    Dizzy The Bah Humbug page

    Dedicated to those who find the holidays - in particular Christmas - a big waste of time, annoying, over commercialized, cluster fu&% you wouldn't shed a tear over if this was the last one.

    The "merry merry, happy happy" thread =>

    This thread is for the rest of us who just wait for it to be over, so things can get back to "normal" and so you know you're not the only who feels that way.

    Hard to even leave the house to run errands as CVS, Super Market, etc all piping in extra loud holiday music I didn't like as a kid all that much, don't want blasted at me when I'm food shopping etc.

    Or, I'm the only one who feels this way...

    I am not a huge Christmas person. I hate it actually. I find myself day dreaming about having a husband and a bunch of kids so that I don't have to spend it will my family. THIS IS THE ONLY TIME I EVER WANT A HUSBAND. It's strange!

    Ughhh... I haven't been able to get any clients for my freelance writing work since before Thanksgiving because of the stupid holidays, and my neighbor has come to my door already this morning to say "Don't be lazy, we better see you at our holiday party tonight!"

    Because that's exactly what I want to do tonight, rather than be lazy: Be the only white girl at a holiday party with 20+ Spanish-speaking distant relatives that are struggling to decipher my English over the sounds of a live Mariachi band playing Feliz Navidad... AND apparently Santa is coming at 10PM! So I better stay for that! FML.

    (Will if I could thank you twice for this thread, I would.)

    I would have thought they'd be busy nights with all the bored guys stuck at home, etc. just as night clubs can be packed those nights.

    Woohoo! A place to be negative!

    Well, my husband and I have been home all day doing absolutely nothing. It's snowing AGAIN (something I've never had to deal with before moving to Ohio). Clubs are closed, so no working for me. Our families are hundreds, some thousands of miles away, so no parties/gifts/etc. I've received numerous emails from friends/family being immensely confused that we have nothing planned, like my apartment is located in some kind of alternate universe where joy is not to be found or something. Can't it just be that neither of us give a fuck that it's Christmas?

    Oh, and my computer crashed, so no camming. It should be fixed by Friday, hopefully.

    Bah humbug!

    Aww, sorry hun! It's been pretty lucky w/no snow/extreme cold (other than a few scattered days of 20's @ night) but that can change fast

    We are supposed to have another winter storm on Wednesday. I'm starting a new club on Thursday and I'm terrified of driving in the snow! I keep telling myself to calm down and just take it slow. At least I have a few days to clean up and catch up on my reading.

    Yeah, you're like me, w/my small car (& lately the wonky steering prob.) I'm kinda scared of driving in heavy snow..not to mention out here, a lot of places don't really believe in plowing..
