sunnydee123 0 #1 November 24, 2004 Don't you just hate when you start getting all giggly and festive for the holidays, just doing the happy dance around while you plan dinners and presents and stuff for all the people you love...and then one of those ASSHOLES you love calls and all hell breaks loose. So much for the F'N FESTIVE mood you were in. Because THEY are slackers and want a pity party and want everything to revolve around them because they SUCK and don't make life better for THEMSELVES, they expect YOU to become in the shitty mood they are in. Don't you just hate when that happens? I look forward to this time of year, ALL FRIGIN YEAR and then that one shitty phone call puts a damper on the WHOLE DAMN THING. Well I'm not letting that happen. I'm going to keep singing Jingle Frigin Bells and dancing around in my candy cane underware, maybe even with a Santa hat and if they don't like it they can just BITE ME! Hell - who needs family at the holidays? It's over rated anyway right? How about we just go to frigin Alaska and sip some hot chocolate in an igloo with some eskimos? You game for that? OK..........rant is over..............Happy Thanksgiving everyone. May none of your family members send you into a tissy like this Dreams become reality, one choice at a time...

boinky 0 #23 November 26, 2004 Man....I can SO relate to this subject. I was stuck in a tiny house with 22 other people, trying to "Do The Right Thing." Did most of the cooking, to which everyone had some negative opinion. Listened to my mom bitch about how I prepared everything. If she didn't like the way I did it, she could have DONE IT HER FREAKIN' SELF!!! My bitch of a sister refused to come, trying to make me feel guilty because I didn't come and visit her a few weeks ago in Jacksonville when I was driving back from WWR camp in Lake Wales, for God's sake. Put up with everyone griping about my obsession with skydiving/CRW. How I wasn't around for Thanksgiving last year because I was in Lake Wales for the 70-Way World Record, helping out. And how, next year, I plan on being there for the 81-way! "Where's your sense of family committment. You have become so self-serving." Screw them. If they can't appreciate me, my goals, dedication and effort to still try and make them happy, I'll go back to my friends and make myself happy instead. SO THERE!!! Nina P.S. The good news is, ONLY 29 MORE DAYS 'TIL CHRISTMAS!Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts? (RIP Buzz) Yep, you're a postwhore-billyvance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deuce 1 #24 November 26, 2004 I hope your holiday surprised you by being fun like mine was. My mom had our next door neighbors over from 30 years ago and her new boyfriend, and my inlaws were there. Mom was nice enough to do it at her house. The neighbors and the boyfriend watched the DZ.com Holiday Boogie 2003 DVD and asked nice questions. I was in my manic comic mode so we were all laughing, my mom, feared that at any moment I was going to drop an "F-bomb". I expected tension and wierdness but I won, and we all had a nice time. I hope you all did too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites sunnydee123 0 #25 November 26, 2004 Actually...it ended up being ok after the pre-bullshit. No drama, good conversation and yummy food. It was one of the better ones.....so glad I gave everyone a chance to vent or make suggestions to NOT make it crappy. Yo B - I think I could be VERY game for the 3rd week in Jan. mountain party if there is room for one more Birthday is 1/23 so it could almost be a birthday celebration too. Keep me posted for sure! And ya know what else I did to make me in a good mood - I took my bonus I just got, stood in line at 5am and bought my 2 nephews each a bike for Christmas. I bet I am gonna win for the best present this year ...........It's funny how thinking about making someone else happy can make me so happy...... Hugs everyone.....no longer grouchy Dreams become reality, one choice at a time...
