Grinch-ish

Anyone else worried about seeing 3 ghosts on Christmas eve like I (Marty) am? I think that the only reason that I have not seen "The trio", as I call them is because I live with Jill. And she is full of it...Christmas cheer that is. I usually am fully into my grinch suit by now but I am making a big effort to not be so bah-humbug! I can slowly feel myself slipping back into my suit each time I go to the store, I'm looking at you Wal-mart. Everytime I come out of that place with my migrane and my cheap stuff in the cart in front of me. I swear getting out of there alive is a battle. Each time I get home I swear I am never going to go there again, but that only lasts a week till I need something else. Every year I swear that there are going to be no presents just a card in everone's stocking that reads, "$50 was given to ______ in your name." Fill in the blank with "The Troops" or "Cancer research." I can see all of the little mushroom clouds over certain people's heads already begining to form. But isn't that what it is all about. I often say dont get me anything cause honestly I don't need anything. I feel bad thinking that people feel like they need to get me something. If I got a half set of encyclopedias or a horrible looking hoodie face hat thing I would be more than happy. Well I will hopefully continue to only have my feet in this year but I swear push me over the edge people and I will be suited up before you know!

I really hope everyone has a Happy Christmas and a Merry New Year!

I remember you having this same philosophy a few years ago. Are you going to ever get over it? Even being Santa Claus???

I will never get over hating christmas. Update: I am fully in the grinch costume! If anyone knows how to sew for my birthday I would like a Full body grinch suit. I will seriously wear it to work! Just like the one Jim Carey wears in my facorite movie, till the stupid ending!
