Christmas Is Over

Christmas has passed. Which means it will be much easier to get to and from work.
I like Christmas. It's not my favorite holiday, but I still love it. It's way to stressful.
Christmas shopping is the most stressful part of this holiday.
I think it's funny how the Christmas season is supposed to be jolly and full of goodwill and all that junk. Yet, everyone seems to turn into scrooges and grumps. No one has any patience, and everyone is rushing rushing
rushing.
Then there are those who try to plan ahead. Some people start their holiday shopping in July, but then rush to finish it Christmas Eve.
I'm like that. But it's over and I can relax... kind of.
My Christmas was uneventful. I got some cool stuff though. Lots of CDs and pens and a garment bag. Others things too, but I'm not about to rattle off my Christmas spoils on the internet.
Happy New Year!

Oh, Christmas.

It's the Christmas season. And one thing that really gets on my nerves is when people wish me Happy Holidays. What kind of crap is that? Which Holiday are you talking about? Memorial day?
No, I didn't think so. Say it to my face you pansy. Oh and those of you that get "offended", get over yourself. You've always celebrated Christmas (unless you celebrate Hanukkah or Kwanzaa). But seriously, if someone wished me a Happy Hanukkah or Kwanzaa, it's not like I would freak out and pull a Charlie the Unicorn by shunnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn-ing the non believer. I'd wish them a Happy freakin' Hanukkah right back! And then there are those people who just don't believe in Jesus or God or Christ or anything.
"Well what'd you celebrate?"
" The Holidays."
"Oh you mean Christm-"
"NO! The Holidays!"
"Well which one?"
"..."

And the worst part after saying that how much I hate people saying Happy Holidays. That's what I'll be saying for the remainder of this.. what the heck we'll just call it a season, that way everybody's happy. That's what I'll be saying for the remainder of this season. So frusterating.
It's not even that I mind saying Happy Holidays, what bothers me is that we're nearly forced to say it, especially in the workplace because these idiots get offended. Outside of work I don't have a problem with offending people. But I'm not exactly about to go and get myself fired for saying Merry Christmas, especially in the middle of a recession.
Anyway, have a Happy Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Christmas or just plain season, no merry wishes for Washingtons
Birthday though, sorry.
