Yep, this is a pretty good song. Now it's time to watch "The Campaign."

Tomorrow, I should finally be able to get my prescription for my adhd meds. Nearly a week without them, and looking around the house, it really shows.

Tomorrow, I will also be checking up on my friend. I am so disgusted with her daughter and daughter's boyfriend. My friend spent christmas night in jail. What I'd like to know is why the daughter's boyfriend didn't have to spend christmas night in jail. He pushed her down twice, the second time so hard ended up nearly halfway across the room. My friend has osteoporosis so I'm concerned she may have fractured something. She had two drinks, but the thing is, she was up the whole night before so it affected her more than it normally would. But anyway, the cops were idiots, made a number of mistakes, including not reading her her miranda rights when they cuffed her. But she can't go out for New Year's now...and I'm feeling a trifle guilty cause I want to go out for a little bit. I missed the count down the last two years cause last year, I went to hook-up and wound up sick instead and the year before, my booty-call at the time purposely made me late cause he didn't want to go. And I have my outfit already picked out. (Plus I think I may kinda sorta want to get lucky cause it's been awhile and what better way to bring in the new year?) I suppose, I'll figure it out.

So I had a pretty good christmas for the most part. Nice time with the kids, good time at my friend's. (Well up until she was arguing with her daughter's boyfriend and without going into details, my oldest and I are the ones who cleaned up her kitchen. Which makes me very grateful for the (mostly) loving relationship I have with my daughters. Parenting, the most important job I've ever had. The most rewarding one, too.) Played mad libs, ate lots of cookies, had many good conversations.

Last night I watched "The Raven" with my girls and future son-in-law. Wasn't particularly impressed, although the Poe character said some pretty witty things. "I drink because I'm shy, " he says at some point. Which was funny, because we'd been talking about people with social anxiety who go to bars and get drunk. And I made some comment, referring civilian people as pedestrians because I couldn't think of the right word. They won't let me forget it, even though pedestrian also means common.

And I managed to not email, text, or call anyone I have no business calling. Although I received a text wishing me a merry x-mas from my on-off ex who is going to remain an ex permanently. So I just ignored that one.

Thinking about a hot shower. Cause for one thing, I'm freezing. And for another, my oldest and her fiance got me a perfume/body wash/lotion set I'm dying to try. Just too bad I don't have anyone to enjoy a shower with.

Taking a much needed break from baking. Still have another batch of fruitcakes to make and cookies to decorate, but I'm having a much better day than yesterday. Plus my rear is sore for some reason so I really need to sit.

Find myself missing someone who isn't missing me. (Cause if he were, well then, obviously there would be no need to miss him.) But it's okay and I know I'll be okay. As long as I don't use the holidays as an excuse to text, email, or call.

Tomorrow, going to be a busy day. Going to the best friend's who also happens to be my youngest's aunt biologically. Going to bring "Mad Libs" cause there should be a lot of people and that will be fun. I can't believe I actually have almost everything wrapped. That almost never happens this early. (Usually I'm up till 4 in the morning!)

I hope everyone is enjoying the holidays and spending time with their loved ones. Good night and much love to everyone!

Today, it was a struggle just to get out of bed. I'm thankful I don't have days like this often. Watched movies with the kids which was nice.

Shopping went pretty well. Got started a little later than I intended. I woke up around 8 this morning, the first time. But my bed was so comfy, I didn't want to get out of it. And I fell back asleep. Have my shopping done with the exception of a few small things. Tomorrow, I will be making more cookies and 1863 fruitcake. (Seriously, that is what it's called.) Which is way more delicious than it sounds like it would be cause it in no way resembles the traditional fruitcake.

Anyway, my friend and I were talking about men and sex, and she says all men are perverts. I told her I don't hold that against them cause pretty much everything makes me think about sex, too.

I think this is a beautiful song and video. I love the ballet.

Sometimes, my habit of procrastinating things ends up being really problematic for me. Like today, for instance. I went to fill my prescription for my adhd medication. I should have done that yesterday or the day before. And normally, I call to make sure my pharmacy has it on file, but I thought, they always have it, I'll just go. Of course, that was after 5, and since tomorrow is Saturday, it's not likely anyone will be in...and Monday is Christmas eve...so I'll probably be without it until Wednesday. So I say, thank god for coffee.

Finally got the tree up and decorated. Even made some cookies. I would be doing more baking tomorrow, but I'm going on an out-of-town shopping trip with my best friend. No offspring allowed.

Speaking of offspring, my oldest is hilarious. She informed me this morning that a certain person and I speak to each other at her wedding, she's kicking us both out. So I asked her, if he says something to me, am I supposed to pretend I don't see or hear him? And she said that will work. The person in question, my ex from a few years ago who also happens to be cousin to her fiance. I don't want to talk to him. Not to be friendly. Not to even be polite. Not after the last time I talked to him. So ignoring him will be a joy.
