I celebrated monday the 25th

My holiday weekend consisted of playing Final Fantasy XXII until I got hungry, and then eating and watching Rocky 1 through 5 during each meal.

When monday rolled around, I was completely satisfied.

Some might deem my weekend pathetic, but really, what defines Christmas? This year, to me, I just wanted a long weekend to myself. It's not that I didn't want to see my family or friends, I just wanted to be selfish this year. I think I've earned it.

Is Christmas about family, friends, gift giving, catching up and things like that? What about the endless amounts of people who crawled out of the woodwork to gridlock the highways and make a pleasant two hour drive a six hour ordeal? What of the endless ridiculous promotions on tv for holiday sales and end of the year clearances?

I like celebrating Monday. Maybe next year i'll celebrate Tuesday.
