I was just curious as to how everyone spends this day.

    I am going to have a lie in today. Does anyone know why today is called Boxing Day? What does boxing have to do with any of this?

    I have no idea. I always thought it was because the day after Christmas is when you get rid of all the boxes but I think that's unlikely to be the reason lol.

    I always thought Boxing day was when everyone just got into a boxing ring.

    That would be kind of cool though lol. I used to do martial arts so you'd better watch out 🙃 (I'm joking, I wouldn't fight any of you guys hehe)

    I wouldn't fight any of you either, mainly because you will just end up wiping the floor with me but also because I would rather not harm people I like. I might just watch Jake Paul's fight that got him a broken jaw instead.

    Love this poll idea so much @so_very_tired - thanks for creating!

    My family and I went for a walk on my lunchbreak to get some sunshine which was so lovely!

    It`s okay. In all fairness the most recent comments had been from @so_very_tired so it makes sense as to the mistake.

    Technically im not really sleeping to be fair lol but I have been on my laptop all day. I haven't done a lot, though I am tired most of the time to be fair. Boxing day for me is going to be very relaxed and chill because this year theres no rush to see family or visit relatives etc.

    My body seems to plan to have a tic attack as well. Stupid FND.
