    The talk of Christmas got me thinking. What thoughts do you associate with different holidays?

    Haloween- Dress up, get trashed and have a good time.
    Thanksgiving- Roadtrips to New Mexico.
    Christmas- Big tree with presents.
    Valentine's Day- Eat a lot of heart shaped candy. (not romantic at all)
    Easter Sunday- Eat a giant meal. (Like Thanksgiving, but with lamb, rather than turkey)
    St. Patrick's Day- Wear green, and drink green beer.
    4th of July- Barbeque and blow stuff up.

    These are the only holidays I take much notice of. I think I need more holidays to celebrate.

    xmas - presents, family, food, fun, no work or school, hurrah!
    halloween - the agony of deciding on a costume, the bars being disgustingly full and very few trick or treaters as of late, but I still really really look forward to it
    thanksgiving - food and friends. usually the holiday we invite over friends whos families are not so great or live far(ish) away
    august long weekend - Fringe festival! volunteering, friends, drinking, and super late nights

    vday and easter are just candy days... my grandma likes to buy lots of candy and send it to me cuz she's silly and wonderful like that

    Halloween: Get smashed and worship the devil. And Aladdin.
    (4)
    Thanksgiving: Hang out with family and get turkey drunk.
    (3)
    X-mas: Don't do the jesus thing, but like the break. See all my folks.
    (6)
    New years: Very smashed and lots of kissing.
    (2)
    Valentines: Less smashed, lots of kissing, and Candy.
    (5)
    Easter: Candy. but no break and little kissing.
    (8)
    Veterans Day: No body appreicates what I do for the country, But I usually get drunk out of spite.
    (7)
    4th of july: Drunk, Barbeque, friends, explosives, and kissing.
    (1) Number one all the way!

    Shit, I can't believe that I forgot about New Years. I spend those getting drunk with friends, just like everybody else.


    You're right about Veteran's Day though. I respect people who've served, but I don't really pay much attention to it.

    I wish! I wish there were cooler girls in my area. The problem is that we're all thinking the same thing.

    How cold is it there ihmurria?
    After today, I decided that I'm not leaving the house for the next three weeks and the next time will only be when I leave to the airport to go back to the sunny and warm ENGLAND! I don't understand how I've ever managed to survive in such a cold weather. :(
