X-Mas Time?

It's 2:42 pm, and I just woke up just a little bit ago. I got off at about about 1 am last night and Target and met up with Tony in Uptown, where he was at his friend's house. It was his last night in town for today he left home for Pittsburgh. I didn't think we were going to be there too long, for he had to be at the airport around 8, but we didn't leave his friend's place until around 3:30. We ran to his place in downtown to get some things and then came back to Uptown to his uncle Mark's place. Tony was dead tired and was falling asleep on me just on the car ride. And then while he laid in bed, he had me go through his laundry and decide what he should bring. Tony got about an hour of sleep, while I got about 20 minutues worth. When the alarm went off, I had to shake and yell at him to wake up and then had to literally drag him out of bed to go take a shower.
So yeah, I got back from the airport and went to bed.

I'm not going home for X-Mas this year, which is how it was last year. But at least last year I was able to go home before AND after X-Mas to celebrate. At the beginning of December, a notice went up at Target that said no more time off would be granted for 16th Dec - 1st Jan. So there you go. I told my "Pa" that if I were able to get a couple days off then I might come down, but the schedule has not been so kind.
Oh well, I'll celebrate in January I suppose.

I've told a couple people to call me over the break; guess I'll see what happens with that.... I did get invited to an X-mas party for "people who have nowhere to go" by a guy that works overnight at Target. Heh...yeah, that would be interesting. Imagine: a naive 19-year old amongst beer drinking 30-year olds. Oh yes, I WILL fit right in. : )
