Merry Christmas to you too.
I had already been skipping out on Christmas celebrations for the past decade, but this year I alienated myself from my family completely, so I have nowhere to go and no phone calls to expect. I'm hoping for zero texts
. I will be spending the weekend with my partner at home. we got a fake tree for inside and lights outside for the first (and probably only) time ever. I don't expect to be around next Christmas... the decorations make me happy. we bought a bunch of gifts for each other and I have been really bitchy about having to wait to open them, because I know what some of them are, and would use them right away/a lot, and it feels bad that we spent money weeks ago for stuff that I will not be alive to use for very long. We've been sick all week so we haven't picked up Christmas dinner yet, or driven around to look at all the lights. The weather is terrible enough that I don't want to go out tonight, and dread grocery shopping tomorrow.
