I dont even like christmas...

FACT!!
ok, bah humbug, but seriously, how can you not find the season of goodwill seriously depressing?i mean christmas is fab when ur little, and its exciting-i remember my fav bit was seeing if rudolph 'ate' the carrot i left out...

But now, as soon as it gets to august, christmas starts appearing in the background...at first its this little whisper, as it gets to september, you have more chance of buying a stocking than a pair of school shoes, and eventually you think its totally normal to go to tesco and come back with a tin of quality street, a bag of tangerines and a packet of mince pies...before the end of october!!
I mean, people, how can you forget halloween-incidently, is this(well, apart from valentines day), the most ridiculous mad eup holiday ever!!but i digress, and anyway, i love halloween.

Back to christmas..ok so the bulid up can be kinda fun, but if your family is anything like mine, its just the most depressing thing ever to be surrounded by people all desperately trying not to kill the other with a turkey baster.
And whats more boring than the queens speech?and who actually likes quality street?
And as soon as its over, everyone gets all depressed and miserable in the anti climax, and then you realise the presents you bankrupted yourself buying are now available for half the original price...if you are bold enough to brave the january sales.Think primark on a saturday afternoon, then multiply volume of people by about 500 and your almost there. One more xmas conundrum...why do people camp outside for the next sale?!?!

All the above are perfectly legitimate reasons as to why my house currently resembles a grotto, with enough fairy lights to induce a seizure, and a tree so tacky it hurts to look at!:p

merry christmas.
and yes, im perfectly aware its still october.
