Ugh

What is it with people dying on Christmas? Harold Pinter, Eartha Kitt and baby Faith. Faith and Hope were conjoined twins - Hope died at the beginning of December. Happy Christmas to their parents, huh? :(

And...I've just seen footage of the mental Boxing Day sales on the news. Some woman stayed in a hotel last night just so she could be close to the sales in the morning. I DO NOT GET IT! I mean, these people do realise that the sales will still be on tomorrow, right? And for even a couple of weeks after that.

I have too much shit to eat. Why do I buy heaps of Christmas food when it's just me? Because I am dumb, clearly. I don't even want it.

Actually, a lot of stores do have "Boxing Day only" sales. I mean, a hotel stay is still overdoing it, but I can understand (on an academic level at least) why people might get up early to go to the shops, etc.

Do they? Oh well, in that case I get it. I just never heard of them before - shows how often I hit the shops on Boxing Day.

This year is weird though. You have to wonder how much lower stores will be able to drop prices, given that they've had loads off the last couple of weeks anyway.

Just 'cos. How was your Christmas with Evie?

Hee, thank you!

It was fine. Se was a bit grumpy during the day but cheered right up in the evening when Steve was here. Had great fun with her presents. How was yours?

Pretty good! We spent Christmas day at my Dad's house, and we all had pieces of my husband's rum cake and then everyone had a looong nap. :)
