ugh...my mom totally got drunk tonight at the Polish Christmas dinner we attended and said I was "close-minded and prejudice" because I didn't like Adam Lambert's music. All I said was that his music sucked. Rolling Eyes I hate when people take opinions like that and turn it into something that is considered personally offensive. So what, if I didn't like motown, I'm racist? That's not true, though, because I adore motown, ESPECIALLY, Sam Cooke. Good lord is he good.

I'm racist because I didn't vote for Obama. *shrug* But that didn't come from my family. Had I voted for him, I would have been disowned.

And motown isn't that great. Rock 'n Roll is where it's at. Very Happy

Remember: Christmas is happy time. Make like a duck and let all the bad water slide off your back. And avoid oil spills. Shocked

I'm thankful to not be home this year. We spent over an hour on Skype, and that was enough for me. Very Happy

Last night, I gave the couple who hosted the dinner a few "juice boxes" of soju. It really livened up the party.
