Tonight was the annual CHRISTMAS DINNER AT THE VICKERS!!!
For those of you who don't know, Christmas dinner is something that has happened every year probably since my Junior year of high school.
It is a gathering at my house within a few days of Christmas where all of my friends gather and bring Christmas foods (in the style of a potluck) to a turkey dinner.
We all get dressed up.
Mom sets the table formally.
We enjoy an extremely hardy meal.
Play holiday charades.
And have a gift exchange.
This year was no different.
Great food, great friends, carols around the piano (no. seriously. we did for like, 20min.), and good times.
This year (as she has been wont to do recently) Mom wrote us some new cards for our game of Christmas Charades, as we've been playing off the same cards for some 6 or 7 odd years.
The best one was when Alex drew 'The Governor of Syria'.
SERIOUSLY?!
'The Governor of Syria'?!?!?!!!!
How do you 'charades' that?!
It was pretty hilarious, but Alex was determined.
After plowing through the new homemade batch we generally pull out the original holiday charades cards and give them a go.
This is always really fun because at this point, we have the cards memorized.
It's just a matter of being the first person to shout it.
Sometimes turns only last a few seconds.
=D
This year in the gift exchange gifts were pretty good, some random, some awesome, some awesomely random.
Mine was the latter.
I got
~A giant stuffed energizer bunny
~A wooden reindeer
~A wooden pirate wall plaque thing
~A wooden teddy bear with moving arms and legs
~A 'Granny excercise sweatin' to the oldies' tape
~And.....my favourite........A carpet patch thing of JFK's head in front of the white house. We think it's a rug. Or a wallhanging. We aren't sure.
ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was amazing.
I do believe that JFK will have to find a home in our apartment, possibly in one of the bathrooms, or on our kitchen floor (I am of the opinion that he is supposed to be a rug of some sort).
Chazse got a bag absolutely filled with girly bath and body works products, which everyone refused to steal from him 'cause it was just too funny watching him be frightened of the plethora of scents.
Let's see.....Hot items were the 'Oregon Trail' computer game, and the Nerf gun.
After the gift exchange we watched 'Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog'.
Only about three out of sixteen of us had seen it before, so it was pretty awesome. Everyone loved it. HAHA! How could they not?
He's Dr. Horrible.
He as a PHD in horribleness.
=D
After Dr. Horrible, some people left, and the rest of us just sort of hung out talking, sleeping, or playing spat.
At the end of the night some of us were standing on the porch (I was seeing people out) and we all agreed that Christmas Dinner is a wonderful thing. It is the one time out of the year that everyone gets to get together at the same time and get to catch up. We all know it's coming, we all plan for it, and it's a constant thing.
It was a good night.
A succesful night.
A night full of love, laughter, and a little bit of Christmas magic (That's right! I said magic!)
And to top it all off-
I walked away with JFK.
Pictures will hopefully follow soon!

The Coalition Lives!!!
Nothing.
And I mean, nothing
can beat an amazing night of Mafia.
Tonight was one of those wonderful mafia nights at Blake's house.
Arrived around 6:30, we hung out and ate pizza until around 8pm.
And then the merciless killing spree began.
We had all the really good mafia people there tonight, so the games were particularly full of lying, scheming, deciet, and betrayal.
All the things that make mafia AWESOME!
Later in the evening (about game 3 or 4) Alex, Tracy, and I, who were sitting on the one couch together decided that we would form a blind coalition.
This meant that in the next game, no matter whether any of us were mafia or civilian, we would NOT vote to kill each other.
We thought it would make the game more interesting.
And you know what?
It did.
*evil grin*
By the third game with coalition it had become like this evil force to rival the mafia. It was the civilian anti-mafia.
Except that if it came down to it, we would start killing civilians rather than turn on coalition members. (which was very interesting when the game came down to Alex killing either Tracy(civilian) or DeeAnn(mafia) and he HAD to kill Tracy because she wasn't in the coalition. Thus winning the game for the mafia. The room was in shock. "I can't believe you just did that!!! I didn't think you would! But you DID!)
The other people in the game started to realize that at a certain point, if they didn't start killing off coalition members, WE would end up with the majority vote and be forced to kill THEM off.
