Jan. 2nd, 2011 09:07 pmBack home. The house is freezing. We had a good trip (for the most part anyway), but it is nice to be back. Well, mostly it's nice to be off the train. :p Though it was a remarkably smooth train ride this year. There were almost no delays in either direction! That's almost unheard of around Christmas.
When we were with my parents, my poor mother spent most of the time being confused. She just doesn't speak Geeky Reference as much as my father, brother, sister, Ryan and I do. And geeky reference we did! Considering we arrived just in time for the Doctor Who Christmas special, it was inevitable. And of course, as usual my father had gotten me the new Pratchett book. And read it before me. This year, his new twist on his emailed "spoilers" was to rename one of the characters from one of the other books he gave me to Tiffany.
I wonder what normal families do. :p
Speaking of normal families, apparently random people have been asking my mother when Ryan and I are having kids. Apparently these are people that don't actually know me, really.
