Boxing Day

"Boxing Day is traditionally the day following Christmas Day, when servants and tradesmen would receive gifts, known as a "Christmas box", from their bosses or employers. Today, Boxing Day is the bank holiday that generally takes place on 26 December. It is observed in the United Kingdom, Canada, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Trinidad and Tobago and some other Commonwealth nations." - Wikipedia"Boxing Day is traditionally the day following Christmas Day, when servants and tradesmen would receive gifts, known as a "Christmas box", from their bosses or employers.

Today I realized what Boxing Day is and/or was and am completely disappointed. I thought it was a day where the noble sport of boxing was celebrated. I suppose I was grossly wrong, but I still wish that I knew how to box.
Looking at today, I realized that I did nothing and am content with that. I had intended to do something productive, but when I went to work out with a friend we just talked, played with his sisters new cat, and bothered his brother with the talk of Kingdom Hearts and the Binding of Isaac. 

I then played a game of Dota, and to be honest that made me mad. A British Gentleman, whom I had hoped would be friendly, quit the game in a huff after I died twice bottom as a rather squishy hero (Lina, vs. Lifestealer and Crystal) without any friends, despite my rotation and successful ganks a few moments later. I guess he was just frustrated. We had a man random Troll Warlord and he wasn't great, but at least he stuck it out. Our Nightstalker was good, but he didn't coordinate well and I was usually out of position.  Our team still managed to extend the game, but it is very hard to stop the progression when the game is effectively 4 v. 5, or really sometimes 3 v. 5.  Ah well, I won't bore you with the technical jargon, suffice it to say that we lost when we could have won if someone had not quit early.

SEGWAY! I hate it when people quit on things. I wrestled in High School and my friend, incidentally who I spent some time with today, quit the team sophomore year. I could have forgiven him for it, our coach was a complete jerk to him that day, but he then went and started to use drugs significantly more than is safe and it really bothered me.  There are challenges and ways to go through or around those challenges and I really dislike it when people try to skirt the challenge in order to succeed without substance. They do not do the task properly, or completely, or sometimes at all and it is a terrible injustice. Blah. It makes me want to hit people sometimes.

So yeah. Boxing Day.
