Bald Jason's Musings

I got Mark out of bed with very little fuss, which I didn't expect since he hadn't slept much. We both got ready quickly, and I got him to work just about on time (while also stopping at McDonalds so he could have some breakfast). I went to Meijer and dropped off some prescriptions, bought some random things that only Meijer carries, plus a yellow x-mas themed sheet cake to take to my Gradma's. I went home after my prescriptions were filled, and watched a bit of Doctor Who before I went to bed. I slept well, though only about 4 hours.
When I woke up I felt rested. I got ready. Michael called and said he was being delayed, and just got directions from me, so that he could meet Mark & I at Grandma's. I thought I was running a bit late, but we arrived on time; slightly early even, though Michael arrived just before us.
So many cousins in such a small place! It was actually quite a bit of fun. The only blights on the occasion being Doug (my non-biological Father) not being there, and Jamie still being wenchy to me. Jamie's fiance Paul only said a few things to me, but it was still more than what he's said in the past, and it was appreciated. I mostly chatted with the Whites & former Whites. lol That's their sir name. Their family is kind of the most healthy of our bunch, and they've always been very welcoming to me, so it's always great to see them. People joked about me bringing in a new Mike, as we have several of those already. It was all in good fun.
Mike had to leave early to get to his mom's. We were there for maybe another hour, but everyone was clearing out fairly soon. It was great to see everyone, but I was tired, and it was nice when we got home. I very nearly went right to bed, and slept until about 12:30am Christmas Day. I called Mike as he'd left some voicemails on my phone letting me know he made it back ok. I called Mollie and wished her a Happy X-Mas. I know she had to work tonight, so I didn't really expect her to answer. Then I checked my e-mail, and started some snacks. When I'm done with this entry I'm either going to watch some old Doctor Who, or read some of my book.
I have to work today. I can dress casual today, and I bought some tinsle to wear around my neck. I work 1pm-5:30pm. It's possible that Chris will be coming back tonight to watch more Torchwood & the animated Who, but that hasn't been confirmed. I will be trying to find today's Doctor Who Christmas Special online once I get home, though it's possible that it won't be posted right away. We'll see. ;-0)
