Grumpy Beastie's Other Lair

Almost done playing catch up I swear. Over break I attempted to take it easy and sleep but that didn’t work out too well. To start off break my dad and I had to go to my aunt my house for dinner so couldn’t go home for 3 days after I finished finals week. We stayed with his friends and it was total chaos. GC had just moved back in and was intentionally causing as many fights with her parents as possible. Also there was a 15-year-old exchange student from France there that didn't speak much English. Her host family went on vacation without her. GC and the French girl and I went to see The Holiday. Dinner at my aunts was just uncomfortable to the point of being almost painful. When I finally got home my mother decided to drag me to every gallery exhibit she could find. Which wasn’t too bad. Flyboy was in town for 2 days so I went to dinner with him and Livers, which was fun. This year we didn’t go Christmas tree hunting and had a fake tree for the first time ever. We also didn’t make it to go look at lights. I went to the movies, Medford and sushi with Martini and Livers. Jen was home for about 2 days so I got to see her and I got to see her in Medford too. Most of my break was spent playing Mexican dominoes or trying to sleep. I gave my cat her first catnip toy, a catnip filled chili pepper and she just went crazy it was good to watch. It was a bit odd at home because my dog died right before thanksgiving break. Both my cousin and one of my sisters had kids not too long ago as well. I also got new glasses while it was home. New year’s eve I went to the movies with Jen's mom and my aunt. Martini had to come and rescue me from them later. I crocheted yet another scarf. I really don’t remember break too much...so I'm just going to stop trying to write about it before I hurt myself.
