Just 364 Shopping Days Left…
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to December 26th, or as I prefer to call it, International Seasonal Let-Down Day.
You’ve been stuffed full of turkey, ham, and sweet potatoes, and you still have another two weeks of leftovers to look forward to. And after you’re done with the leftovers? You get to diet. Not that you’ll actually lose that weight, but you gotta do it anyway.
Your presents were nice, but you’re already a little bored with them. You’ve got gift cards and Christmas cash to use, but you also know your credit card bills are coming. And rent’s coming due, too.
You have to take the tree, the lights, and all the decorations down.
Uncle Ronnie was both shirtless and drunk before noon yesterday.
Peace on Earth and Goodwill toward Men completely failed to materialize for the 2,007th year in a row.
The coldest, most miserable part of winter is still ahead of you.
And if you’re like me, you have to go back to work today.
So no real blogging today. Just work.
