fail, christmas gets crappier every year for me.
My birthday's on Christmas. The dual purpose gift was invented for me. When I was a kid, I came to expect a nice Christmas present with a nice Christmas card. On the inside of the Christmas card was Scotch Taped a stale green jellybean, usually cracked. Next to the jellybean was written (in the penmanship of an obviously inebriated person): Oh, yeah, by the way, Happy Birthday, you little asshole!"
Or this:
Unfortunately, it won't be much of a Christmas for us this year. Anne Marie's been in bed with the flue since Monday. Her family, including her niece and her husband who's in the Navy and their dogs, was going to come over for Christmas, dinner, and spend the night. Now they're not. No turkey dinner. Anne Marie hadn't done much Christmas shopping before she got sick, so no presents for me. Oh well.
