Bit of an update
First off - Christmas. Same 'ol drabness as ever but I did get a couple
of rad presents! main one being Jazz Squid by the lovely ~Dusk101
I got a case for all my MAC make-up off the momma as well as some other stuff but the best being - remember the three flying ducks that were all the rage in like, the seventies? well I have better!! flying swallows!! they're brass and I have no idea how they're gonna be stuck to the wall but, goddamnit, they will take pride of place somewhere (I'm running out of room.. I need a flat!)
The friday before Christmas I went out with Kiri and Maz for the night while Adam had a night out with the boys. It was lovely to re-connect with people my age who are a lot less serious about life. Saw Amber and a few others while we were out, including an old friend from school who I haven't seen for years! Was rad to catch up. The three of us got a little drunk and after a while wondered back to Kiri's new flat (which btw is gorgeous) and played drunken Pixar Monopoly until some of kiri's mates came round.. at that point it was nearly 4am so I went to meet Ad in town for chips and to roam on home.
New year was fab! yeah it had it's downsides but for the most of it.. fantastic!
I went to Kiri's new pad and the old college 'crew' were there. Carly from school was there too, just loads of people I miss and rarely get to see anymore. Quite a few I'm still non the wiser to who they were but meh.The Wii was out and the twister.. along with an insane amount of beer and spirits. So I stayed there for a good few hours. Then just before midnight I left to walk into town to meet up with Adam for new years itself but the pub was locked and he wasn't answering his phone. So technically, I spent new years walking down a road and the first Happy New Year I got was off a chavvy smack head... great way to start the year! That really pissed me off actually so as soon as I got to Kiri's I downed a ton of shots then was back to being merry :P About 3am-ish Shaun walked me into town to meet up with Ad. He didn't look very impressed to see Shaun to be fair.. but it's not exactly safe for a lass on her own to walk through town alone at that time. Off to the kebab shop we went then home and watched a movie or two then snuggled up in bed. That's how we've spent the past few days really.. We haven't been waking up before 3pm. The other day it was nearly 6! Not complaining though :P
But yeah, once people start taking down their decorations I'll be happy. I'm not a fan of christmas anymore. it couldn't be further from magical these days.
Hope everyone had a good holiday though!

Tom got me an amazingly awful vase. It's bright red, about 3' high and so rad! Just a shame it wont fit anywhere in the house
got money off the family and on boxing day mum remembered that I had a
parcel a while back with "don't open till xmas" on it. I had no idea
about it! Simon had sent me a ginormous Nightmare Before Christmas
snowglobe and a lotto ticket. I have no idea how to repay him, in fact
everyone's having to wait until the end of January for christmas from
me. I'm just too poor.
