So, Christmas without my mom, dad, and sister wasn't all that bad. The only time I got sad is when everyone was ripping through gifts Christmas Eve and nobody was paying attention to anybody. But, christmas morning when my nephews Noah and Landin, came down the stairs to their tunnel tent and santa gifts, made it all better.
It's amazing how kids can make you so happy at times just because they are kids, and do kid things. Other times you want to play Michael Jackson and hang them over a balcony railing.
But, all in all kids are my favorite. And christmas morning with kids is my favorite. Their faces light up with joy, even though the night before they refuse to go to sleep.
I wish I had the priviledge of taking naps. I SO take back all of those times in kindergarten when I was given the opportunity to take a nap at school, ahh...again, to be a kid.
I wish kids could be grown ups first, Benjamin Buttons. And, see the fortunacey (my new word) of being children, and embrace warm strawberry milk in a sippy cup and someone wiping their butt and lathering it in powder.
Rambling, now. Christmas was awesome, pretty awesome for being without my parentals, as awesome as it could be. I could't be anywhere else and feel as home as I do here with my second family, that's not even related to me, but just as awesome as blood.
Now, I'm enjoying down time with my neighbors, as Will enjoys playing call of duty 2 and I eat sopapillas and lose my ability to breathe like I'm 19 years old, feeling as if I smoked 5 packs of cigarettes in an hour. What I'm trying to say is, I ate too much fried dough and my chest is tight. But, they're sooo good.
Good night all, be safe. December 26, 2009. 5 More days of 2009. Geez, this is depressing. The years go by really fast these days.
