already made my chinese food reservation

I am not doing this again.  Last time we opted for Chinese, I figured it would be impossible to get a seat, so I called ahead for take out.  It took me like 30 minutes to get from the doorway to the counter...which is literally two steps away from the door.  Then another 20 minutes to pay for my food and leave.  The place had no waiters and it appeared that the owner's kids were doing that job instead.
:dizzy 

Plan to pick something up today instead.  There's a place that sells high quality pre-made foods I want to hit up, but with my luck, they'll be closed.   :-\  If that's the case, will make my own Vietnamese-style pork rice paper rolls. 

In short, Xmas

I usually go with eating at the restaurant cause there's something special to me about hanging out with a bunch of Jews on Xmas. I guess it feels nostalgic in a way.

Maybe I'll slip something in a card and send it over to you. You've been pretty good this year, and lord knows Santa Bz wants to send you a package.

Aside from family obligations this is p much the joy of christmas for adults. No work, just being a lazy fuck and enjoying guilt-free indulgence in unhealthy food and booze.

Kinda sorta.  It's the Amazon store, which picks and chooses certain apps from the Google Play store to promote and distribute.  You cannot use the full-on Google Play store on the Kindle devices without some trickery.

damn. might risk asking her to trade it in. I just got a note 4 which has a screen that's almost the same size, and I'm pretty sure it has better specs than the fire.

We hosted my mom's side of the family last night at our house. My Dad and I got a bunch of growlers and are known as the "beer people" in the family. My garage is basically a beer cellar. My uncle kept trying to sneak his 18-year son beer all night long. I finally pulled him aside and told him "I'd really appreciate it if you didn't give ____ beer. I know he's in college and is probably drinking regularly, but this is my house and I'd rather not be supplying a minor with alcohol." He was pretty caught off guard and said "Oh, he's not driving." I don't care. Just because I'm a huge beer nerd doesn't mean I support underage drinking. Sheeeeiit.

Other than that, everyone had a great time.

My parents stayed here last night and are doing Christmas day with my wife, daughter and I. Eggs benedict and coffee this morning, gonna watch Fantastic Mr. Fox with the kiddo and then The Interview after she goes to bed. Lots of beer and etoufee for dinner tonight. :rock

Got to NO yesterday and it is absolutely beautiful. I've lived in multiple states in the south, and I never realized just how rich New Orleans' culture was. It's refreshing to have a city in the south whose history and culture moves beyond "WE HAD SLAVES". The beautiful architecture, even the swamps had a hint of grace not seen in Houston. It also has natural beauty. I could definitely live here.

Meeting my boyfriends family was both scary and exciting. I've really gotten off well with his mom and sister in particular. They accepted me, and while I realize it's partly/mostly because they don't know I'm trans, it's still a relief. Here in NO I don't know anyone, unlike in Houston. Unlike in Houston where everyone I know knows my trans status, I'm treated like a woman without pretense. I get a sample of that when I'm out at home and go to restaurants or the store, but not with people I fraternize with. Here they don't know I'm trans, don't think I'm trans, and won't know I'm trans, and it's really freeing. It gives me a sense of ease that's absent, and I can finally live as a woman without judgement from people I know. It gives me a lot of confidence I've done this transition thing right and that moving to LA or anywhere else really, is the right decision.

Today we went to brunch at IHOP, which was the whole family - only  9 people including me. This was a big thing even though it was a brunch because I had to impress my boyfriends family, especially his mom. Then we back home, and cooked. The ladies mostly cooked so I helped. Despite my misgivings they did nothing to not include me into every part of their Christmas. :heart

Christmas is almost over and I have never felt the emotions I feel towards my boyfriend right now. The way he has supported me and backed me, wanting me to meet the family that raised such an amazing person means a lot to me. I am definitely in love.

You ruined Christmas for your adult cousin who can vote and die for your country, and you think this is something you should share with us?

Okay, Boogie.

