Holidaze

Are you sick of the hype? The commercial frenzie to buy everyone you know a gift? A small token of a years worth of knowing them? The media madness to make you want to go to a mall, although you hate shopping? The holiday traffic, the crowds, the tension, the advertisements.

I am not alone. Many are sick of what the American Christmas has become. Cheap plastic lawn ornaments from China. Lighting up your home exterior, so your electric bill can double in January. The cheesy work parties. Maxing out your budget to be able to afford a good Xmas. I say it loud & clear fuck Christmas!

This holiday season no longer stands for what it used to. It has been ruined by over-commercial corporate crap. I will happily celebrate the Winter Solstice in the middle of nowhere instead.
