After many years of shitty Christmases .... I refuse to leave the house on Christmas Day or any time from Christmas to New Years.

Y'all crazy and insane out there and I don't want to meet, talk or see any of you in person during this time of year.

I've prepared my home base and I can live here with enough food for a month and enough entertainment for two lifetimes.

Ooh I like your style. I will hunt you down and I will inflict my friendship upon you.

Sadly I have to venture forth tomorrow or the day after for sustenance. Other than that I'm with you, people are nuts this time of year and are best avoided.

What entertainment are you enjoying? I started watching "For All Mankind" this week. So I'd like to get all caught up on that.

I think it's true because I'm in a really wealthy suburban area right now and there've been so many police sirens at night lately. Like WTF is going on? drunk drivers, car accidents, domestic violence, drug overdoses?

I think people do go nuts the week between Christmas and New Year's because all the white collar people are off work a whole week and it's party time for them
