Well, Christmas is out of the way. Now if I can just get through New Year’s Eve. This should be fairly easy, since I plan to stay home, perhaps have a few adult beverages, and then go to bed long before the Baby New Year makes its inevitable arrival. I have long passed the stage where I felt it was necessary to stay up until midnight, imbibe heavily and then pass out and sleep New Year’s Day away.
I am thinking of suggesting to somebody (I don’t know who, just somebody) that we have Christmas in June. The reason for this is selfish, yet simple: I am always broke in December, and fairly solvent in June. Therefore, so nobody feels slighted because I can’t afford gifts, I would like to hold Christmas at a more economically convenient time.
I realize this may inconvenience some others, but after all, I’m not worried about them. Or, actually, I am worried about them, which is the reason I am requesting the change in the first place. I also feel Santa would more fully enjoy having Christmas in June, since the North Pole is warm and light that time of year, and nobody likes getting ready in the dark.
Perhaps I should start a petition.
