Why is it that at 28, my family still does christmas as if my brothers and I are still kids? around ten, we all gathered around the tree to open presents. I got a shirt, a pair of pants, a board game (settlers of Catan), a book I've never heard of, a sushi rolling set(?), and for some reason a deepfryer. haha. Now Iv'e been going to the gym every day, and I'm getting in pretty good shape, so to that one I had to say "Really?"
After we go to bed, they still sneak downstairs and place a couple of presents under the tree. From Santa. I did make a painting for my mom. of a rooster. she didnt cry, but the reaction was still pretty great. Some of you might know shes been asking me to paint her something for years and I never do it. So now I'm the favorite son again. For now anyway.
Now I'm watching District nine on my Stepdad's plasma. It's really great. With the exception of Avatar I don't think there's another movie that's so successfully reinvented scifi. and on a rediculously low budget. If you haven't seen it, I'd recommend giving it a shot. It's the first movie in which I've seen truly believable emotion from computer generated characters. and unlike most movies I think the Shaky camera adds to the overall feel of the movie. It's brutal and despite the subject matter and budget, feels real. check it out.
on that note, I'm off. I think I hear Santa coming...
