Yay for Jewish friends. In response to my sad entry last night, Miles wrote and said that he would watch a movie or two with me tonight if I were interested. It's not quite the same as having my family here still, or having a boyfriend to take me in and make me a part of their family celebration (although I am very happy and excited for Mary) -- in fact, it has nothing to do with celebrating Christmas at all, but it's also not sitting at home lonely.
