Finally, it comes down. Almost perfect.
First of all, Happy Holidays, everyone. I'm here, trying to pass the time, I'll make this entry fun for once and hope it doesn't get lost by accident like 10 minutes ago when my knee hit the frigging power button. BLS Holiday concert was good...(sigh - had this stuck in my head all day) besides that all I did that day was drown myself in hershey's kisses, and go to Brookline for NY's putting-smiles-on-people's-faces...still have to get
russiangitar02's ...but I know exactly what I want, just can't find them anywhere. Came home only to leave 10 minutes later to get grandparents from the airport, their plane was delayed a while, we were late as always anyway. ;-P More stress w/ them, why does time have to be relative at the wrong times?
Friday was good too....did nothing except go to sing Silent Night like always in Brookline, met some old "friends" from elementary school. One guy I used to go to school with's mother said she cried when she saw me, all "grown-up." Ha ha. Kinda. We had our 'Bescherung', aka, we do xmas the German way, with presents on the 24th. My grandparents brought so much stuff in a huge sack. Mostly clothes for my bro and some other nice *fizzy* surprizes.
Yup, holiday time at my house though, @ least this year, it seems like all we do is eat...Yesterday we had a nice turkey. Ha, we're cheap and get a big one AFTER Thanksgiving. Was good though, along with all the Stollen (delicious German holiday dessert), chocolate (loads), Quittenbrot (err...sweets from fruits from a tree in our place in Wustrow, Germany), cookies, Lebkuchen, etc etc etc... At least my dad and I also went running yesterday...AND I had my first driving lesson after that...sweet, no crashes. Drove around in little circles for like half and hour...Stick is hard...Man, I admire
hannka more and more...Spasibo...I'll learn though. The motor only died thrice. He. When I forgot to take out the gear...yeah. Then...more food and beginning of an artistic German movie, at 11:30 switched to SNL & from 12-2am, The Elegant Universe; soo cool....Mmmm, very-well explained, the graphics really helped. "There can not be two everywheres." *exactly* That was def. worth it.
Today....SNOW when I woke up, aka no driving lessons today, BUT sledding lessons for my bro. Very cute w/ him outside on our sno-tube, on the street...not too many cars. ;-D Sitting around, lots of piano and guitar. My grandma is always like, yeah, you don't have to help, just sit down and play. That makes me not want to play AT ALL. Christ, it's for myself 1st and foremost... Now I have time though. She's so ambitious w/ my bro, wants to train him this week, wtf!!!? He's 17 months old for god's sake. Whatever, not my business. As long as she entertains him and I don't have to. Also watched hilarious - one of my favs - DRS - ("welcome to hell," "Lady Fannie of Omaha!!!") which reminds me, finally got a new DVD player...which we'll prolly return to get the one for the same price that plays ALL regions instead of just 1,3 and 4. So we can watch the Das Boot DVD we got from my uncle.
Tomorrow....go cream-cheese shopping, lol...for the mango-cheesecake for my grandma's bday on the 29th. Register meeting soon...then, finally, NYs...sigh, I wonder how champagne and coffee mix??? ;-P I need my dose of guitar, PLEASE. Not getting much sleep, surprisingly...damn it's late...listening to Dr. Carroll's CD, oops....I hope it skipped before I got it...Lol. Les Comediens...sigh.
I think I should sleep... wish I were here. Austria 2006 is right.
Night....'dream sweetly of sour pickles'