It was just awesome.
Our games are so intense and cool.
Plus we're all a bunch of really good liars most of the time (except for Nomi and that tell-tale blush of hers!)
Which doesn't sound like a necessarily good character trait, but makes for some great freakin' mafia.
To sum up this highly technical and mafia related post:
I had an AWESOME night.
I love my friends.
My friends are really good liars.
And.......
THE COALITION LIVES!!!!!!!
YES!!!!

The night before the dawn before the DAY of Christmas!
Hello everyone!!!
It's Christmas eve!!!
And for me that means.....
CHRISTMAS!
(since nothing really happens for our family on Christmas day)
Christmas Eve service at the church was first.
It's my favourite service in all the live long year.
Mostly because it's just so dark and beautiful and atmospheric and everyone sings all the Christmas songs that we love (Huzzah for my brother singing 'Mary Did you Know?'!)
Tonight all the children in the congregation were particularly rambunctious.
They just couldn't manage to be quiet for two minutes together!
It was quite amusing.
My favourite part was when RuthAnn was singing, 'Breath of Heaven' and after the line that says, "What have I done?" one of the children in the congregation let out one heck of a yelp (which sort of set off whimpers and squeals from all the rest of the kids).
All as if to say, "No. Really. What have you done? I mean, Mary? Did you know?"
Then at the end when Pastor Casey was finishing with the 'Christmas Prayer', all the children got really loud and started almost a sort of call and response with each other; each child listening to the screams of the child across the isle and responding in kind.
And all I could think as I tried to hide my giggles was, 'God bless the little children'. LOL!
Then my family came back to the house for the traditional Christmas eve homemade chicken stew, and chili.
Lots of chaos. The children were quite wound (probably from all that call and response at church) and were running around screaming like banshees.
Mom kept trying to take pictures of people, everyone was snitching cookies, the grandmas couldn't hear, and by the time the soup was ready we were all to full of cookies to eat much, but managed to force ourselves.
All in all, it was the usual ritual. =D
We opened our presents next.
Which was anarchy.
It's hard for it not to be when there are chittluns involved.
They're just so darned excited!
Elsie was adorable, she kept walking around showing people her presents and smiling, "This is my dolly. This is my dora. This is my book. Read my book please?"
Joe and Ayden ran around with screamy laser guns Mom got them.
And little baby Abe kept ending up on the floor underneath wrapping paper.
I swear, it felt like the kid was trying to get crushed!
My big present this year was a GPS system for my car.
And when I opened it, I cried.
A lot.
Because I absolutely did not think I was getting one. And that was ok.
But then I did.
And now I don't have to be lost anymore.
That's what I kept saying to mom through my tears, "I don't have to get lost anymore!!! Thank you Mom!! Dad, I won't be lost anymore!!"
It was pretty pathetic.
But man.
I am so happy I don't have to be lost anymore.
You have no idea how important something like this can be, until you've spent your life being directionally handicapped.
Always having to leave a half and hour earlier than everyone else because you're going to get lost on the way.
Never being able to just leave, because you have to follow another car.
The stress of being lost in scary areas of a city.
I am soooooooooooooooo happy.
In other news, my Grandmas made me my t-shirt quilt!!!!
It's a quilt with all of the t-shirts I had in high school and early college from plays and stuff sewn in.
I don't really wear t-shirts, but I wanted to save these and the Grandmas made them a quilt for me! =D
And now I will have them always.
Which is awesome.
From Phil I got an AWESOME 'Doctor Who' key chain (Sarah, Emily, and Rachel: I'll show you guys after break. It's fantastic)
He also got me a cool graphic novel and a giant history of 'Doctor Who' tome that has like, everything a person could ever want to know about 'Doctor Who' in it. =D
There were several other wonderful Christmas delights, but I love you all too much to make a complete list of my bounty here. You don't want to read that!
So, with that I will say, "good night" to you all, "Happy Birthday" to Jesus, and.......
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Born with a gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad"
Today was a good day.
Mum and I decided the brave the elements and head into D-Port for some last minute stuff.
She had to pick up some things for Grandma and church, and I just wanted to get out of the house.
So we were both happy.
Davenport was RIDICULOUS today!!!
