From the Holiday Homefront

I made the trip successfully.  In a way.  I arrived here without any major catastrophes on the road.

But thus far I am a complete failure in terms of embracing the holiday, relaxing with my family, and in general just behaving like a human being.  Why, why, why is this so difficult?  My self-loathing is reaching new heights. 

 I am crunched for time this morning, on my way out the door to take my little brothers (ha, not so little anymore, they both tower over me now!  When did these men invade my brothers' bodies?) out for shopping/lunch/movie, but I'll have another update soon. 

Goal for the day: don't repeat yesterday.
