Surprisingly, it wasn't that bad. My mom is becoming quite the internet user, so she managed to get a tasty recipe for a pasta dish. She also cooked a ham thing to make it more Christmas-y but no one ate it. We all had pozole instead . A whole bunch of people came over and hogged my wireless connection. Why the fuck would you bring a laptop to a Christmas dinner? I felt uncomfortable giving away my password for some reason. We didn't have that many gifts to exchange. I got a Tutsi Bota from my cousin in México. It's this boot-shaped thing that's full of Tootsie Pops. There's also a few Tootise Rolls. I've only had it for a few hours and I'm almost through with it. I didn't go to sleep until around 8:00am today because I had a pretty interesting card game going on with my uncles. They got too drunk to drive home so they stayed in our living room. They didn't complain; the HBO softcore porn kept them happy. They said I should stay and watch but that'd be a downgrade from the variety available on a high-speed internet connection.

I finally got around to organizing a bunch of my music (over 50GB) so I can sync it with my iPod. I hate iTunes so I had to look for an alternative. I don't like Winamp that much and Songbird would not recognize the device. So I had to go with MediaMonkey. It works pretty well, but I don't like the interface or how it messes up the tags. I wish more of my Windows apps had an awesome open source alternative so I can use Ubuntu as my main OS. Amarok handles iPods like nothing. I'm going to get started reading The Invisible Man. We have to do a report thing for AP English and it's due when we return from break. I hate being forced to read books.
