Lemmings are funny.
See, I got the "100 Things" from Cora on December 21st. Then we saw it appear on December 22nd on the blogs of Haley, Katie, Anna, Raven, and Nolan. There was also a comment made bout making a list on Coni's journal that day, but time is precious, and unlike the rest of us she had better things to do. Following that day, there were a few days of calm. I blame Christmas. Then on the 26th of December, a list appeared on Myrna's blog. I think I saw another one on someone's blog on the 27th, but I don't remember who's it was, or anything like that, so yea.
I love my friends. We /are/ geeks, guys. And I can't think of anything I would rather be.

On a completely unrelated-ish topic: This year my friends managed to renew my faith in Christmas. For the most part. I was suprised with amazing gifts from my 'family' and other friends, and my boy managed to shock me with his amazing gift. My sister came up with a totally thoughtful gift, and for the first time in my life, my grandparents gift was not completely ugly, or about 12 years too young for me. I was shocked.
Christmas Eve I spent with my family, eating Korean food as is our tradition. I went to bed amazingly early, due to being sick, and really it was not a terribly exciting night.
Christmas Day I woke up waaaay too early, due to having gone to bed so early, and sat around reading and drinking tea until everyone else got up. We made French toast, had our breakfasts, and then finally got to opening stockings and gifts. It was very calm, and relaxed. Unlike certain previous years. After that, I spent most of the day either a) on my computer, b) listening to my new cd, or c)reading. We had Christmas dinner, and it was tasty. Then more sleep. Yay, sleep.
Boxing Day I had a matinee, which really managed to take up most of my day. But after... *grin* I went to my other house to spend time with my other family, and lots of friends. There was an amazing Christmas dinner (despite the fact that we kept calling it Thanksgiving dinner) and good company, and good conversation, and a really wonderful atmosphere. I laughed at discovering that both Myrna and I had bought Star the same gift - an elctric hand-held mixer. Yea, one of those everyday sorts of things. I almost cried when opening certain gifts, though they shall stay anonymous. *ahem books ahem* After much fun and gift-giving, I went with Star to drive Mike home. We then spent a good 45mins, randomly driving around Millwoods and talking. It was really cool. We got home, talked with Eric for awhile, and then all of us went to bed exhausted.
It was really a wonderful Christmas all around. I felt really lucky to get to spend time with my other family, and to be blessed with such wonderful people in my life. It reminded that not every day has to make me feel depressed, and like a failure.
And hey, it's not everyone who's LRPS character can get a Christmas present. Lucky Adi.
Well, off now. Night all! And if I didn't get to say it to you before, Merry Christmas everyone. I love you all.
