Normally this time of year I'm all about Family. I think Christmas should be about family, this whole "shop more if you really love them" attitude has to go though, just spending time with the family can be nice (even if you can only do it for a short period of time). This year was no different, I got to go on a whirlwind tour though 3 cities in 4 days and visited a ton of family, and it was good to see them all again.
What really got me this year was my friends. I'm very lucky to have a group so awesome. From my roomates, to the people I see regularily, and those who are farther away and I don't see enough, they are all great. This year I was extremely surprised by a group of them who bought me a fantastic present, and it really makes me happy. I was really glad that a bunch of my friends were able to make it up for a New Years party that our house threw, there was the usual assortment of booze, champagne (gotta love sabreing the end off with a butterknife), kissing, hugging and lots of photos (I'll try and put a bunch up tonight). It was a ton of fun to hang out with everyone, so if you were there, thank you! And if you weren't I wish you had been!
I also just had a birthday as many of you noticed (holy crap I'm 28 now?!) and even though I worked for most of my birthday due to a broken server here in the office, a bunch of us got together and played some Xbox 360 on the projector here (nothing quite like a 100" screen) and I had a few extrememly stiff drinks (after a 34 hour shift, you might too) and then we went to dusty's for a few more beers. Let me tell you that a with no dinner and no sleep I get pretty drunk pretty easy. Good times! Now we might have to do it again tonight with some nachos at Merlins and some beers at Garfs.
