In My Own Little World!

Well Christmas is gone and the New Year is upon is. Now all the stores are starting there "After Christmas" sales and the masses are flocking to them with mouths agape and exchanges in hand ready to brave the wandering lines of returns and grouchy clerks. Well not me! I got everything i wished for and more. i got to spend time with my family and got a few gifts as a bonus.

This Christmas i believe I was given a task. My sister in law is very troubled. She has no concept of family or love or care for the feelings of others. At Christmas she stated that she "wanted to just hand out everyone's gifts, let them go to there respective corners and then they can all open them in peace and tell everyone Merry Christmas and move on, because lets face it. Christmas is all about getting gifts!"

I could have strangled her. I wanted to lash out but i refrained myself. I tried to patiently tell her that this is not true and she was deluding herself if she thought that this is the way things are or will be. She was asked why she wanted to do this and her reply was " I don't want people staring at me while I open gifts, that way they dot see the disappointment on my face when I don't like it". That pretty much put me on tilt. It was nice to know that she tried to get Matt and Jude to do the same but they wouldn't allow it either. I made sure that she opened her presents last so that everyone could watch. What can I say, I'm just an ass I guess.

I am happy that the New Year is coming. I wish I could find a new job to go with this new year and I hope that the last interview I went to will pan out. I really want this job but I am concerned about the aptitude test. I don't test very well. If I don't get this one then I will continue looking and hopefully I will get one that is good. I want a place that i can make a career at. I am tired of these "jobs", I want to find a place to retire from. Its so hard because for the first time in my life, I am over qualified for most things. I have never had this problem and never thought I would.

I guess I will just have to wait and see what the new year brings. With any luck i will win the lottery and will not have to worry about it. I can take care of my family, invest and do everything that I always wanted.

Happy New year to all.
