Aww I'm sorry to hear about Stripes ='( He will be missed.
Aah I am very familiar with your situation haha Last Christmas, when I had already graduated 7 months ago and still unemployed, was when we went to Seattle where my extended family live. Luckily, they're pretty chill and non-judgmental people, but I did get asked the typical questions. I pretty much just said that I'd been looking for a job since graduation...using the whole recession thing as a reason why I didn't have one yet (which is, I guess, true). As for what I was looking to "do", I gave an incredibly vague answer comprised of one or more of the following words: communications, marketing, web, advertising, broadcasting, mass media, online, production...which was usually preceded by "something to do with". =p Vague, fancy-sounding answers are always a win! haha
