Not feelin' it at all. The warm weather's pissing me off. Add in my daughter not coming down for Xmas, I'd just as soon cancel it, and try again next year. I usually love Xmas. It's my celebration of winter, but without winter, why bother?

It's 70-80F, bright and sunny.
Anytime I don't have to switch out my Pilot Supersports, I don't feel the Christmas spirit :p

Hmm, I may stop charging women for letting them have sex with me for the rest of the week and that would be my charity.

I got a nice Xmas bonus and got by cheap on presents. Now for the important stuff...blow money on myself or go ahead and pay next months car insurance and get ahead a few months on my car payments....hmmm....what would Jeebus do?

My problems aside, been too warm and wet to feel like Xmas. Apparently shoppers in general are feeling that way according to reports. At this point I'm just ready to get it over with and enjoy whats left of my weekend...probably what most here are thinking too.

Well, I can't say I'm immune, I'm not a block of granite, however I avoid Xmas music as a rule and have spent just about zero time in any stores this year hearing Xmas music. I've been shopping online, had one foray into a Costco 7 days before Xmas, no music but the density of customers was over my tolerable limit.
