So gift opening has been scattered throughout the day.
Two stocking presents, breakfast, rest of the stockings,
Some big gifts, a family meal with two guests.
They also want to go see a movie today.
I don't, because I was invited to go to a movie with my friends.
But I cannot say no to my family without being a jerk.
So I will end up having to cancel with my friends.
I know Christmas is supposed to be a family day,
And every other year it has been.
But now I am finished with my friends' gifts,
And I really want to go do something,
And see people I love outside the family too.
I like all my presents so far.
We will open the rest after the movie.
I will do the scattered present opening
Only because my dad requested it.
All in all, it's a weird and restless Christmas,
With obligation to stay with my immediate family,
Except my sister and brother-in-law who live out of state.
With how I really feel being a not-so-secret secret.
Update: It ended up that my brother could not go,
So we did not do a family movie.
I went out with my friends :)
And we opened the last big presents when I got back.
