight to popping the bubble wrap and annoyed everyone. hehe! ;).
It was like 2 thousand degrees in that house! someone took the liberty of putting a fire in the fireplace when it was about 50 degrees outside!!!!!! Ugh!!! LOL. Anyways, heres what I got: A new mouse for my computer that doesn't ahve a ball on the bottom, it has a lazer instead, Pirates of the Caribbean on DVD, a gift card to Old Navy, a sweater, a scarf, 2 ski bands, and 2 pairs of gloves. (I think thats it). My baby cousin got everything!!!! He got more presents that night than I ever got on all the Christmas's combined!!!!!! Lucky kid. He's only one year old! What was wierd about this Christmas was that everyone seemed to give everyone pictures. It was insane how many pictures we had. Okay, so then we went home and went to bed. After hauling all that stuff in my room, it was a MESS! crazy if you ask me.
Christmas Day:
Woke up at about 8 (yeah, it was painful) and met my dad in the livingroom to open our presents. My dad opend the ones that I got him and then we went in the basement so he could give me my present. Guess what it was?!?!?!?!! A POOL TABLE!!!!!!!!!!! WEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's soooooooo awesome!!!!!!! My dad told me that after I went to bed, he went downstairs and was up till about 3 in the morning setting it up. It's sooooo cool. we played a quick game, but it didn't work out too well cuz it wasn't balanced. Then I called my mom and went over her hosue to open my presents tehre. I got A lot of stuff! a lot of little stocking stuffers, but I got some big stuff too. Pajamas, JCPenny and Best Buy giftcards, a Dilbert day-by-day calendar, and the Best prestent of all, A whole CASE of Dilbert mints!!!!!!!!! Doesn't seem like that big of a deal, but I LOVE Dilbert mints and I haven't been able to find them anywhere since Target stopped selling them. (My mom got them on Amazon). I had like a brunch like meal at my mom's, then I came home again and hauled yet more gifts up to my room and dumpped them all on my bed. MESS, complete mess!. Then my mom brought me to my Grandma's house where i met my dad, Jenn, Ellen (my aunt) And Jeff. Jenn and Jeff came a little latter. We had dinner (my dad made stuffed cabage. YUM!!! I've been waiting three years for him to make that again and finally he did!) Then after dinner we watched TV for a while, then Jenn busts out with this huge box of Jelly Belly's that she got for Christmas and we played "Guess the Jelly bean flavor." Me and Jenn tried a jelly bean and jeff had the little guide that says what all the flavors are and we had to guess which one it was. LOL We were pissed off cuz it didn't come with a recipe book! damn! lol. After that was all over, We went home. Jeff then came over again latter to help us balance the pool table cuz he has a level. We finally got it balanced. Aparently our floor is REALLY slanted. Then me and jeff played like 30 games of pool. LOL. In the midst of all this, Denise came over so I could give her the presents I got her and so she could give me the one she got me. It was a feather bed!!!! (It's like a matresss pad but fluffier) Then I still had that huge mess in my room to worry about. I had to find a place to put all those presents. UGh, that was a challenge, but I pretty much did it. Theres stil a few things I have to find a place for.
Today: 12-26:
I can't believe Christmas came and Went. Unbelieveable. It never even hit me that it was Christmas. Normally I'm really happy and excited and have a lot of Christmas spirit, but this year just went by so fast taht I didn't have time to get excited for everything. Today something kinda weird happend though. Wired yet surprising. Erin called me. Yeah, thats right, the girl who hasent' called me for like three years and yadda yadda yadda finally called me. She's supposed to come over latter after dinner. Yikes!! I haven't seen her in so long! I'm kinda scared in a way. She turned really punk very fast. I'm just a little scared..... eeek! ill let you all know how everything went.
Anywhoo. hope everyone had a good Christmas!!!!
Ciao!.
P.S.- Happy Birthday Diedrich Bader!!!!! (Oswald from the Drew Carey Show) and a special shout out to my friend Lauren whose in the hospital now.

I'm SOOOO mad!!!!!! kinda playful-like mad, and yet furious at the same time. Yeah, let me explain.
Guess what I found out 2 weeks after the fact??!!!! MITCH HEDBERG WAS AT THE LEWIS BLACK AND DAVE ATTELL SHOW AT THE OAKDALE!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!! IM SOOO MAD THAT I DIDN"T GO!!!!!!!!!! For those of you who don't know, I LOVE Mitch Hedberg!!!!!!! Sooooooooooooo funny and cute!!!! And guess what?! I DIDN"T GO TO THE SHOW!!!!! ::SCREAMS!!!!:: He better start trouring here again soon! I was kinda iffy about going to the show cuz I really can't stand Dave Attell. I REALLY can't stand him. He's a drunk freak with no purpose in comedy at all. Heres a decent picture of Mitch Hedberg. He doesn't have is prurple glasses on which I love! but, it's the best one that I could find. it's from Mitchhedberg.net(sorry if it's blurry)

