Breakdown!
So, partially due to the fact that I didn't sleep at all last night [not intentionally, I wanted to sleep, but... no. Just lay there until 6 when Mom knocked on the door to get me up], and partially due to stress from having a non-family member constantly around [Peggy, our friend from New Orleans who's been staying with us since the hurricane], I had the most spectacular meltdown today.
The end results were good; I compulsively cleaned my room and threw out half the clothes in my closet [by "threw out" I mean "stuffed into bags so Mom could sort through them for stuff she wanted, then Peggy could sort through, and whatever's left gets taken to the Welcome center"], and looked at paint chips to change the color of my room.
Of course, it wasn't really pretty while it was happening. I was home alone except for the doggehs, who went and hid in the kennel as I cleaned.
We also put all the ornaments on the tree today. And by "all" I mean "enough for many trees." Our tree is so gaudy and wonderful. *happy sigh* And Little Brother made chocolate chip cookies. Yum!

Our Christmas is not so much gaudy as completely unmatched. ^^ It works.

Spectacularly so. We've got this miniature [miniature--ha! it takes up almost a whole room!] village, and above it, on the fan dangle, are two angels. One looks, well, beautiful and angel-y. The other is something my brother made out of paper that looks... like... I can't even describe it.
Also, in the same village, we have random Star Wars action figures, and rubber Halloween bats, and a snowsnake, and so on.

That must be it. We all share brains! [In a totally non-zombiriffic way, of course.]

Why on earth did you have to get up at 6 am?

My brother was one of the readers in the Christmas pageant. We had to be at church by 8. Which means leaving by 7:30.
And then we got there, and it turned out they had posted the time wrong, and he didn't have to be there until 8:30. So I could have totally gotten at least thirty more minutes of non-sleep in, dangit!
And of course the pageant itself wasn't until 9:30. Coffee [three sugars, five creams] works wonders, I tell you what.
