Busy busy days
Dec. 23rd, 2023 07:48 pmHello DreamWidth!
Apologies for not posting. We got the flu, then started winter break, and just... eh. But we're back (albeit we might leave again until school starts back up.)
So, updates time!
Got the flu, as previously mentioned. (Missed most of our finals. Taking them when we get back to school in January.)
The other night was Yalda Night! Iranian holiday. My children and I celebrated, my wife/our partner system even got a pomegranate for us to have out here since our festivities were happening in-headspace. Popee came, since she's dating my daughter, Ruby, though Popee didn't stay for the entire celebration because she had family things to attend to. Oh, and Nilou showed up! Great dancer. Wonderful at parties, too. She brought Tighnari along as well. Lesser Lord Kusanali wanted to come but I don't think she's in a place where she'd like to be around me; not in my home, at least. That's alright though. Would have been nice to have her over, though.
Today we did our Christmas cookie decoration stuff at Max's relatives' house. It was fun! Got some presents (a couple gift cards, and the Heartstopper book.) We didn't decorate any cookies though, because the table was surrounded by a bunch of small children and we didn't want to have to squeeze in there. It was still fun nonetheless.
Tomorrow's the Christmas party at Max's relatives' house, but it's the other side of the family. Real fun crowd, just a bit old-fashioned. And mostly Republican. They don't usually bring politics into the conversations though, so it's not the biggest issue.
I made some stir-fry noodles for dinner. Wasn't great, I kept having to help max's siblings so they turned out sort of overcooked. I still ate most of it anyway though. Tasted fine, just.. Texture. Bleuughh.
I think that's all for now.
