2002-12-25 - 11:41 p.m. christmas 2002... monday: dinner with mando and "the artist" went off w/o a hitch. marinated catfish, baked potatos, green salad. it was pretty good. smoked a little, drank a lot, had our respective love-ins. mando made chorizo and eggs for breakfast. i was super stoked on being with such special people at such a special time of the year. the three of them are my family. i love them all. tuesday (cont.): went to steve & hollie's new place. did i mention they're moving back to smltwn? well, they are. helped paint, hung out, it was cool. got home, matty was wrapping - last minute all the way, mando & "the artist" were gettin' it on, and i took a shower. the boys took their leave, then matt and i went to my nana's house. tons of people, presents, food. stayed til 2 a.m., ate too many tamales, drank too many cervezas, got home, passed out. wednesday: woke up at noon (fucking noon!!), stuffed some stocking, opened my gifts after steadfastly refusing to let matt tape the occasion, "first christmas" or not. watched matt open his, showered, went to my parents. opened more gifts, got all three things i asked for: 1. band of brothers boxed set dvd 2. blue striped gap scarf 3. car lighter adapter thingie for cell phone got all sentimental watching my family open their gifts, delighted in watching my nephews run around all dressed up & looking so cute, ate, didn't drink, watched "a christmas story", and the "coupling" marathon, and the laker game, got home, smooched, etc. i asked my sweet boy if he regretted not going home to see his moms. he did, but more than that he didn't. i don't want to see him sad. ever. but, i know that he is. not unbearably so, but still. i also think i understand his need to let the chips fall where they may with his mother. it can't be easy, but neither can knowing the truth and not being able to let others in on it. i don't wanna get super heavy or whatever. all in all, it was a super rad christmas. my family is healthy, happy, and we're all together. what more can i ask for? |
