So, how did everyone do? [View all]

My holiday was completely bland and almost nonexistent. I suppose that is my lot in life from now on.

It is always funny to me when I get the gifts from my mother. She always sends both of us a gift card in addition to presents. She always tells us to 'use them for something fun!' And, every year, I have to tell her the same thing.

"Well, I find being able to eat 'fun'. I find having clothes that are not rags 'fun'. So, believe me, they are being used for 'something fun'... survival!" (And, then I don't hear from her for five months. My mother's side of the family has this thing where, if you hear from someone, there must be something wrong. If you don't, everyone is doing a-okay!)

Here, however, we can let it out, or let it in.

So, how was everyone else's holiday? No worries? Great fun? Small issues? New joys? Earth shattering destruction?
