yesterday was just a fabulous day. i slept in till nine. chatted w/my mom for a bit on the phone. felt very productive because i researched car insurance, calculated an estimate of our tax refund, balanced quicken, washed and put away four loads of laundry, and did 30 minutes of pilates and 45 minutes on the exercise bike. plus, i ate well, nothing that made me feel guilty later. and i read the notebook and watched love actually. plus, i barely watched any tv during the day. and i straightened the entire apartment.
today, not as fabulous. my abs are killing me from the pilates. i can barely move. was only able to do 25 minutes on the bike. am seriously craving candy. and i am lacking motivation to do anything productive. i hate having days like this.
anyway...
christmas weekend was fun. friday went to linc's brother taylor's 30 surprise birthday party. it was a lot of fun. hung out with my way cool sister in law erin while the boys played poker with the professional dealer that erin hired. chatted a bit with josh d. and manuel l. saw timmy h. strip butt-nekkid and run a lap around the neighborhood at 11pm. watched grown men chug from a baby keg. checked out a super cool hummer stretch that came to pick up the boys for a night out on the town. was awoken by lincoln at 5am as he poked me so i could drive us back home. he was trashed. he hadn't been drinking all night until the limo came and he tried to play catch up with some crown royal and his old pal jack d. needless to say, he was hungover for christmas eve.
christmas eve consisted of linc puking/sleeping until 4pm when i had to drive to globe. then he just slept on my mom's couch while i helped make dinner. then my aunt and uncle and cousins came over and we had a great dinner. my peppermint cheesecake was edible but not something i will ever make again. stayed there until about 11pm or so, then went to stay the night at the hansen house. which was like my first time sleeping there as a married person so i could legitimately sleep there. it was nice.
woke up about 7:30am, called brian to see what his plans were. told him to have my family wait for me before opening the presents from linc and i. opened presents with the hansen's. got some nice stuff from them. went over to my house, 1st christmas morning not waking up over there, and trenton and shilah had both opened their presents from me without waiting. rubbed me the wrong way. so i was a bit of a grouch in the morning. got some cute stuff from my parents.
later we went to harbison field and threw around some footballs and kicked the soccer ball. then went to the hansen house for dinner at 4 then went to my nana's house for dinner at 5. busy day. went back to my house, had some hot chocolate linc's mom gave me. then back to the hansen house to sleep. we headed back to the valley the following afternoon.
saw king kong. loved it. cried. excellent movie even though right at the good part some stupid kid pulled the fire alarm and we had to sit and wait for 30 minutes while the movie people figured out how to shut it off.
other than one little disappointment christmas eve morning, christmas was good.
