Wow, I can't believe how long it's been since I've posted. At least the last one was pretty long. I wish this one could be super long, but there's not really time. I'm on my mom's laptop - Will doesn't believe in sharing the DSL line with me, jackass.

My Thanksgiving was practically painless. I watched the 12-hour Buffy Marathon in the basement, hiding from the relatives, who left early anyway. There wasn't room for my bro and I to eat at the table with the elderly & super-annoying, so my mom told us we could just eat in our hide-out. I at least stood at the door and said goodbye to all of them, Will couldn't be bothered. I have a little lingering guilt, but my mom didn't mind. She only invites them so she doesn't feel guilty about not going to see them at Christmastime. So... yeah. My relatives don't like me anyway. I'm scary with my black hair, or so they say.

Friday night, Josh had a gathering, and Kathy drove me to it. It was a crazy night for me to not have a car. I rode with Kathy to Josh's, hung there while Bret Swanson ate a decorative gourd (why do all my Bret Swanson stories involve him eating weird things, or kissing people?), then rode with David Nolan to see Die Another Day with Julie, Cori, Justin, Kat, Steph, Dan, basically the Old School Crowd. Then we all went to my house where they ate pie and lots of cheese ("It's still good! It's still good!") and crackers. Then Dan drove me to Steve's, which is where Josh's party had relocated to, where drunk Big Toe taught Dan some Yoga, and we caught up with Julie Grubar, who works at a skating rink. Then I made Josh drive me home when he left, where he blew me away once again with his theatre evangelism. He is spreading the gospel and I applaud and envyhim for it. Oh, to believe in something and be so articulate about it... ::sigh::

Last night, I had my gathering, and it was most excellent, despite temporary relocations to Denny's and then, much later, Dan's house. There was giddiness galore, a little angst, and some drama, but I think a good time was had by all. In another couple weeks, everyone will be home again for Christmas, and it will be magical. I think we should do the predictions thing even if it is remotely connected to Britney Spears, and maybe do a Secret Santa thing... or maybe just a big game of Assassins? I'm open to suggestions here, people. But right now I have to run along.

::runs along::
