Holidays Pt. 2

Apologies repeated, I hate holidays. Some more than others.

Christmas, in Arizona, looks like any other day, routines same ol’ same ol’, sending cards, receiving preprinted cards, shopping on the Internet, Gift Certificates, TV ads starting before Halloween, reruns until after New Year’s Day, and traditions long gone.

New Year’s Eve in bed by seven. Awaken by fireworks and frightened dogs. Out of bed by seven, resolutions, broken by noon, eat while parades and football games become white noise. TV sucks.

Next up, Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Speeches. Third Monday of the month, Federal Holiday. Most US workers working.
