My birthday is in early December, sometime during my early teen years, I made a house rule, that no decorations could go up and Christmas couldn't exist until after my birthday. (I got a little sick of the "combo" gifts or you'll get a better present at Christmas)
I maintained that when I moved out on my own, even though I don't give a rats patooty about my birthday anymore.. Christmas doesnt exist until it's come.
