So this year my family's Christmas spirit has been on the lacking side. Being the first Christmas since my grandma passed away, everyone is a little sad (Christmas was always held at her house) and the family is also split in half because of the feud between my mother and my aunt. And now just a few hours ago, my brother-in-law got a call from the hospital to tell him that his dad will probably die today. He's had cancer for a while now, and they were sure this week that he could go any day. Seems that today is that day. He's driving three hours north to try to be with him if he can, while my sister and my nephew are coming here for the not so festive Christmas Eve celebration. It's turning out to be a rather somber Christmas.
Also, for the first time in about ten years my mother has to work on Christmas day. So that means we are putting off our Christmas dinner until the 26th. At this point, we're pretty much just going through the motions of Christmas because ignoring it just seems sacrilegious or something. *sigh*
In any case, I hope the people on my flist who celebrate it have a much happier Christmas than me. :)
On an unrelated, and less dreary note, my sister is watching The Dark Crystal in the kitchen. (I love that movie) And as soon as I heard the name "Jen" for the boy Gelphling, I was imagining a J2 AU version of the movie, with Jensen as Jen and Jared as Kira, the actress who played Missouri as Olgra, and possibly Chad for the traitor Skeksi. (Spelling?) I'm telling you J2 has taken over my braaaaiiin.
