    My cards say 'Peace'

    ...because many people in my life aren't christians, or they don't celebrate Christmas. Yet I'm Catholic, I love the holliday and in the spirit of the season, I send a card to everyone. "Happy Hollidays" is a way to give everyone your good wishes, while being respectful. "Merry Christmas" is reserved for the members of the club, so to speak.

    And I love the lights, decorations, santa hats and even the spending. After all, people are spending because they want to give presents to their loved ones and they want to celebrate. What is so fricking awful about that?
