Goddammit. I don't actually hate December. It's actually one of my favorite months. What I DO hate is the "holiday" season. As of now, I am totally swearing off shopping during the month. Next year, the day before Thanksgiving, I am going to stock up on food, commodities, or whatever for the coming month and I'm not going back out there until after the New Year! Even if it means I have to live off deliveries of Chinese food and pizza. Hm, maybe I could talk the Indian restaurant across the street into delivering. Yum.
