I don't know who is worse about giving me the puppy dog eyes when I'm cooking, my boyfriend or the actual dogs. Both here and in the dreams, I'm honestly not convinced he's not a golden retriever that somehow became human. And unlike some of you, there's actually nothing like that in our dreams. No science fiction, no magic. It's just who Tamaki is as a person.

I suppose all traditions have to end at some point. Next year I'll be working the month of October. But the opportunity to plan not one but two fabulous weddings with my boyfriend Felix? I couldn't pass it up. And the happy couple telling us we can make them as over the top as we'd like? Icing on the cake.

You don't mind that I said yes we'd do it do you?

Get in touch with Catherine about the cakes now. And reach out to her catering friend.

Well I know what I'll be needing to get through the day today - more coffee than is safe for anyone to have ever. I have an almost nonexistent relationship with my birth father but that doesn't mean I want him dead. Or that I want the knowledge from the dreams of watching him get killed by demons.

I'm not going to sleep any more tonight.

My mom wanted to talk today while I was shopping, so yes, I was one of those people who vid chat while shopping. I thought it was about work.

However as I'm looking at dresses and all she did was complain about the dark colors. Sorry mom, black is my color, even if you think it's not. I knew fight was brewing, so I started to randomly pretend to not hear her and that the video frozen.

I'm a horrible daughter, I know. However, my mom can be a bit much and I was in public.

Is anyone else over Christmas?


I think I just woke up grumpy today, ignore me.

It's always interesting watching someone else play video games when you're not playing it with them. I was busy playing with the dogs while watching Nico play GTA. Where he apparently owns a meth lab in game now. I'm.... so proud? Also it's snowing in his game, so I've been watching him kill snowballs with npcs.

I've been procrastinating hard on wrapping things. I learned from the plush I ordered for myself that wound up in someone's office and just had everything sent to Mom's house, except for her own present. It's all there waiting for me to open it and wrap it back up. So I probably should get on to that tomorrow.

I can take my mom in... very, very small doses. She's still my mom, I still love her. I just.... the longer I've been away from her the more I realized I'm not exactly my happiest when I'm with her. Still, I'm glad to talk to her on the phone for a little while, especially since it's the holidays. But I feel maybe half an hour is enough? Not two hours and her complaining my dad and brother have turned me against her when I tell her I need to get off the phone.

I'm thinking it's time to set her ringtone to silent. And I'll just call her when I want to talk.
