I dislike it when people complain about things that I have worse and dont care about. A friend of mine was complaining that her Christmas is crappy this year, because her parents are not doing their Christmas stuff. She has an SO but wont have her parents around.
I would love the chance to have a parentless Christmas. The chance to do something really creative and sexy for the holidays. This is a great opportunity she has here, and shes failing to see the value. I have always been alone for the holidays , but for the first time last year I had a SO for the holidays. I thought my life of loneliness for the holidays was at an end.
Oh sure Im being cheery and helping out my friend, but this is the other side of me complaining. She at least has an SO. She doesnt have to spend the holidays alone watching her friends be with their close loved ones.
But you know other than complaining about it, it doesnt really bother me. It would probably hurt more if there was a particular person that I really wanted to be with. But there isnt. I thought it was going to bother me a lot more, but so far its been ok. I think Im finally recovering from my broken heart. Which is good. But Im never sure. I reserve final judgment.
And other than stupid crap I have nothing to say. It was a holiday in retail today. Nothing comment worthy occurred.

Likewise, you can tell your friend to stop by Bacchanal (corner of Poland and Chartres in the Bywater) Tuesday through Thursday evenings and Sunday evenings and ask for Ryan. I don't work there, but I'm almost always there those nights. Lots of us sitting around tables with a couple bottles of wine and talking. Should be plenty of people there who could give her a line on a much better living situation at the very least.
