Default holidays are here

i hate these two seasons. from oct to feb you have holidays that just make having SA worse. halloween, thanksgiving, christmas, new years and valentines day

the worse one for me is christmas because its also my favorite one. i like to see how the entire city is so festive and the general 'christmas spirit' you feel. but it really sucks when you go home to isolation.

I never met a holiday I didn't like. Maybe we can have our own little SAS holiday "party" and it will cheer you up. We can all dress up in Halloween costumes and sit in front of our computers, lol. I want to be a bumble bee.

Funny to think back on my life and see how my attitude has changed about the holidays. When I was young, I never really understood why I was always so grumpy. Then when I got older, I made the excuse that because I was not religious, I was no longer going to participate in any holiday with a religious theme. Then along came my little boy, whoa! You mean I have to go over to all these peoples houses and have dinner with them?

The holidays are a love hate love relationship for me.

I couldn't agree more! It almost makes me physically ill, especially Christmas. I think I'm gonna spread the word for people not to buy me anything because I sure as hell don't feel like buying anyone anything and I don't know what people want anyway. It's such a pain in my ***.

All New Years Eve does is make me think about how I don't have anyone special to share it with and how others are coupled up.
I wish it all would go away.
