Indeed. Since I don't celebrate the traditional holidays either, the time between Halloween and Chinese New Year is my "Winterfest" - essentially I could put up festive lights, or not, decorate a tree inside my house if I have the time or inclination... bake lots of yummy things to give away, again as time dictates. Basically all the religious and American holidays with none of the guilt or obligation.
It really ticks my parents off. Oh and 420? Thirteen states and the district, medicine not poison, I say.
I'm not sure 52 is enough. Maybe by the time I die I'll have filled the calendar, and will have a reason to celebrate every day!
December 27th was empty, but seeing how it's sierra's birthday, definitely going to have to get up early, meditate, intimidate the surly teller at the bank, and raise a glass in her honor. That gives me a pretty full day.
Frankly, I think you already are. And you can even ignore it altogether.
Well it was kind of a rhetorical question but yes, I do already celebrate my own way.

Perhaps the "crappiness" just gets more press. I do think you seem to have a rather dismal perspective of things. What the heck ails ya?
Dismal? I wouldn't call it that, but of course it's MY philosophy of life so I suppose I wouldn't. I like to think of it as "enlightened cynicism". What ails me? Nothing at all. I'm quite satisfied and happy. One often gets that way when one sees the way things truly are and doesn't feel the need to march to everyone else's tune.

I just happen to have that date open, so now December 27th is International Sierra Day!

She's also the one you'll see in the background of wedding pics of other couples sitting in the Limo or helping the groom cut the cake.
Everybody will give a good looking blond with a great laugh (and nice boobs) the benefit of the doubt. Me and you can't pull it off.
Hahaha - we get a lot of people coming into the club here that try that. We've learned to ask for ID - it saves a lot of free drinks. But of course, none of them look like your wife - I understand how she can do it but you and I cannot!

Nice! That same time period for me is what I call "Hibernatorium" - I still celebrate my holidays but stay in my man-cave to do it.

What better reason to do it than to tick your parents off? And, let's make burnt offerings in the hopes of every state in the Union coming to their senses.

Yes, that's what I'm working on also!

That just goes to show the beauty of our system - diversity. I'm going to sleep late, masturbate, jump the bones of a bank of tellers and raise a magnum in her honor.
