It's not over til the girlfriend arrives

I can't believe people were shopping yesterday. It's bizarre. I mean, I appreciate that christmas has no spiritual meaning to some folk, but why go back out there in the midst of the throngs when you could be sat on your backside, chilling out. I love this time of year because it's the only opportunity I get to do just that. I live my life at 100mph. I had a good christmas, it was quiet and spent with my nearest and dearest, except my girlfriend. She was at home with her nearest and dearest except me. It's nice that we can both be with our families. Some people find it odd, I just think it's fair. Why should either of us have to choose? She's coming to join me later and then we'll be together for the rest of the festive period, and I'm really looking forward to having her back with me *grins*.
