Well, Merry Christmas to everyone! I know that most of the people that read this will already have had their Christmas, but my Christmas is still going for a few hours yet before I head to bed.

Today was just another day in the sequence of family gatherings, really. It started off with Anastasia and I going to see her Aunt Connie and Uncle Vince, along with their two children, Trinity and Vincent. The whole Vincent thing is a tradition – Vince is number four, and his son is the fifth. They have four generations of Vincents still alive, yikes. Anyway. Food, conversation, Shrek Monopoly Junior – this visit had it all! They loved their presents we got them (a lot of candy, a movie voucher for Vincent and a Princess Dance set-thing for Trinity).

From there we went to Priscilla’s house, where I was told there would be more relations and another meal. However, instead I found a lot of box-lifting and stacking and moving. Luckily I was ok with that. ^^ Anyway, we got presents as well (I got a nice warm cashmere scarf, a shirt and some more ginger candy that I like). The reason, it turns out, that the relations weren’t there was that they were all sick. Given that Anastasia and I have already had the sick-thing, I think we must’ve just had it early.

After that we came back to the house to sit down since we were both a bit out of it after all the cleaning up at Priscilla’s. We had a little bit of food after a while and then curled up and watched that traditional Christmas movie, Wing Commander. Not a hugely eventful Christmas Day, but this ‘Christmas’ has dragged out over three days already.

Apart from the stuff from Priscilla, I got manga, a calendar, some money, a small dragon, a book, a melancholy Buddha and a scarf.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all… er… Happy Boxing Day.
