I'm sleep, nice and peaceful in my warm bed when my mom and aunt come in, rip the blanket off, and violently shake me for a minute and a half. "Wake up," they say. They start to laugh. Laugh?!?! Who the fuck would be laughing if they woke up to two very ugly women violently shaking their body?!?! Jesus H. Christ. My grandfather is here too. He's losing his mind. It's quite frustrating. With the whole family here, I'm not free to be normal Amanda; burping while reading the newspaper, people stealing my bathroom time, no where to sit. Great, the rest of the family just showed up. There goes any possibility of my life being somewhat quiet today. So my house will be a zoo for a few days. Dinner will be silent except for the occasional "How's school" or "Don't you have a boyfriend?" I'm eating then sprinting my way back to this tiny sanctuary.

CuriusBlue: are you proud that it's time to celebrate the only Protestant holiday?

Exactly a year ago today my ex James and I broke up. We saw each other last Saturday for awhile. Boy, that was emotional. Note to self: it's not good to cry in front of exes. It's hard for them to believe you when you're explaining something. We're seeing Tori together on the 17th.

What's a California Thanksgiving without a store bought turkey dinner and margaritas.
