watching: still pocahontas (i paused it for a long time and came back..)
hmm. so while i was wrapping presents, my mom, in her roundabout attempt at apologizing for blowing up earlier, told me that she had tried to buy me the $200 super-special all-singing all-dancing edition of
american gods but had failed in her attempts to do so (hill house never returned her emails and barnes and noble thought she was insane)... and she said that she knew it was stupid and that we couldn't really afford it but she wanted me to have it and then we both cried because, i don't know, that's what we do. (no one in our family is very emotionally competent. we can't really deal with anything in any way other than crying or sulking.)
& everyone says that christmas is a time for family and the thing is that no one in my immediate family really likes anyone in our extended family. i mean my uncle scott's alright and so are my maternal grandparents but really? mm. yeah.
but the immediate family? yeah, they're good people.
sooo u tgubj u;.,... oh. ahem.
sooo i think i'm going to go take some nyquil and fall over somewhere. hopefully my bed. ooor i might sprawl out over the couch for awhile and finish watching this movie. mm, cheesy.
