the good, the bad, and the totally random

THE GOOD:

1. OMFG I GOT ACCEPTED TO A COLLEGE!!!! Like, a real, actual college. With a SCHOLARSHIP, no less. WOO!!!! I am like, totally FREAKING OUT!!!!! I've been randomly hugging people (and cats) all day. I even hugged my little brother. That can be lethal.

2. My papi and I did our Christmas decorating at his house today. It was great fun. We now have our lovely lights all strung about the living room and our prettiful little tree to put gifts under. Yay!

3. I got a new avatar!!! Hooray!!! It rocks my freaking socks!

THE BAD:

1. My mother is going crazy. Let me explain: As I may have mentioned before, my relatives need to STOP EFFING DYING!!!!!! We went to ANOTHER funeral on Friday, this one for my great-grandma. That makes three this year---my grandpa, my aunt, and now my great-grandma---and these were all CLOSE relatives. My mummy dear has begun having nasty reactions to her millions of prescription medications. We're nose-diving into debt, and add to that next year I'll be off to some expensive college. She and John broke up, but he's still hanging around and I have no effing idea what's going on there, but whatever it is, I'm betting it's stressful. But yeah, all that plus she's a psycho-OCD-totally uptight person to begin with, and I think she's finally going over the edge. She came home the other night and got quite tipsy; my mummy never drinks that much. I found a cigarette in her car. A CIGARETTE. My mother is a respiratory therapist. She is the last person on the face of the planet who would ever smoke. And yet there it was. She's going to this shrink person, but I really don't see that it's helping. She's starting to scare me. Ack.

2. I am never putting up Christmas decorations with my mummy again. She is so BOSSY! ARGH! I know, I know, I should be nice to her, seeing as how I think she's losing her marbles, but she was having a GOOD day today, so I thought we could get along long enough to get the effing Christmas tree put up---yeah right. We spent 2.5 hours just trying to arrange the furniture so we had a place to put it. I could've done it in ten minutes, had it been just me, but NO, we can't decide where to put stuff and THEN move it, we have to move it six dozen times to see how it all looks first---AAARRRGGHHH!!! Long story short, the tree is up but still bare, and I'm not sure my mummy dearest and I are on speaking terms just now.

THE TOTALLY RANDOM:

1. Mi papi and I went out for lunch and had Mexican and it was delicious.

2. The weather is insane. First it's thirty degrees and all snowy and winter-esque, and then it's fifty degrees and rainy. WTF?!!?! Stupid weather.

3. The Bears beat Tampa Bay, but it was really kind of sad, not a very good game. But hey, to (severely) paraphrase our good friend Dr. Seuss, a *win* is a *win* no matter how small!

Alrighty well I must be off to beddy-bye now. Later!
