Down then up then down again

I really hate this holiday season. Everything reminds me of the fact that I won't be seeing my family for Christmas. I mean, yeah I'll be seeing some of my in-laws but I've never gone a Christmas without seeing my mom and dad. Today was ok though. Even with it raining. Zach and I went to a couple antique shops so I could look for old keys. We didn't find any keys but I got him a straight razor like he's been wanting for a while now. I also got a necklace for me. It said it was 14k gold with an opal and several rubies. It looks amazing and I only paid $2.00 for it. I can't believe how good it is. I don't care if it's real or not. It reminds me of my great grandmother. Well, anyways. . . . I'm going to go play some video games. Hopefully it'll cheer me up a little.
