Well, I guess I'm getting my Christmas gift from Nanny early this year. Which is half YAY! and half "hey, but it's not Christmas yet!" But it's not like I don't know what I'm getting, so what's the big deal? Plus, I could use the money, and at least one cousin is getting theirs early too, plus my Mom. And I guess Nanny isn't sure yet whether she'll do Christmas Eve at her house (which is tradition). I doubt she'll end up not though, just because we've always done it, but it shows how the family just isn't as into the holiday spirit anymore. Kind of depressing, but I relate.

Anyway, though, it's silly to care about getting it now or getting it on Christmas Eve. Right? I mean, duh, it's money. Lots of it. I don't want to use much of it though for gifts or anything, so I'm going to try not to, though I'll likely be tempted. I also want to set aside some to save, because I know that would be the smart thing to do, but it's a gift! I don't wanna save it! I should spend it on myself, don't y'all think? Hmm. I'll have to ponder this further. I definitely am going shopping with it, though. Jeans, baby, jeans! And sweaters and shirts! Whee!

I need a happy shopping trip or something right now too, since I've been in a funk of a mood these last few days. I felt fairly depressed-y earlier, though I'm not quite sure why. Still in the background, but meh. Whatever. Maybe loneliness, maybe the time of year, who knows. I hope it passes. I mean, it's okay. I just hate feeling all irritable and shitty. Fuck off, funk!

Not much else to report. I slept in till four in the afternoon, which meant I clocked in at a good 12 hours of sleep. Heh. I took a benadryl at noon though (allergies are acting up lately), so it knocked me out. Kind of a boring day, all in all. Except for some Cute!War action, that is. ( I loves me some Tink )

Oh my God, WEIRD!

I'm watching RWLV right now, right? And the chick that Frank was slipping the tongue to, in the confessional? Wearing a dress I own! Crazy. I wear that dress all the time, during the summer.

Hmph, well. And to think, I chose the sex swing as the best toy! Haha, TMI!

Oh, wow. My Christmas gift is half what I expected, this year. Of course I'm grateful, but I was still a bit shocked. Especially since it's seemed the amount has gone up for everyone, every year. But, like I said, it went down by half, this time. I shouldn't be surprised though, because Poppy is gone now, which means the extra money he brought in (he still did consulting work and the like, after retiring) is gone, and her stocks have gone down, and she's had her insurance shoot up from the accident she's been in. And on and on. It's smart for her to start being more cautious with her money now, I think.

Well, I guess this means I won't have so much to think about, with the saving vs. spending issue. Heh. I mean, sure, I could save it, but it's half as much as I thought it would be and it's a gift, so I'm much less tempted to be all mature and frugal with it. In other words, it's spending time, baby. Heh.

But yeah, this just proves what I kind of suspected Christmas would be like this year. None of us are going to be able to go all out on each other with gifts like usual. I mean, I know I sure as Hell won't. Neither will Mom, and definitely not Dad. And really, big deal. I care more right now about wishing I could have more money to spend on gifts for others, but at least I know we're all in the same boat. So I won't feel so bad about having to be a bit cheaper than I like in my shopping.

I think the holidays this year are going to be kind of blah. I mean, Nanny doesn't even really want to do the typical Christmas Eve thing at her house! Man. And everyone else is more stressed out over money and all than full of holiday cheer. I miss Poppy. Christmas isn't the same without him.
