Joyeux Noël or Merry Christmas!!!!
Whichever you prefer.
I hope yours was better than mine.
Oh Lord, that was epic. I'll remember this crappy Christmas.
You know, I like to plan things. Unfortunately, nothing goes like it was planned and I so hate that.
I'm alone so I can do what I want. It's not my first Christmas alone, my mom used to work or at Xmas eve or New Year's Eve, so each year (after I stopped going to Grandma's house), I was alone for one of the Eve. I don't care, at least, I can do the things I like.
I wanted to eat Japanese for my Christmas, but before that, I had to retrieve a cooler for my laptop at a store. I should have take me one hour, it took me 2. I'll spare you the details for that part.
After greeting a friend, I was heading to the restaurant. I didn't make a reservation but he's in a calm neighborhood, so I was sure to have a place. And I was going early, around 7pm. Yeah, 7pm is early for French people. 7, it's the aperitif, we eat around 8. So, I was going early because I planned a manga marathon for my Christmas night. I arrived at the restaurant and...it was closed. Not closed for the holidays, DEFINITELY CLOSED!!! It was opened last week, they could have told us!!!!
So, I got back home because I wanted Japanese and nothing else. But I didn't do the shopping. I mean, nothing special for a Christmas Eve. I eat a dish of pasta. Yeaaaahhh!!! That's a Christmas dinner!!!
But nevermind, I still had my manga marathon. And I put my divx in the divx player. As I'm alone, I've the big TV all for myself. First episode, after 15 minutes, the evil divx player died in front of me !!!!!!!!!!!! It tried to make it work during one hour. I had to open it with a screwdriver to get back my divx.
Well, I could have watch the anime on my laptop but it was Christmas dammit!!! I deserved the big tv screen!!!!!!!
So, I watched the tv and her crappy Christmas programs. Why the programs on Christmas are always crappy, it's a mystery. Well, I found Bettlejuice on a channel, so the first movie of the night wasn't crappy but I already seen it at least 10 times.
That was my Christmas Eve.
So, I really, really hope yours was much better.
