Happy Holiday but not a second more

Tuesday, December 1st, 2009

Our holidays are too short. There is all this hype and then they last one day and then life comes back at you like a freight train. I keep thinking “I wish it was last week because last week was a three day work week followed by eating and laziness.” Thanksgiving is a superb holiday and one that should last the whole weekend. Instead Christmas starts at exactly midnight on Friday with all that stupid Black Friday madness and Thanksgiving is pushed aside as if it were an annoying…..whatever. I miss you Thanksgiving.


I do love a good Christmas though.


Alas, it has the same end result as Thanksgiving except the day after Christmas is ten times worse. I try to listen to Christmas music and watch Christmas movies but they don’t have the same sparkle and warmth as before Christmas. I just end up feeling like a loser who is begging for that hot guy to make out with me and he only does it out of pity because he misses his girlfriend. (Are you wondering how I know how that feels?)
So happy Christmas everyone, enjoy the movies and music while they last; 24 days and counting.




And I would like to send my blog readers a Christmas card this year. You do a lot for me by reading this blog. And yes I do Christmas cards. I love Christmas and my husband loves Christmas cards. So if you would like one email me your address. I realize that if you accept a card we are crossing the virtual realm into the reality realm but whatever, I do actually exist and so do you.

  1. It’s true. I loooove putting decorations up- almost as much as I love putting them away…. Glad you had a good Thanksgiving anyway.

  2. I want a Christmas card! Maybe I’ll be inspired by you (as I am in so many other ways) and send Christmas cards out this year too. I never do.

    I also love Thanksgiving. The best is when you go out of town for Thanksgiving….then the holiday lasts longer, cause you can’t get back to your regular life until you get back to town. I really want to go to CA next Thanksgiving to see Marie. You guys should come too.
