happy new...

hello! i bet some of you think i might have fallen off the face of the earth (amazingly, i wasn't on the computer for a WHOLE WEEK! miracle!). i was just in louisiana. though i think they are pretty much off the face of the earth... here are a few highlights from christmas eve (we'll get to the rest later):

- we called my aunt on various cell phones 101 times because she and her husband couldn't come down from michigan
- my cousin (one of 10) was singing falise blah-blah-blah with his dad (my godfather. he's so weird)
- my cousin (oldest) is getting married and brought his fiancé to the get-together... not a good idea. let's just say that she has pretty big boobs, and my dad and my uncles (some of you know how my dad is...) kept making jokes and stuff. not really mean, just embarrasing. it was pretty funny, especially because her family is really small and conservative (mine is big and usually drunk this time of year).
- the parents all got pretty happy right before dinner. this is probably due to the fact that my oldest cousin (his name is ted, he was mentioned earlier) kept putting a whole bunch of kaloua and vodka in everybody's drink. i have no idea why they told him to mix them.
- dinner only lasted about 10 minutes total. then we all ran around and were crazy until the moms (and ted... hehehe) finished washing the dishes. {as a side note; my aunt, ted's mom, hides pots and plates and a chicken-head-shaped spoon holder in odd places, this year she got ted to do it because she was in michigan. so he hid a whole bunch of stuff. including a HUGE pot lid, which was found at 4 in the morning by my grandmother, who was sleeping on it. it was under her mattress.}
- my mom got all the kids these really cool $5 stunt remote control car things. only problem was, all were controlled on the same frequency. and there are ten of us, so do the math, and you have one person controlling 10 cars, then the cars go crazy and another person has control. the sad thing was, it took all my cousins about half an hour to figure out that they weren't in control of their own car for very long.
- i had to much food and candy, i think i was too hyper to remember the rest.

ok so that's the basics. only the basics. you want more, ask me at school. *shudder* remember, we still have a week!
for christmas? no. no playstation2 (dang). but i did get final fantasy tactics advanced for the gba. pretty fun! i've played it for almost thirty hours. and i've had it for less than a week. sad, i know. i also got a pencil sharpener, probably because i keep taking my moms. i also got... a stuffed monkey and some really really scary looking pony-tail holders. they're those little girl kinds with the poofs and the beads and stars and what-not. sadly, i also got matching sparkly wavy headbands with plastic stars on them. it's really scary.

ok, i'm going to stop boring you and go put away all my stuff. hope you had a nice holiday, and that you have a happy new year. unfortunately, i know nothing of plans with my friends, so i'll probably be here. call if you want to do something. you knwo my number. or at least it's in the directory. if you don't have one, call and get it from somebody who does. or something. i dunno. you figure it out. see yall... when i see ya.

day.
