Ending is better than mending, as the fascists say. So I am going to buy nothing at all. This Christmas, I am going to just say no to the commercial "holiday spirit". I'd rather cook dinner with my family and friends. Instead of giving out cards, I will wish my friends a great holiday in person. I'm planning on some nice food, but not likely traditional food. I am thinking about fried tacos, beans from the pot, Mexican rice, guacamole and salsa. You know, a good old taco dinner.
I am not making any fucking ham. I am not making any fucking turkey. I am not buying into the commercial nature of the holidays. I will get to the core of what it is all about and spend Tuesday and Wednesday with the people who are most important to me. Peace on earth, indeed.
