Day in review 25/12/10

I woke up at around 9am. I got up and made some toast and then went into the lounge and me and my dad watched a bit of The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas; it was pretty bad (3/10). My sister joined us in the lounge and we opened a couple of presents. My mum got me an ampersand book end, which is actually pretty cool (8/10) and Sex and the City 2 on DVD (1/10, but it made me lol so maybe 4/10). Then I gave my dog a bath, and when I was drying her she kept trying to hump the towel (0/10 for dog weirdness). Then I had a shower, got dressed, cleaned, and started helping my mum in the kitchen. All pretty standard christmas day stuff. My family show up at about 11.30, and we prepared food and sat around talking. More family showed up. We ate lunch, and I had way too much, naturally (2/10, but also 10/10 at the same time). We opened presents after lunch. I got cool tea stuff and underwear, socks and money. I also got an inane amount of candy etc. Then we had dessert, and I had some pavlova, trifle and a gingerbread lady (9/10 for yum in my tum). Sam calls me mid way through dessert and we talk for about 15 minutes; he got a slow cooker christmas (9/10 for easier access to slow cooked meats). At about 3.30pm we went to my grandma's house where my dad's side of the family were. I helped set up skype on my grandma's laptop and then we all talked to my aunty from Sydney. My cousins made me laugh a lot (10/10 for sweet as cousey bros). I felt my sister's baby kick for the first time, it was so strange and magical (10/10). We stayed there until about 7pm. When we got home we had leftovers and watched The Brothers Grimm, it was okay (7/10). Then I had an hour long skype date with Susie (see pictures below), we laughed, we cried, it was an emotional roller coaster ride (not really) (10/10). Afterwards I talked to Sam because he was having "girl issues", and I went to bed at 12:30am. Great day - 9/10.
