My absolute favorite time of year (my wife's too). But, if you're not a reasonably observant Christian and/or not surrounded by kids, then I can see how it would be a beating. As much as I love it, my wife is even more off the hook. Before we had kids, we'd go to a Christmas Eve gathering at her sister's, then midnight Mass and then spend the night there. On Christmas morning, she would wake up early, roust my nieces and nephew, so that they could go and wake up their parents and open presents and all that. In short, my wife is nuts.

Same here. But I love Christmas, again as a Christian. I don't tend to get caught up in the crap foisted on us.

I enjoy it more now because I take the week after Christmas as vacation and I get to spend a lot of time with my wife. It sort of reminds me why we're married and all. | The Guinness.
