worst christmas *ever*!

just kidding! i just felt like saying that. 🙂 hehe….christmas was nice, don’t worry!

hm….what did we do for christmas eve…..trying to remember…….i think we watched some x-files and then eric fell dead asleep at like 9.30. christmas day was nice, though. we opened our little gift pile under the tree. we would have had no gift pile if it weren’t for cindy, my mom and al, and my grandparents, so thank you 🙂 i got some very nice fuzzy shearling slippers (with memory foam padding) from my mom ’cause my feet always hurt. eric got some fun stuff, like a chia herb garden from me :), and some stuff off of his list from various parties. we ate yummy candy from my grandparents (thank you!) and they included jabba, too, with a nice bag of doggie treats, which he loves.

we watched ‘a christmas story’ over lunch and then went to see ‘king kong’ in the evening. unfortunatly, after trudging a mile in the pouring rain and cold, ‘king kong’ was sold out. so i was thus able to see ‘the family stone’ with eric, as opposed to by myself. 😉 i liked it and teared up in a couple spots. eric thought it was okay for what he calls ‘a formula movie’. i didn’t think it would be so sad, though, but it made for a better, more rounded, more true-to-life story, at least i thought so.

for christmas dinner we stopped by a chinese take-out place to grab dinner on our trudge home, through the rain again. it was yummy! i rate it two chopsticks up!

here’s some picture highlights of the last couple days.

this here is what christmas eve looked like at our place. hehe…

oh! this morning was also my first training day at my new job. 🙂 finally! a job! it’s part-time in the mornings at freezepeach cafe (link on right side of page). i’m a barista-in-training all this week and you can check their webcams to see me from 8 am to 12 pm. since today was my first day, i’m still very confused when it comes to making coffee, frothing milk, using the register, and keeping track of orders, but i hope that i’ll get better eventually. it’s just nice to have a job. and it’s not an uptight office job! yay! 🙂
