merry christmas eve

the holidays just don't mean the same to me anymore.

when my son was young, i decorated and we celebrated for the month of December.  i always tried to make it as festive and happy as possible.

having spent the last 12+ years alone at the holidays, i basically dread it now.  i tortured myself yesterday and watch about 5 Christmas movies.  people happy.  people in love.  people loving the "magic" of Christmas. 

i just don't find any magic about it anymore. i don't decorate.  it's so much about commercialism and how much money you have to buy expensive gifts for people. 

ugh.  i have a throbbing headache.  but here i am.  at work.  at 2:00pm on Christmas Eve with no where to go and no one who cares whether or not i'm alone. 

it is almost as if it wouldn't matter at all if i weren't here anymore.  i mean seriously.  who would notice or give a fuck since they don't notice or give a fuck now.

no snow in sight, the sun is out.  it sucks.
