It's Christmas today. I'm a grinch because I don't really care for the holidays. I didn't make it to my sister Angel's. I went to my sister Nat's who lives about 3 minutes away from me driving. Last night I decided that I was going to go out, so I made myself a couple martinis and got ready. Around 10:00 I went to my favorite bar and had a couple more martinis. Just went alone, I do that a lot. I talked with some people and had an okay time. At least I was out of the house. About 1:00 I left, stopped by McDonalds, and then went home to eat. I got up at 5:30 for a bit, then went back to bed till 8:00. I don't know why I didn't sleep in later. I'm really lucky I took some Excedrin before I went to bed too because I didn't have a headache when I woke up.
I just did things around the house and was on the computer till about 1:45 and then I headed over to Nat's apartment. We visited and then ate, played on our computer, and visited some more. It was nice and relaxing and the food she cooked was really good. We had ham with all the fixings.
She got a letter notifying her that there is going to be no smoking on the property as of January 1st. I think that is bullshit. Can they make you not smoke in your own back yard? She is pissed. She is going to look for another apartment within this year and she has lived there for 13 years. I wonder if that is okay to do. We are a free country. They say you can smoke inside your apartment, but you will be responsible for any damage and stuff. They are basically forcing you to smoke in your apartment. A lot of people smoke outside because they don't want their apartment to smell. I think it's ridiculous. You should be able to go out on your patio and have a cigarette if you want to.
It was an alright day. I'm glad that I have tomorrow off. I get to relax a little bit. I have a bunch of billing to do when I get back to work on Tuesday and real soon the payroll to do. I don't really like coming back from a three day weekend because you have to squeeze all of your work into four days. It makes it difficult to get things done on time. Eight hours is a lot of time to be missing. I am grateful for the day off though.
I gave Nat her tumblers that I got her and she was happy. I also gave my niece the mascara and eyelash curler. She was happy because she had needed that. They gave me some towels for the kitchen and $40 cash. She said she didn't know what to get me, so I can buy something I want with the money. That was nice of her to do. I told her she shouldn't have.
Tomorrow I will probably end up doing the laundry. I think my newly acquired friend will be coming over to visit for a little bit too. Guess I'll have to work out the times. He is really nice, but I don't know him well. I hope to learn a lot more about him. I love getting new friends. I don't have a lot of them. They come and go so quickly and don't really have any close ones that do things with me. I'm a loner most of the time.
My son liked the $100 I sent him for Christmas. He said he might buy a new XBox or a new Playstation 3. I'm glad that he liked the money. Lol. I would too if I were 15 years old. You can get what you want, not what someone picks out for you. They were going to have a ham dinner tonight and just kick back at home. I hope he had a nice Christmas with his dad.
