Just tipped $20 on a $26 tab. Feels good. GF's family had a tradition for a while of going to Sharis and tipping $100 cash.

Working 11p-8a myself. Works for me, I never sleep Christmas eve anyways.

Spent the afternoon with the gf at my parents. Both my bros bring their families over so it gets pretty loud with all the kids and all. This year I did great because all the kids loved what I got them. My one sister in law wasn't so happy about the marshmallow gun though. lol

Then we came back home and we exchanged gifts with each other. I got her a bunch of random things, but we both ended up giving each other a box of k cups so now we have 222 to keep us stocked up for awhile. Once she opened the diamond necklace it made her cry.

Now she left to head to her parents house with the dogs so I is alone for xmas eve. Ohh well. Now I shall use the new bubbler my bro got me and maybe pwn some **** on MW3.

Happy Holidays to everyone!!

Whether ya like holidays or not it still sucks sitting around bored alone.
Glad I'm not the only one sitting here with a nice buzz.... watching "A Christmas Story".... Just like every other year!

Tomorrow is dinner with the GF's family and putting the Miata away for the winter....... Merry Christmas to me! :(

considering a significant portion of this nation's marijuana is actually grown in national parks... I would think not!
