cornerofmadnessSo far the holidays have been interesting. Because my sister in law only had yesterday off to spend with the family we did the gift thing before mass. I made out like a bandit. A digital camera (I'll never figure this out), several Buffy and Angel dvd sets, Lost Boys and Ghostbusters (thanks Evil little dog), Duran Duran's greatest hits and Anna Nalick (not to mention the Fullmetal Alchemist stuff I bought myself), and my brother got me a copy of Joseph's Campbell's Hero with a Thousand Faces and several other things I'm forgetting, not to mention the cash.
We polished off an entire bottle of Kaluah and vodka as White Russians. Hey, I figured Mass would be more entertaining drunk. Apparently so did the priest since he called me earlier in the day to have me or mom make sure he was 'wake' for midnight mass. So now I'm on drunk priest patrol. Explain how I'm responsible for getting this man ready? He was toasted. The choir was...apparently high. We blew a fuse and the whole altar went dark. At one point during the mass, my brother reached for the song book and his coat sleeve caught on his wife's shirt. Let's just my my sister in law has E cups and leave it at that. Well he hit her shirt just right, the buttons popped and she's there with her boobs hanging out in mass. We had to fix the church before going home.
Today we went to my aunt and uncle's. He has all sort of gourmet food connections. There was ham, and brie, crab and shrimp and various hor's d'overs. I got more cash and gourmet nuts. I drank a bottle of tequila. Well, premixed strawberry margarita mix so I had to cut the sweetness with an extra shot of jose cuervo gold in each glass. We taught my 7 & 13 year old cousins how to play blackjack and 5 card draw poker and some kind of gambling dice game. Happy Christmas Italian style....
