Still not quite sure. Likely gonna be with my girlfriend for at least some of it, probably with family for dinner and stuff... Meh.
Christmas this year really doesn't seem all that exciting to me. Maybe it's because I already know what I'm getting, and I already know that I'm not getting it until after Christmas (a Sony Ericsson k800i cell phone. yeah, I'm weird. but my current phone is acting stupid with random resets, and that phone is spiffy. so might as well.)
But yeah. Meh on my part.

I live in Philly, of course.
Will be home for dinner with the family, probably watching the Eagles-Cowboys game after we eat.
Not really concerned with any presents I may get, but then, my needs are simple...

LOL...
It's a football thing. Uh, American football...
And, unlike playing make-believe violence in video games, this real violence is sanctioned and approved of by everyone...
:confused:
Go figure.
Go Eagles!!!
E-A-G-L-E-S, Eagles!!!
or, as they are commonly called in the Philly dialect - Go Iggles.:cool:

American Football is more tactical than rugby.

Probably going to be somewhere doing something. Diva isn't being too precise about what her familly does for Chrismas, so...
I just hope I'm not the main course.

In that case, I'll post a timeline...
Now - Christmas Eve: Enjoying not having to hear people bitch on the phone, and will finish wrapping presents with the "help" of a three-month-old cat. Consumption of Bailey's is highly possible.
Christmas Eve: Probably going to hang out with parents, then going to my aunt's house to snag free foodz and hang out with my dad's side of the family. Once the "Prozac Queen" (one of my cousins) and her spawn arrives, most of my immediate family will say "Oh good heavens! Look at the time!" and gtfo.
Christmas Day: Exchanging pressies here (again, with the "help" of the cat), then going to parents' house to spend the day with said immediate family. Mom says we're having lasagna for dinner, as she is tired of the usual turkey/ham deal. Video games and possibly tasty beverages will be used at this time.
New Year's Eve weekend: Mom's side of the family will be having a late Christmas gathering. Drama and mild interrogation will probably occur, thus car keys will be at the ready.

I've heard that it's very entertaining when a cat steals your Baileys.

As small as he is, that would not be a good idea.

the story I heard was about a full-grown cat that lapped up an entire shot that was left out during a smoke break.

More than likely at home, watching my Tundercats and Voltron DVD's if I get them for Christmas, Playing a little bit of DDO. But who knows, more than likelY I will be going nuts at my grandma's house as I am asked to do tech support on my grandpa's computer trying not to die as I try to get virus's off his computer and not want to poke my eyes out at the porn sites he has saved under his favorites. I mean there is normal porn then there is the sick **** he looks at.

Ah the joys of being technically 1337 and having to suffer the curse of the elderly! If I have to explain to my grandfather how a digital camera works one more time...

I am the only one in my family who knows **** about computers, ok the only one who is not miles away or in another state. Most of my family are drunks, there are maybe three us who are nerds Me, My Uncle, and My Grandfather(Mom's Dad) the rest of them are either too stuborn or too drunk to learn how to do anything other than look at porn on the internet.

Saturday is dinner with friends for gift exchange.
Christmas Eve - I'm not sure yet, I haven't established new traditions in the 2 years since my grandmother died so this one is still in Limbo.
Christmas - Gifts and dinner with the family, will endure until I get too bored. Then I'm planning on heading over to a friend's place for Anti-Christmas. That and running his parents off if they have remained until late afternoon or evening.

That's why the coaches are the ones who develop plays and tell the players which ones to run.

Coaches are RL Pokemon trainers.
Coach: Bret Farve, Hail mary pass now!
Bret Farve: *throws the ball* Bret Farve!

Well, since more and more college football players are getting into trouble at their universities (i.e. altering transcripts to get accepted like at my school), it's difficult for teams to draft good athletes. The NFL has decided to let genetic engineers create "super-players." However, with Bush's bans on cloning and stem cell research, these scientists have been forced to make due with less than premium materials. Cowboys have been losing their land due to the poor economy, so they have to sell their genes to make up for the loss. Plus, they get to meet the Cowboys' cheerleaders. Eagles are no longer extinct, so the engineers who work for Philadelphia usually send an intern out into the wilderness to track one down.
Eve - At home, and most of my immediate family will be coming over. And everyone's going to enjoy playing with my brother's Wii.
Day - At my aunts house, probably bored out of my mind.

I know the stubborn type gawd wont do anything until they absolutely have to do it....instead of buying my friend acouple parts for his computer its almost worth it just to buy a computer for him just to save the hassle of him not wanting to install it >>
