I drive a long way, see family. I then drive a longer way, see more family. After that I drive some more and we do the same thing for wife's family.
Oh, and at some point my wife and I exchange gifts. Christmas week is exhausting.

Family, food and goodies, no gods required.
Merry Winter Foodfest to everyone, or Summer Foodfest for those south of the equator!

My son won't be with me for the first time in ten years. My mom is going out of town. I'm in the middle of a breakup. I'll be working that day.
It doesn't look to be a promising Christmas -- yet, i can goddamned well set aside a day for peace on Earth, good will towards men
In the meantime, bleh.

Yes, we celebrate Christmas. Our town always has what amounts to a city-wide street party (not as impressive as that sounds - 7000 people). So, aside from roaming about town, listening to music and gorging on street food, the missus and I plan to exchange gifts and spend a fair bit of time banging it out.