Definitely. I'm the one who takes the fall for supplying a minor with alcohol if he gets caught or something. I'm not getting involved in that shit. If someone else wants to host and give minors booze that's great. Once you're a homeowner, father and/or a public employee you might think differently.

And he's far from being an adult. Dude was trying to tell my 85-year old grandma about specific cards in Cards Against Humanity, and then decided to shit all over "regular" kids in college who didn't go to his prestigious artisan high school.

Plus he got lots of beer before I found out and cut him off.

And now we can return to good time sarcastic homoerotic Taco Bell sidehuggin' love.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! I LOVE MOST OF YOU.

I agree with gundam. When I was 18 I was allowed to drink at family activities but it was like one glass of wine and nothing more. I never got drunk at family activities and I think it is in poor taste allowing a minor to do so even if age is a number here. Many researchers say underage drinking and weed smoking can lead to under development, so comparing it to signing up for war seems disengenous given we know th realities of war, but often treat alcohol like it ain't no thang. At a young age, he should not be prodded, especially from his father, that alcohol is completely okay without moderation. For an 18 year old, one beer is fine.

Interesting Xmas today. A cousin of mine, who we have all been concerned about, has now been sober since thanksgiving. My extended family is not an easy group to  avoid drinking with, but he did it and I'm extremely proud of him. I'll expect big things from him in the future if he sticks with it. Hes also such a happier and more confident person now that he isn't living to drink.

I wasn't really planning on buying gifts or doing much of anything, since my family doesn't really do Christmas outside of a small family dinner now. But I went to Barnes And Noble yesterday to buy Homeland S1 for my dad since he's into that stuff, and in the process I kept running into books that my uncle, who died earlier this year, loved. Dracula, The Club Dumas, Roman history shit, etc...it was such a surreal experience that I decided to buy a bunch of his favorite books and give them to my family. Basically all the shit we'd talk about at every family event, that no one else was really interested in. I gave Dracula to my mom, The Club Dumas to my dad, a James Bond book (Dr. No) to another uncle, etc. The feels...

you can let your 18 year old drink all they want at your own place.  sneaking them alcohol at someone else's place is fucked up because of legal liability shit for the host.

but man, the father is the real issue to me. If you say "these are the rules in my house, and they happen to be the rules in the state/country" he should respect that. jeez

My cousin was fine with it, and I think my Uncle was too. I just don't think he expected it out of me, since I'll gladly talk beer with anyone who asks. :lol

Never remember this being an issue at our family gatherings. I guess because most of my family aren't big drinkers.

My dad, uncles and male, often underage, cousins were too busy getting high after dinner to remember to booze it up. :mynicca

Fucking hippies.

It's never been an issue at our gatherings. Ever. A big factor is that my Aunt and Uncle have always been super career focused and out of touch with the lives of their kids, and are now super eager to just be their buddies now that they've moved out and are in college.

im totally down with family weed smoking. I got high with my cousin on shitty Florida weed last time I was there. That was an interesting bonding experience. Glad my grandma didn't smell it on either of us when we got back  :lol

Eh, kiddo has plenty of drinking ahead of him.

Leave getting sloppy drunk on Christmas to the adults so they can forget their dreams and unrealistic expectations.  :brazilcry

Holy fuck, not only did one person agree with Gundam, but like four people did?

Wtf is wrong with this place?  :mindblown

I think you're having a hard time equating "my opinion of the legal drinking age" with "I don't want to be liable as a homeowner, relative, father to a young child, and government employee if an 18 year old drinks too much and does something stupid" because, you know, 18 year olds don't have a history of drinking too much and then doing something stupid or whatever.

HERP A FUCKING DERP GLEN

Merry Xmas!

Oregon law basically says parents can give their children alcohol whenever they damn well please :pimp

Pretty sure it's the same in Washington too, so not illegal.

drove home and spent like 2 hours sitting awkwardly around people i barely see anymore. going back home kinda makes me feel bummed a little. not being around the people necessarily, but the actual fact that i'm back there where i left.
