Wishing me a Merry Christmas is my preference. I will accept Happy Holidays and even a Happy Hannukah (even though I'm not Jewish) but dont dare wish me a Happy Winter Solstice or Festivus!!! Christmas exists because of Jesus period.

Festivus seriously? It's not even a real holiday. Though what if the person wishing you a Happy Winter Solstice is pagan? They do fall on the same day after all.

I have had people tell me "Happy Festivus" within the past couple days (I guess they think I like Seinfeld or something? But I definitely don't). I even heard a lady talking on the phone yesterday about how she loves Festivus, blah blah blah. I think it's just plain stupid.

IDK what you mean "fall on the same day" but if you mean Winter Solstice and Christmas fall on the same day, that is incorrect. The Winter Solstice falls on December 21st, which definitely not Christmas Day.

Thank you.
Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays, and that's it. I won't accept anything else.

16-18 inches of snow tonight.:( And I hate driving my mom's suv. Too many buttons, gadgets, and gizmos inside. Every time I leave the house, she say's "take the suv".:rolleyes:

eta: lol
I just found out my mom has a snuggie. I should have brought mine home with me. We rented movies and we're going to make smores in front of the fireplace tonight. Oh, and we made baklava today, for tomorrow. It took all day.

This is the lamest complaint ever:

You said you were leaving for the holidays, but in fact you haven't. I realize you pay rent but I made plans around your absence. I was all pumped up to lounge about the house in my pyjamas, watch movies and eat at random times since I am unable to travel the 1,000 miles home, but you being home puts a kink in my plans. I'm not sure why you're here when your family is less than three hours away, tops, and you get along with them. Your finals were over early last week, wouldn't you want to leave town for break? If I didn't have a job that expected me to be here I would have peaced out within 24 hours of my last final, so I honestly don't get it.

Thankfully my boyfriend is out of town and I can go to his place but he has a crappy tv and he'll be back Saturday and demanding attention so I am getting no time to myself, grrrrr. What's the point of not going home for the holidays if you can't appreciate the solitude and peace and quiet that comes when your family is absent of drama making?

**tch! You just WASTED 15 minutes of my life because you don't know how to do your job. if I could climb through the phone, I would shake the %&*t out of you then send your dumb @** to a remedial course on how to communicate to/with the general public.

~you may now return to your regularly scheduled programing.~

You're a personal trainer and getting your bachelors in Kinesiology. Just because you took an Anatomy/Physiology class, does NOT mean you are an expert on everything medical. And to lecture (well he was arguing, I was just saying, 'no' lol) me about how Grey's is more medically correct than ER (after I SPECIFICALLY said I haven't really ever watched Grey's) is stooooooopid. What part of my eye rolls, sighs, and me saying "honestly, I don't really care" told you that I cared? I DON'T! And you still think I want to date you? That's strike 3.

I'm an idiot magnet, I swear!!

LOL I actually love that word! I don't know, it just sounded pretty to me. It was my hobby too and I could remember it because I competed in equitation specifically lol.

Yeah, it sounds pretty if I could ever spit it out!!! hahaha :D Les antiquités was easier...though it never came up in conversation. :rolleyes:

IDK if i'll last till midnight, so Merry Christmas, everybody!!

How are you going to yell at me for going to church on Christmas Eve and wanting to go on Christmas Day. Especially when I told you over two weeks ago that was what I was going to do.

Are those the only two days out of the year that you go?

no, I have been going regularly to church for the last 3 1/2 months or so. Actually today was the first time I think I have ever gone to a mass on Christmas or Christmas Eve.

;):)

I wish my dog would open her presents by herself! I got her a toy and my sis got her some treats. My grandma also got her a toy. Ohhhh she's gonna be so excited tomorrow!
Ha! I put "Happy Festivus" on my Facebook on the 23rd as a joke, but I wasn't serious.

Gahhh I totally failed on one of my sister's Christmas presents. I was trying to make her a hat, but I messed up twice. I think I'll wrap up both failures as a joke then the extra yarn I have so I can make her a new one!
