Holiday Jeer
Now Playing on XM Satellite Radio 22:
The Killers - Somebody Told Me
The spell checker just makes me mad, so i didn't bother. Get over it.
I'm off today and I'm glad of it. I still feel pretty isolated at work and I'm not real sure what to do about it. Gee, I can hardly wait for Black Friday to roll around so i can be in the computer department. That should be a lot of fun.
Its funny how people can be so terrible at such a time of year. I know that for the most part, theyare usually just trying to have a good holiday for their families, but they are so mean by the time they endure the crowding and the insane traffic that there is no holiday cheer left in them. I feel the same way and because I'm the one who is on the job i can't be nasty right back to them.
Today I am thankful for two simple pleasures; Amazon.com and XM Satellite Radio. Amazon for making Holiday shopping a little more bearable and XM for freeing me from Gigabytes of MP3's. I used to buy a lot of CD's and rip them all to my hard drive so I could have something to listen to here at the computer. I spend a lot of time here because i hate leaving the house this time of year. I'd go upstairs but it's really cold in my bedroom.
I think I must be broken or something because I can't seem to be happy with anyone. There are certainly opportunities, people who are interested in me I mean. But there is usually such complication around it that I'm afraid to commit to it anyway. That' happens a lot in my life. I can't count how many times I pissed of Washu because she's come all the way out here to be around me and I wasn't able to be close to her at all. It was a regular occurrence. Of course, it didn't help that she often comes around Christmas shopping season when I can't request any time off work.
This yeah I'm kind of glad not to have a significant other. I don't have to worry about going to anyone else's family gathering this holiday season. I didn't mind the past couple years because I knew Lindsey's family pretty well. I could at least feel at home in her house surrounded by her family.
New relatinships kind of suck this time of year anyway. I hate it when you meet the family around Thanksgiving or Christmas. That just addds a whole new kind of pressure to make a good impresssion. You wouldn't want your new dat's parents to be ashamed of you in front of the extended family you know? They become more critical of who their child chose as a partner.
So this year i can just stay home and be lazy. Watch my boy open his plunder and just sit back for the day.

it is sad how commerial this season has become. it can be a hard time to be alone as holiday stuff seems to always be about family. as those people are mean to you, just think about how miserable they must be in that they are trying to please their family and worrying that they won't.

I am broken too.
