Merry Christmas!

Like the title says! For some reason I have actually woken up before my kids and I’m the only person stirring in the house β€” I have nothing to do but browse Tildes while I wait for the day to get started. What’s everyone’s plan today?

    Merry Christmas, Tildes!

    I don't really celebrate Christmas so I've been chilling out listening to old vinyls and watching a few films. I'm actually currently watching Hurry Up Tomorrow (The Weeknd film) but it's not the "it's so bad it's good" territory, it's just "it's terrible".

    I'm also planning to play some Cyberpunk 2077 later on. That, or just chilling out listening to music.

    I'm on for work this year. My job only gives us two shifts of one of three major holidays each year, in a forward rotation. Last year I was thanksgiving, this year I'm Christmas, next year I'll be new years, then it starts over. I'm a night shifter, but while I spent Christmas Eve at work last night, I was able to dip out an hour early and get home before my kids got up for presents. So that was nice! I'll be back tonight for day two of my work holiday tonight, hopefully it's as good as last night was!

    Merry Christmas all!

    We always stay at my parents Christmas Eve but this year my wife has the flu. We still spent the night together but she slept terribly. In the morning we open presents and have a Swedish tea ring, then drive to my in-laws. We have a second breakfast because we are hobbits, then open presents with my wife's family. My wife is now napping due to her poor sleep and I'm just watching my nephew play Stray while I wait for more family to show up this afternoon.

    Santa was kind to me this year with a lot of Steam gift cards, so I'm looking forward to buying a bunch of games I won't have time to play.

    Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! I had a meal with extended family and I'm catching up on my reading. I've had too many sweets this week but will go back to healthier eating when we return home.

    I don't have any plan for today. I live alone and wasn't intending to visit anyone so its just like any other day. Which is pretty great honestly.