It was impossible to get anywhere, crowds filled every nook and cranny of every building, and cars were bumper to bumper all day long!
Fortunately, I was with Mom.
And we laugh in the face of such things, "Ha Ha Ha!"
That's what I love about Mom.
She doesn't get mad about things like that, and I dont' either.
I just think they're funny!
Sure we sat in the Target parking lot for almost 20minutes waiting to pull onto the road.
So what?!
Isn't that ridiculous? Isn't that something worth laughing at? I think so.
The world is an absurd place.
Learn to laugh at it or spend the rest of your life railing against the unchangeable.
So here is something for you all to learn about me.
I don't get mad when things go wrong.
I generally think it's pretty funny.
The problem is that my reaction tends to just stress everyone out more, "WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING?!?!??!!!!"
Where other people suffer from the, 'this'll be really funny years from now' syndrome, I pretty well find everything funny as it's happening.
The world is a silly, silly, place!!!!
I just wish people would learn to enjoy things as they happen to them.
=D
Anyway.
Tonight a bunch of my friends came over
(sans Chazse, who had emergency surgery! And felt like he had to call me to apologize for not being able to come!!! POOR CHAZSE!!! I feel so horrible for him! Poor guy! It really sucks. And I'm definately praying that he feels better soon, because we missed him tonight).
We played Taboo for like two hours (HUZZAH TABOO!)
Which was, as usual, hilarious!
I love Taboo.
And I love Taboo with people who love Taboo
We laughed a ton and had a really good time.
Alex the 'King of Taboo', came over.
Unfortunately we discovered that his Kingship is entirely dependant upon who is guessing for him.
Thus the king was dethroned.
The record of 14 cards in one round still stands.
=D
Then we all watched 'Hamlet 2' together.
HAHA!
It was an.......interesting movie.
Sort of like, 'The Producers' in spirit.
The best part is at the end of the movie when they put on the show, unfortunately you have to sit through the rest of the movie to see it....
But I personally think it was worth it to see Hamlet saving Ophelia and Gertrude to the strains of 'Somenoe Saved My Life Tonight' as performed by the Tuscon Gay Men's Chorus.
ROFLMBO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seriously.
Rent it just to watch the end.
We all talked for a while after the movie was over, and then everyone left!
So here I am.
Up in my room and ready for bed.
I thank God for my friends.
I love them so much.
They make me so happy every time I'm with them, and I hope I bring them as much joy as they bring me.
(Seriously, I cannot think of a recent time we have been together and NOT had fun)
Thank you God.
Thanks for that.

And I've decided it might be fun to make a list of some of my favourite fictional characters (and also some that I just find really interesting) and then assign them each a song that I think fits them best.

Ice storms, scary trees, and a missing mouse...
So yesterday was Des Moines auditions.
I think they went well.
Pretty well.
As well as these things go anyway....
My throat was pretty dry, so it wasn't quite as vibrant as I would have liked.
But oh well, it's always something with auditions.
Mom and I drove through an ice storm to get there though!
On the way to Des Moines we were completely stopped for almost a half hour before moving along at 3mph for about another 40min.
Argh!!!
Why do people drive so stupidly in ice?!?!?!!!
ESPECIALLY people who live in IOWA?!
You would think they would KNOW BETTER by now!
....Anyway.
Silly people.
Winter weather = drive slowly.
SL-OW-LY.
Ack.
Well, now I'm all snug at home.
Mom and Dad have the creepy dancing tree up on the porch.
He freaks me out every time I walk by and he goes, "MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!" with his evil glowy green eyes....
And then he sings at me.
Mom and Dad laugh, taking joy from the sight of their only daughter being verbally attacked by a creepy dancing tree.
I hooked up the office's old computer in my room today.
FINALLY!!
Now I don't have to drag my massive desktop home from school every break!
Unfortunately.....Dad didn't bring the hookup that goes with the little wireless mouse.
So the computer is all hooked up.
But I can't use the mouse.
*head smack*
I just hope the roads clear up so i can go in to the office tomorrow and look for the missing 'all important' attachment.
Anyway.
It's time for dinner.
So I'm gonna go make pita pizzas and avoid the dancing tree of death.
Happy Christmas!