Is it me, or do I really like guys with long hair?! ::squeak!!:: he's so hott, but yet, he's married. :-(. yes, life is tough.
Okay, another reason why I'm pissed. Some stupid loser-freak-ass-son-of-a-bitch crack-head at my school who i've known for years, decided that it would be funny to put an article in the school newspaper about Title IX. For those of you who don't know, Title IX, is a law that allows equal funding and oppertunities for Women in sports and clubs that recieve government funding. I stand behind Title IX with all my heart and soul, and more. And this bitch desides that it's funny to write a whole article in the school newspaper saying that women baisiclly suck and don't belong in sports. That we should pretty much just stay in the house cooking and cleaning so that sorry-asses like him can come home to a nice clean hosue with a filling dinner and just put their feet up fot the rest of the night and drink and flip the channells. I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOO mad. Praciticlly every girl in the school is writing an article about it. We're all so pissed off. That kid is goin' down. I don't put up with that crap. Guess what folks, I've played basketball my entire life and gotten a town championship. I've also been a black belt since like 1996. I've played softball and gotten a town championship in that too. I took first place in the hot shot- competition last year too. He pretty much said that all those wonderful accomplishments i've done in my life should prety much be thrown away and burned. well, all i've got to say to taht is this. Meet me on the court, in the do-jo, or the softball field. THAN we'll see who belongs in sports. F**** YOU!!
Anyways. moving on to brighter things.
Yesterday was interesting to say the least. I went out with Erica (from work) and her friend Alec. We went to the Buckland Mall and chilled with them for a while. Erica just got a new Mustang. VERY nice. 1999. dark green with glitter in the paint. It's not metallic, it's actual glitter.! sooo awesome! I gatta go back there. I saw this chalk drawing of Elvis that I REALLY want!.
Anyways. I gatta go. stuff to do before bed. Ciao!

Wow. Remember a couple of posts ago when I said that I had 2 really weird dreams? Well this must be "Really Wierd Dream Month" for me. Honestly. This is nuts! LOL. Last night I had another wierd dream tahtw as just disturbing!!! I drempt that Katie was going out with my cousin Jeff. OMG WAS IT DISTURBING!!! LOL! I tried to warn him throughout my dream about how annoying and a nusence (sp?) she is and it ended when he pulled me aside (where we were i ahve no idea) and I said "Listen! I tried to warn you about her!!" and he's like "I don't need a warning!" or whatever...Something like that, and then he said "i'm going out wiht her because...." and then my alarm went off. Doesn't that suck?!?! Thats never happend to me before....someone's scentence being cut off like that in the middle of a dream. But MAN did that suck!!! not only is Jeff my best friend, but him and KATIE!??!?!?! ::shivers:: I don't think they've ever met anyways, but now I'm gonna make sure that they never do!!! LOL.
Anyways, i'm gonna go watch whose line or go to bed or whatever. Ciao!
Peace, Love, and Clay Aiken!!!!!!!!!!!!! Watch the Billboard Awards on Wednesday!!!!

Well, I talked to Erin yesterday. For the first time in God knows how long. I think our friendship is pretty much over. She just doesn't care. She doesn't wanna talk to me or call me or anything. I'll IM her ocassionally and see if I can't just push a little more. But if it doesn't work, Im done. I don't need to waste my time right? I have better things to do. But sometimes I think about her and I just start crying my eyes out. She was my first friend. I remember a little of when I met her too. I was about 3 and I just moved here. Can you all believe that she moved away when I was 9 and I've only gotten THREE letters since she moved? You know how many times I've written to her??? Let's jsut say a lot. ::sigh:: I can't believe it. I'm so hurt by it all ya know? And she almost left without giving me her new address. I was crying my eyes out the day before she left because she still ddin't give me her new address and my mom had to call and talk to her mom and get it. Her mom claimed that she was stressed out from moving and didn't think about it. I don't believe it. I'm really angry at her. I have been for so long. But it's so hard to move on when Iv'e known her for practiclly my whole life. But I swear, one more shot and thats it. Just one If she doesn't call me, or doesn't make any effort, I'm writing her a last "goodbye" letter and that'll be the end of it. I'm just gonna explain to her all the crap that she put me through and say that I'm not gonna deal with it anymore and if she wants to talk to me from this point on, she's gonna have to call me or e-mail me or whatever. I can't tell you all how sick I am of putting up with this crap. I also think it's really sad that 2 of my best friends are over the internet. People far away scattered around the country and probably have a snowballs chance in hell of meeting in person anytime in my life are the only ones that give a rats ass about me. Well, theres a possiblity that i'll meet Jeannette in April, but who knows. She might be in school when im there or something...I dunno. I hope to meet her though. Hell, I hope to meet Chandra too. I really hope to meet Chandra. It'll be about 4 years this summer since we started talking. Amazing how we've kept in touch that long. When my conversation with Erin ended yesterday, she said "keep in touch!" i was about to say "yeah, but i don't know how cuz it must be a new concept for you". ::sigh::
I guess right now what I should do is thank the people taht actually give a shit. Even though most of them don't read this:
Chandra- Even though u can get on my nerves, I still love you! :-D HP 4--->
Kristin- Good times in "women's fashion" chat rooms!!! LOL!!!
Jeannette- Claymates 4 life!
Rae- HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL! "hey rae" haha!
Git- Don't forget to answer the "cosmic phone" ;)
Mike- Ya know boy, I really need to see u more. And you better be at my show this year! I'll hunt you down!!! You don't know it yet, but i planted a tracking divice in your head so i know where you are all all times! ::evil laugh:: (j/k) Love ya!!
Sam- "His name isn't fat-shit cat, it's meatball!"
Lauren- Still planning our September weddings with Clay and Adam...::sigh:: LOL
Yeah, this entry really has been incredibly boring for all of you I'm sure. but my GGD's pics are still tehre if u want a little eye-candy. LOL- Ciao
