its raining. again. to the point that half of town is flooded and the interstate is one giant pileup. people in this town just cannot drive. i didnt have to make up stories for the other people in traffic, you could see it on their faces.

to try to get out of this very grinchy mood i'm trying to finish wrapping christmas presents while the Stranger is at class. he is a worse damn snoop than i am.

side note, they played Christmas in Hollis on the radio this morning and i was very happy.

side side note, one of the shithead teenagers in our complex purposefully broke some of our outdoor christmas decorations. i know i wasnt that bad when i was that age. even though they were only a few dollars, it still really upsets me to see things like that destroyed.

thanksgiving was overall good. like everyone else i ate too much and visited with family and friends. some of the highlights include watching the stranger and his cousin drink four loko (seriously, do not drink it. i see why they are pulling it off the market. i was woken up every few minutes that night bc the stranger thought he was having a heart attack.), getting another lap blanket for the nursing home completed, and going to the new restaurant at home that my friend's father opened. its the type of place that sutton needed years ago, so people can go hang out, have a nice meal (i am biased, my cousin is the chef. he came home from Sun Valley just to cook there!), and listen to local music.

other than that i feel like i've lived in a car. the first thing i did when i got home was lay down in the floor and sleep on the heating pad. i'm such a baby.

i'm counting down the days til christmas, not so much bc i'm excited for christmas (i'm trying, honestly) but i'm ready for a week off work. i dont care that we arent going anywhere. i feel like i just need to stay in bed and hide under the covers for awhile.
