It's the most wonderful time of the year!

Yeah, I love Christmas. It goes too fast, I spend too much, and I build it up too greatly in advance. But I feel like a better person, and when I'm out shopping in the height of the crazy rush, like today, I feel alive; I feel like there is hope for humanity. Everyone smiles a little more, everyone's a little nicer, and I want that feeling all year; I get greedy for it. ("Scrooged"--OK, I love that movie, too) It didn't snow, but I don't even care about that, either. The only thing I would possibly bitch about is that we only have one whole week off from school, which is a little Ebenezer-ish. But bring on 2007--I'm even over my new millenium neurosis.
