we had soda! and pie!
happy birthday to my dad! but wait, what's this? just what is li'l teen's loading into the ol' civic? oh yeah! presents for me! I *heart* presents!
Not only did I get to leave work early ( a joy in and of itself, I assure you) but I also managed to swipe:
*An electric rock music guitar (black and white!)
*A DOD ice-it III amp with twanger, grunge, and waa (?)
*An Astro-boy T-shirt
*Cute Capri pants
*Key chain
* $50.00 from t-shirts i sold
*1 box take-away chinese food
pretty sweet deal for like, half a day's work. and totally worth the questionable take-out chinese food stomach ache all the way home from Red Deer. and i must say, the family was strangely well behaved this time- no drunken accidents (admittedly, mostly because uncle Lar couldn't get his motornike running...) or angsty sibling rivalry! a delightful change from the norm, though, strangely, a little unfulfilling. one comes to expect certain lows from one's family, after all. ah well, there's still the wedding part in september, i'm sure there will be enough mayhem and angst to make up for it.

by lows do you refer to an inability to stand up at christmas?
