While I really love the holidays, I've never had to deal with them when my parents were apart. And it looks like it's going to be a bit of a messy situation. Thanksgiving was fine because dad had to work so we just spent it with mom. But now dad wants us to spend Christmas with him and to be perfectly honest, I'm not sure that I want to.
It's such a hard position to be in. I love both of my parents but I really think that my mom would keep our spirits up better. Not to say that I don't think my dad wants to make this Christmas special, but I doubt he's going to decorate or bake cookies, and that's the stuff I really look forward to. I know I am being selfish. Dad deserves to have a good holiday too... Man, this really sucks.
I guess I'll just let them fight it out and deal with whatever it is they throw at me. It's not like they'll listen to what I have to say anyhow. I think I'll just chill out and hang at A.J.'s place a lot in the next few weeks. She should be able to help me hold on to my sanity. Maybe we can plan a Christmas Special marathon. Rent a bunch of the classics, make popcorn strings for the Christmas tree and drink hot apple cider. Just like my 'rents used to do with us. I wonder if A.J. will think that's lame?
Haven't really talked to Kaelin lately but I'm hoping we'll be hittin' the Winter Formal together. Man, that kid is so hot. I can't even imagine what it'll be like if I get to walk into the dance with him. Jaws are sure to drop - especially if I beg mom to get that dress for me. It's just gorgeous. And, I'm not even a real girlie girl. Look at me planning something before I even know if I have a date... Better get on that.
Peace Out,
Sindy
