Ok - I've been told that I'm a Scrooge just b/c I can give 2 shits about xmas, bdays, v-day etc.

Today - I was told I suck b/c I am "not doing anything" for Halloween. I mean really? Is it that serious?? Who REALLY celebrates Halloween after their 13? LOL. To date...

--> X-mas / if you're a kid I'll play the game w/ you --- but adults? SWING AND A MISS! Save it. NO you aren't getting shit.

--> Thanxgiving / This is prob the most important to me b/c the family gets together. Mind you I am not "Family Guy" but I still enjoy seeing every1 all at once. This is prob THE holiday that I put effort into when I can.

--> Valentine's Day / Really? When I DO have a gf (rare - lol) I show them how much I care on a regular basis. I don't need to be "prompted" to show that I care on this day. No thanx - not interested.

--> BDAY / Again, if you're a kid yes. Then 16th, 21st, 30th, 40th, 50th, 60th, 70/75 and after 80 take me out b/c I've seen enough. I get nasty-grams b/c I "forgot" some1s 23rd - really? Get over it. LOL.

Which holidays do you care about, which ones do you not, and why.

I'm a Vet as well (you already know that). I thank God for them everyday though. I really don't do anything special on V-day except get tons of "thank you" texts from people. LOL

I have respect for Veteran's Day from growing up with a dad who was a Marine, but I don't ''celebrate'' it. I just make sure to say something to any Vet's I see. lol

I like going to the bars and finding WWII vets and Nam vets on veterans day and swapping stories with them.

I care most about Christmas and Thanksgiving. I don't even care that much about my birthday (although I used to) because my birthday is 5 days before Christmas so I don't normally have anyone to share my birthday with. My birthdays have (if not all) been bad. I've decided there is no need to make a big deal about it anymore :(

Ren you've been posting a lot lately - kool. Where have u been?


Work has died off as far as busyness and I dont start school again until November 30th so I need some form of entertainment throughout the day..
This summer was so busy.. I had school and then went to Israel for 15 days and then went to Cancun, been to a bunch of business meetings in NC with my boyfriend (he owns his own business) and back and forth from Pittsburgh (which is where he lives).. so yeah things are finally calming down before they start getting busy again for the Holidays!

I like holidays because they break up the routine that we all find ourselves getting into.

Christmas is nice because you get to decorate and your home has a different "vibe" to it for a little while.

Thanksgiving is nice. I don't get to see my entire family because only my immediate family lives in the states. But i like to cook and go out out so that plus family and whoever I find that doesn't have anyone to spend it with usually end up at the table.

Halloween. Dressed up for the first time since I was four last year. I had a great time so I can't dis it.

New Years- It one of the FEW times in a year where you can actually get more the 3 friends to get together in one place.

Valentines Day- I don't believe in required gifts. The company of my sig other is enough for me.

Birthday- I try to make sure I wish ppl a happy birthday. You never know how much it means to some ppl that you remembered them. Ex- one kid here at work birthday was coming up. Shy kid. I bought an itty bitty cake and we all "celebrated" (if you can even call it that) during our 10 min afternoon break. He cried. He had never had a birthday cake before. He was 21.
My birthday is Cinco de Mayo. So there is always a party going on :)

Distance relationships suck. I can't say that I would ever engage in another one of those unless she was filthy rich - LOL. It just gets too complicated - expensive - etc. Then the thought that "is there REALLY no1 I can see eye-to-eye with between my house and the 9 hours it takes me to get to your house?" - LOL.

Good to see u back on the boards though kiddo.

The only holiday I hate is Halloween. I hate little bastards coming up to my door and effectively saying "gimme shit or else"... It's a holiday designed to make them Democrats. Lulz.

But the rest of the Holidays I don't have a problem with.

None anymore really since my grandparents died. They kept the whole big ass family I have together. Used to have a big Thanksgiving dinner and big Christmas dinner every year. The end Christmas dinner meant time for gifts to be passed out lol. Hell when even had two or three other get-to-gather's a year just for the hell of it or for Easter and Halloween lol. But I don't really get into holidays anymore, not even my own birthday. Like this year I just got drunk and sat at home because the five people that said they would drive around ditched me.
