It feels like things are starting to get back on track now. The scare with my dad is settling down. It's not fixed, but he's been home for a while and they managed to pinpoint what was wrong. He's so stressed that he's developed what they call "dancing blood pressure". Basically it keeps going up and down. This occasionally causes a oxygen shortage in the brainstem which caused the attack he had. (At least that was the final version and since there wasn't an urgent call about the MRI results, it's probably that.) Getting my dad to stop stressing is another thing however. It's weird how much control your mind can have over your body, really.

Christmas was better than I expected even if it never did feel like 'Christmas'. My sis (the one in the US) showed up at the doorstep out of nowhere. She's been hiding that she was coming down for months now. *shakes fist at her* But it was good to have the entire family here and my sis brought a pile of gifts with her instead of clothes. I swear, I never saw so many gifts before.

One of the things she bought me was a warm whiskers' moose. It's so cute! And nice and warm! *loves it* And he smells like lavender. I also got a rip off calender with all of Bush's worst quotes so you can count down the days to his leaving office. It's got some hilarious stuff in it. It's also quite sad to see how frigging dumb the man is. And I got a new mp3 player that I'm paying half for, but it's so worth it. It's a Zen Creative Player and it is so shiny. I call him Mustang and I will love him forever and ever.

... And somehow I'm getting into Naruto.

*coughs*

It's good to not feel like I'm going to break down any second now. Just for a moment there it felt like everything sucked and it was going to keep sucking. It's not all over and there's a letter I still have to write and I'm doing my best to hide from it because I don't want it to be true. I'll write it, though.

This is my second year I've gotten that calendar. I love it to death.

Heeee, Naruto. It's a fun show, but omg, I cannot keep up with anime series that last more than 50 episodes.

Also, awesome that things are settling down. *hugs*

Ooh, my brother has a Zen, and it's really nice. I want an mp3 player! :P

Does your sister live in the United States, or is she going to school here, or what? I'm just curious.

Glad you had a good Christmas! I hope things get better with your dad.
