Life I'm having a miserable time gettin into the spirit

So, nobody really celebrates Christmas for the original religious purpose? Not to be a wanker, but that might be part of the problem. If you view Christmas as nothing more than a material goods holiday (which is sadly what it's become) then yeah, I can definitely imagine it being a very depressing time of year. I personally can't stand the "Christmas Season" as our society defines it, but I look forward to Advent every year on the Church calendar. I mean, I like Santa and A Christmas Story and all that, but really to me there has to be much more to it, otherwise it IS just another day that one must simply endure.

Please, I don't want to get into a big religious discussion, I just figured I'd point that out.
