Merry Christmas!....again

So it's Christmas, but it's weird..it doesn't feel like Christmas. First time being away from home for the holidays and for the most part I wish I was home. But that's not to say that I haven't had a good Christmas.

Last night Pascal and I went to the Chef's rocklette party at his house. Rocklette is a Swiss dish made up of melted cheese and then you put different kinds of meat and vegetables in it. It wasn't bad and we actually had a good time. I say that cause the chef can sometimes be a little mean but maybe it was good that we all spent time with him on Christmas since his family is over in Japan and he can't be with them for the holidays.

As for gifts, well I gave Pascal his two gifts from me. A red plaid shirt (he loves plaid) and a brown beret (for someone who hates being called french he certainly likes to wear berets)
I got some comic books..YAY (such a geek I know). We or at least I had some lovely New Zealand wine to celebrate which wasn't bad. So all in all it wasn't a bad night.

Talked to my mom and Ellen this morning. Guess Ellen is having a blast in Ottawa. Good for her, I'm glad she is enjoying this Christmas. She was so worried it wasn't going to go well but it seems to have worked out for her. Mom and Anne had a good Christmas too. Lots of gifts I guess. I opened up my card from my mom with her on the phone and it was really sweet. Gave me a cheque for $100 and Anne drew me a card (so creative) of the cartoon unicorn Charlie and his friends (haha so freakin funny I love it) with a cheque as well for $20. Ah I miss my family but I'm glad they all had a good Christmas.

Now I must be off to work for 2:30 ( Boouuurns) and then I work till 11pm and the next day 6:30am. So I apologize guys if I won't be around to get your phone call but I wish you a merry Christmas and I'll be home tomorrow afternoon after work so If you want to call than that would be good.

Take care :)
