Christmas is for the kids. If I decorate, it's because I'm expecting visiting nieces and nephews, not because I had some overwhelming urge to fancy up some forestry.

It's time off, I occasionally get some good stuff and I get to show those that are close that I care about them by buying them cheaply made things from far away countries at outrageous prices.

To be a bit serious for a moment, I've never really celebrated Christmas for religious reasons. Even as a kid, either in my own home or the homes of others, the religious aspect of the holiday just wasn't there. So, while I recognize the need for others to celebrate Christmas as a religious holiday, I don't exactly....understand it? Does that make any sense?
