I'm tired but got a full nights rest. The gifts have started to come in and it's like Yule, but early. The gifts are good, the gifts sometimes outweigh the family trauma, I mean drama. Yesterday was the first day my mother saw the nose piercing and the tattoo and oh yes by the way I'm pagan. She took them all in stride. Blinked rapidly as she processed the information and then just moved on. She's a real trooper. I'm sitting here in the semi dark simply enjoying the silence before the storm, having coffee and a cigarette. This is good.

I need it to be christmas again, not on the same scale as your event but I'm getting that feeling of anticipation mixed with nervousness.. Keep the coffee hot and strong...
