Christmas Eve was busy at work, but it wasn’t anywhere near as busy to me as it was on the 23rd. That’s good and bad though. For some reason, I was more into it the previous day. After work, I found that my friend was also doing nothing that night, so I invited him over to hang out with my roommate and me. We drank some beers, played Donkey Kong Jenga, and watched Star Wars and Harold & Kumar 2. It’s good to hang out once in a while, and I had a lot of time. It was a much more fun way to spend Christmas Eve and the start of Christmas Day than usual.

 
On the 25th I went to my mom’s house. For Christmas my family gave me some money to pay some bills. That’s good, because I have a lot of bills. I also got some hand sanitizer, a pen, some candy, and some gum. Yay! It was super noisy all day with loud movies and some family yelling (along with the kids), so I escaped into Pete’s office to work quietly. I managed to write my review of ProtoGalaxy, a pretty cool arcade shooter.
There was a lot of terrific food! We had a buffet set up for most of the day. Look, food:

• Lox, bagel crisps, cream cheese, capers
• Minestrone
• Crackers and cheese
• Three types of cookies
• Salami, cheese, and bread
• Popcorn
• Marshmallows (I guess? I didn’t see them)
• Other tasty stuff

And then for dinner we had filet mignon and vegies! I was pretty damn full by the end of the day. Now today I’m looking forward to removing all the Christmas magazines, taking care of the newspapers, and zoning. I’m looking forward to it.
