Status: offline 		now now ... i told you no such thing ... i simply pointed out the believed reasoning behind the choice of that date ...

my reason for posting was simply to point out that ... though my wiccan friends are attacked and ridiculed for their actions around certain *christian * holidays  because they are suposedly * taking away from the spirit of the season * it is infact the other way around

personally, though i no longer believe in the central ideals of christianity even if they WERE being held to in this day and age ,i still like the presents bit ...

and yes the whole * why do you give / get presence at christmas when you dont believe in Christ * argument has been mentioned and my  response is this

I choose to show my love and appreciation for people in my life ... i choose to do so at a time that a large part of society does the same ... thus i avoid confusion and dont have to explain to everyone why im giving them free stuff . whether i believe in the reasons behind the gift giving or not doesnt make the gift giving any less important

I can deal with the stupid decorations up before Memorial Day (Yes, some idiots had them up before then here.), and I can even deal with the stupid Christmas music that they put on at 12pm on October 31 at my local mall (although it makes me wanna jam a candycane up an elfs ass and roast him over an open fire.).  The only thing that bugs me more than those idiot egg nog drenched drivers, is Family.  In particular, family that bitch about what I buy them.  Next year, I dont buy them anything, and instead give their portion of the gift money to a few Angel Tree kids who desperately NEED that new jacket, or a pair of shoes, and dont really care about the toy, but are probably super happy to get it, and family still bitches because they wanted that gift, even though they didnt think about anyone else because they couldnt afford gifts for anyone, but happened to get a new car, and neglected to get their kids a halfway decent Christmas that didnt even consist of clothes.  Nooo...You had to get your kids cards with 5 freaking dollars in it and say "Have a good one kiddo."

Anyone wanna trade families for the holidays, or adopt me?  lol



I'll adopt ya, if only to be able to say I've been to Moosecrotch! 

(I actually was in Bumpass, VA yesterday!)

Status: offline 		I love holiday decorations, especially the LIGHTS, but I despise the stress of putting them up and taking them down.  Personally, I would leave the lights up all year round, for the sake of Festivus and all. 

Ghod I hate the holidays.  With the passion of ten thousand blazing suns.   Is it January yet?

My greatest stress comes from the relatives who complain loudly about lack of money and go deeper into debt year after year buying stuff they don't need.

She as moved to a nursing home just over a week before Christmas
She died on December 30th.

For me, privately, the holidays are exceptionally painful, since my grandmother used to love cooking both holiday meals for the family, despite being a cook for over 37 years for a college.

I have seen my first Christmas tree already last week in Wandsworth in London, complete with fairy lights.

Is this a record?

And I thought the music industry had exposed me to a braod spectrum of British sland and terms…  I had to look up “fairy lights”. . .   I should have known.

Ladies, I hope this helps you in your future shopping experiences.

   I freaking hate those people in the mall that have those kiosks and want to show you this stupid toy, or that crappy new nail care system.  I even hate it more that those freaks try to corner you like youre a freaking bunny, and they are a hungry pissed of lion.  I swear, they got one more time to harass me about buying that over priced crap, and I will not be responsible for my actions.

my big problem is family, I could and would understand if a member of my family needed dinner held till 2am... my problem is a sister that invites her family to dinner and makes all sorts of promises about helping cook and clean... then spending all night  the night before cooking  a turkey, a ham, both so tender they fell off the bone*good gods can ArmoredOne cook* not to mention all the extras he let me help with(the sister brought over canned corn and canned  green beans, for us to heat up) just to have them show up about 20 minutes before we ate, and leaving with nothing cleaned up not by them at least...staying up till 3 am cleaning up the mess just to get up at 4am to be at work for Blitz.. and getting to work a double shift till 9am then back at 2pm  till 11pm... thank gods for insomnia...

Status: offline 		The one thing that really gets my goat is the fact that people in this 'season of goodwill' get nastier, ruder and more aggressive. Another thing that gets on my Nelly is how people behave in supermarkets. Whole aisles become impassable. Cellphones have made this worse. Before you'd have husband and wife each with a trolley arguing over how many crackers to buy or how big the turkey has got to be and trying to work out who's coming and not coming. Now you've got to wait longer as husband and wife now call other people on their cellphones to make sure they're coming, and then they ask them what food they want to eat, oh and before they forget, what would they like for Christmas, yadda yadda yadda..
