"A Christmas Entry" 2003-12-26 - 3:00 a.m. older - previous - next - profile - host - my band - my lj Merry Christmas Everyone I hope yours was as decent as mine I got a lot of good stuff a lot of mediocre stuff and, as usual; the thing I wanted the most was not amongst my gifts I don't know it always seems to happen I wanted two things more than anything else one I got; a pair of Aviator Sunglasses I wish I could wear them all the time, but they're so dark I can only wear them when I need to wear them [ie-when it's real bright] the other thing was Tony Hawk's Underground which I did not get whatever I don't really wanna bitch about it the biggest gift I got was probably the one I bought for myself yesterday I got to work and found out they had 20" flat-screen tv's on sale for $75; one day only now, my tv's been busted for a while and a 20" for $75 is too good a deal to pass up so I bought myself one; as an early Christmas present it turns out I was tricked the screen is flat but the entire apparatus is actually bigger than my old one but whatever it's an inch bigger and it works and it was a bargain as far as other stuff I got so many albums I don't know what to do with them all the biggest[and most surprising] was from my aunt the aunt I bitch about in here occasionally who's like my mom but worse she got me the new Raveonettes album; which I didn't even think you could get in America without importing it that was awesome and I'd also like to give a shout out to Robyn for getting me Built to Spill/Caustic Resin on vinyl vinyl=cool and having Built to Spill on vinyl is groovy real horror show anyway as far as Christmas day goes; it wasn't perfect I went to my uncle's house and my cousins and my dad and I started setting up this game of "Lord of the Rings" Risk one of my cousins got for Christmas it took us two hours of setting up me and one of my cousins occupied opposite sides of Mirkwood Forest[the map was Middle Earth, obviously], and we both put larger amounts of troops than was smart into it I made a vow that Mirkwood would be mine at any cost the build-up was delicious and after two hours of set-up; we took a break to get dinner well, after the first fucking bite of dinner, I got sick I had to drive home before the battle even started that bit but in exchange my friends came over and we exchanged gifts, which was fun and later I played a few games of Red Faction with my cousins at their house which would've been fun if I hadn't sucked so bad but tomorrow I have a meeting with the manager at Wal-Mart I don't know what it's about I've been thinking about it; and the only thing I could think of that would merit the manager himself speaking to me[supervisors are more than adequate for stuff as simple as a firing] would be if they wanted to keep me on after seasonal employment ended which is fine with me but I don't really think I've been that outstanding of a worker and I just can't buy that this is going to be for something good so my plan is to keep worrying about it as hard as I can between now and the meeting so that I can make myself sick and overcomplicate the situation that much more it's my answer to everything but whatever I didn't mean to end on such a down-note Merry Christmas To All; And To All A Good Night � � |
