This Thanksgiving wasn't too bad. My aunt and uncle stayed over at our house all week, that was the annoying part. My uncle is a smoker, and several times a night he goes outside to smoke. I hear him cough horribly, then he goes outside to smoke some more. He knows how bad smoking is for your health, it's just hard for him to quit. Another annoying thing about him is that he has a hard time hearing, so when we watch tv he asks for the volume to be turned up so loud that I can't stand it. He did this when he wanted to watch the Da Vinci Code (which is extremely boring by the way). I went to sleep and he turned it up so loud I could hear it almost clearly from the other room. My uncle is funny though, has a good sense of humor, and likes history, like I do.

We had some other people over for Thanksgiving, and that was pretty fun. I got annoyed when they stood around to pray, taking it so seriously, but I kept my mouth shut. My other aunt and uncle came aswell, for dessert, and that was fun. They may be Christians, but their sense of humor is awesome.

There were a few times when I surprised my uncle - the one who was staying over at our house - by sortof "arguing" with him. He said that Dr Phil was a 'traitor to all men'. I asked him why and he said 'because the Man Show says so'. I replied with, 'so you let a show think for you?' And he thought I was shy.

Which brings me to another point.. my social anxiety is slowly going away. Doing school at home has done wonders to calm me down and have enough evergy to deal with people. Now I only get a bit anxious when people look at me, but somehow I enjoy it.

All in all it was a pretty good week, but I am so happy that my aunt and uncle left. They were staying in the room this computer was in, so now I finally get to come back. It was exhausting having people over, but to be honest, it was worth it. 0 Comments - Post/view comments
