I truly love the essence of Christmas, unfortunately it has been buried so deep under piles of commercialism and stress.
I agree 100%. I probably enjoy Christmas more, but not when you take into account the stress associated with it. So, I'll vote for turkey day.

I gotta go blow a bunch of money that I don't have, tomorrow, so that I'm not EVIL.

Like a putz I voted for the wrong one. Anyway, I meant to put Christmas. My mother's family were all from the U.K. so we didn't have any Thanksgiving traditions. My boyfriend is English too and couldn't care less about it, so like Brian said, it's just one more Thursday. I've always loved Christmas though.

I voted for Christmas, although for some reason the past two years I just haven't been about to "get into" it

It's better than showing up with nothing, when they've all bought something for me(AFTER I've asked them not to!), looking like Scrooge. FWIW, this is relatively new behavior. Only after Mom died, did they start getting stuff for me.


Other than a newer truck, there's NO gift that I really want, anyway.

How hilarious is that ending? That episode gets a lot of slack, but I thought it was hilarious!

I like Halloween best to be honest, but I do prefer Christmas over Thanksgiving. The lights, cutting down our tree, Christmas music, seeing someone's face light up because you found then the perfect gift. Oh, and my kick-ass cookies, of course.
