Well, Christmas eve, like I said earlier, we went to my Grandparents house in Portland and had cold cuts (w/ home made ham). My cousins had all of their babies there so we had fun with that. I got to dress up as santa clause and give them all presents, after I did, I did a crazy stripper-esq “Santa Baby” dance which ended in quasi-lapdance for my uncle. I was quite the crowd pleaser. Pics here.

Christmas day we got up around 10 and opened presents with my family. I got some cool clothes including a new suit, a deep fryer and a toaster oven. My brother got a car, which is rad. He got a 1989 Toyota Carolla. It’s silver, has a manual transmission and has about 130k miles. Pretty nice ride.

After that Malcolm and I went to starbucks and I bought him coffee for christmas and then we got all the files back transferring onto my system, so as of now my system is all fixed and I just need to go pick it up. I came home and took a shower and got ready to go to my Aunt’s house.

We got to my Aunt’s about 5:00pm and we had a very nice dinner with Ham, sweet potatoes, candied carrots and other nummy stuff. We opened a few presents and then got down to business playing poker. The first game was a $1 buy in and there were like 8 people. Adam and I got First and second and since I payed for him we just split the pot. The second game was a $5 buy in and Adam and I won again so again we split the pot since I paid for him. He came out like $10 ahead and I came out like $12.50 ahead because I financed the whole ordeal. The only other winners were my cousin Allie who got her $1 back and my dad who got his $5 back in the second game, so all but $1 came home with my family It was really pretty fun and really nice to see my aunts, uncles and cousins.

Today I went to work which was weird because there is like no one there. There were about 5 cars in the parking lot when I got there and about 3 when I left (including mine). The lights were all on which is good because normally they turn them off when the site is closed. Jim and I did a lot of work but it was all mental so we don’t really have anything to show for it. We do know what we’re going to do though which is a good thing, I should have enough to do on Wednesday and Thursday. I don’t have to work tomorrow (I would but they are replacing the generator so there is no power) so I’m probably gonna stay up kinda late for no reason.

I dunno how I’m getting home yet, Nolan, Jim and Ben are all going up at different tims, maybe I’ll take advantage of all three to get all of my stuff up there Now I think I am gonna go read and listen to some music.
