And To All A Good Night
Traditionally, the Shenk-Valerio offspring sleep in Biz's room the night before Christmas, reading the aforementioned title aloud and then listening to a children's audiotape of A Christmas Carol. Last night, Matt instead brought his projector and we watched disc 2 of The Two Towers on the ceiling.
I was kind of disappointed.
This is called "aging."
Anyway, Santa came and was good as always. I now have enough cookware to last through 2039, easy, and some new slippers. At this point in the day we take breaks from one another to shower and play Mario Kart, etc., and I weigh the moral implications of ignoring the family in favor of my new West Wing DVDs (yessss) (family won) (but only because I'm a pussy).
Now it's time to think about my resolutions for the new year, which include finding a job in January and--here's the tricky part--keeping it for a whole year.
