When every day is a holiday....

Talking with S tonight after she bitched me out for spending too much on A's presents this Christmas. Apparently even though my dad is buying these particular presents, I'm still not supposed to spend the money on him. So we got to talking and I explained how I was tired in my soul from all the running around of late. She didn't get it. She said "but you don't need to, not for me" (at least for Christmas, right?).

She's right though--I didn't for her, but I did for A and I. I want a Christmas. I want a tree and presents for him and a special dinner. Isn't it important that he learn that part of his culture? Isn't it important to have special days that you celebrate friends and family and do special things? Her first reaction was to cancel everything! S told me that for her, so long as you're happy "every day is like a holiday".

So what is it when you're not?
