Writer's Block: Circle the date

My favorite holidays are my birthday, Christmas and Halloween. I love the idea of getting to be different for a day and/or getting together with family and/or friends. However, I hate all the marketing and commercialism about how the corporations feel Christmas and Halloween SHOULD BE instead of just letting people relax and celebrate in their own way. It's so bad most of my retail friends end up saying things like, "I'll just be glad when it's OVER!"

That's just not the holiday spirit at all and makes me sad.

Yeah, capitalism pretty much sucks the fun outta everything! But beyond that, those are my favorite holidays, too. (Well, MY birthday, not yours, hehe.)
