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

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

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