Feeling a little bit better today. Still have a lot of problems, but I didn't want to leave that last depressing post at the top of the page for very long.
Good things about the Xmas trip:
Long road trip with my wife and a kick-ass music playlist. Only got irritable twice (first one - sleepy, second one - hungry).
Seeing my mom and dad, most of my cousins, aunts, and uncles, and their 12 million babies and small children.
Getting serious love from my mom's cat.
Seeing my brother and sister-in-law. Watching Die Hard 1 and 2 with them and eating lots of stuff.
Playing some drums.
Seeing some good friends and friendly acquaintances I don't get to see much.
Attending a small gathering of friends that somehow turned into a faux-celebrity roast, complete with live microphone. Several of us performed impromptu stand-up routines, some acoustic music was played, stories were told, and then a dance party broke out. I seem to have one great spontaneous friend night every year at the holidays, and that is something to be happy about.
Please enjoy this photo of hot dogs.

I will fully admit that I have a tendency to pick the weirdest possible exit when we are both really hungry and I am super tired of driving, so getting irritable is an understandable reaction.
But at least I didn't get us totally lost like I did that one time in Wisconsin...
Also, now I really want a hot dog.
That roast/comedy/dance party was ten tons of fun and seven kinds of funny. Good to see you and I would like a hot dog, too.
This was lovely to reead
