Look, I respect that people celebrate and enjoy Christmas. I spent time with my fiancée’s family and enjoyed it too. But the lights, the colors, the aggressive marketing, the music: I’m always at least a little glad when it’s finally over.

One nice thing about this holiday though? We get a full week off work, paid holiday. So I'm gonna chill with my cat, and probably do some work from home anyways.

It's almost weird to turn on my car and hear normal music coming from the speakers.

Don’t worry, there’s still New Year’s Eve!

i love putting a real tree in my living room. I also love putting that real tree in a fire pit a month or so later.

I love the huge family get-togethers. I also love that several family members are allergic to dogs so we never have to host.

fireworks and newyears eve are just tradition here (people starting the new year with fewer hands or eyes than they left the old year with is too)

for now anyway.... the nannies that be are trying to get rid of that one

(mostly coz asshats cant resist blowing shit up that aint theirs)

I’m just in it for the slower days at work and the software sales. My family stopped giving gifts 16 years ago when I was unemployed for a spell and, for the most part, we’re happy with that. Except for my sister, who will give presents to everyone but me, right in front of me. Such a sweetheart...

Nothing like a living air freshener to make the entire floor smell like fir.
