      Sister-in-Law's son is 4 and my kid will be 10 in a few days, and SIL repeated, several times, as soon as we walked into her house, 'OH, MY SON DIDN'T WANT SIDNEY TO COME, HE SAID SHE THREW A TOY EGG AT HIM LAST TIME' & 'I WAS TELLING MY SON WE'RE GOING ON HOLIDAY WITH SIDNEY SOON AND HE DIDN'T WANT HER ALONG AS LAST TIME SHE THREW A TOY EGG AT HIM'.

      Listen: I only do this shit to pretend to be a big happy family & my kid would definitely rather be at home on her laptop so could you please PIPE THE FUCK DOWN making a 9 year old feel unwanted in your fucking house? Look, he's trying to play with her already - shut the fuck up. If you don't like me, cool. Let's pretend like grown ups. Don't embarrass my kid, I fucking hit people.

      Edited to add: Happy fucking holidays. Have a drink for me if you too have in-laws you could do without.

          Spent much of the night last night at the ER with the 5 year old (most severe asthma attack he has ever had, but luckily we were able to avoid hospitalization, since he responded so well) first time he has had to go on oxygen rather than just the nebulizer. But he was still up at 5 as per usual on christmas morning! 😕

            Have spent the entirety of Christmas Day so far chilling by the fireplace with my laptop working on code. Best holiday ever!

            Merry Christmas everyone!

              So, I feel like I'm mildly interested in stuff people may of gotten this year for the holiday. For myself, I'm pretty happy with the bottle my brother got me this year.

                A friend sent me some money to help with my move.

                That and the usual yearly 'we all buy each other a couple cheap games during the steam sale' with the people I game with sometimes is all. But between that and a few texts from friends throughout the day made me feel remembered and that's pretty damn nice.

                  @Testament Much approve of Die Hard wall art, too. ❤

                  I mentioned a 'OMG I GOT THE THING I WANTED OMG REALLY?' in things I love, but that particular cool thing was the costume book for Game of Thrones.

                  It is a gorgeous fucking book and I don't care who anyone reading this is, everyone should own this book. Acquire one if you can. It is fucking glorious.

                  (Dear costumers in the audience: be very prepared to invent new profanity at all the endless hours of embroidery shown that were never visible on screen. I am not kidding; I cannot overstate this. My dear sweet uberCatholic church lady mother was spluttering 'fuck!' effusively in all manner of creative variants at this book for just that reason.)

                  Oh fucking well.

                    Partner: Did you have a good Christmas?
                    Me: Yes.
                    Partner: Even if I didn’t get you anything?
                    Me: You’ve given me two children. That’s all I need.
                    Partner: That’s sweet.
                    Me: Thank you.

                    (Dramatic pause.)

                    Me: Toil and pain make me stronger.
                    Partner: I hate you.

                    Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!
