Collision - Saves The Day
Woke up early for my Christmas Eve shift at work. Me & Sarah decided to exchange gifts today as were not gonna be together tomorrow. She got methe sickest slippers ever. I think my hours of stressing paid off as she seemed pretty happy with what I got her. Either shes genuinly pleased or she's great at acting. We both got the bus to work together and said our goodbyes at Greys Monument. Foxy was sitting at the window of Starbucks having a pre-work coffee and I gave him a cheeky wave. Work was such a stress, pretty busy with people rushing off the last of their Christmas shopping and there was only a handful of us actually pulling our weight. Im really looking forward to leaving and fingers crossed il find a job im happier doing and more suited to. After the nightmare of work I met back up with Sarah and we got the bus home, We listened to Saves the Day as we packed our bags to spend the next two nights with our families. Mam picked me up and brought me to Killingworth. She made me an awesome vegetarian quiche and we watched "Gran Torino". I cant remember the last time I watched a film with my Mam, but i enjoyed it. She seemed to too, We very rarely spend time together these days. Paul came in a while later and we played on his xbox for a bit, We talked and just generally caught up with each other which was also really nice. Im quite looking forward to tomorrow. I Get to see my Aunty Joan who I havent seen for months and also Aunty Olive and Uncle Joe who I probably havent seen since last Christmas. Im ending the day drinking Ribena, watching American Dad and scraping the remains of the cheese and chive dip out with breadsticks. Iv just ordered the new Algernon Cadwallader 7" from the Be Happy Records site too. Stoked for that coming. That reminds me, I need to fix my record player.
