A Festivus for the Rest of Us!
One of my all-time favorite seinfeld episodes. "I went on christmas eve to buy a doll for my son, and I reached for the last one; so did another man. As I rained blows upon him, I knew there had to be another way!"

Also, I celebrate christmas in a purely secular fashion, but my family doesn't know that yet...they still do the whole religious aspect. You know, santa...the cookies. lol

Yes I love Christmas, and now that I have a little boy it's even more fun.

I believe this to be true to. Kids really add to the overall joy. At least I feel this way. Now that my son is 2.5 yrs old, he is getting more into things and enjoys the decorations, the songs etc. I find it much fun to watch him experience things for the first time. I get to do this again when my daughter hits that age.

Yes, but Christmas has always been a secular event for my family, including the extended part. We always get together, exchange gifts, eat, and spend time together. It's been even better lately with the little ones; my niece and nephews (8, 5, 2, respectively) now "get" what's going on and are just crazy about it. They really bring the excitement back.

I celebrate it, in a non religious way.

I use Christmas, as more or less my time to "veg out" and cool off. I more or less work all year round, and then have a nice 1 to 2 weeks off from the 20th or so, till the 2nd or so in January. Thats my only major time off this year.

I then use it for buying hi-end products, to then save me from doing it all year round (t.v's etc etc) headphone stuff get a pass, for all year round.

Then, I use it for buying presents, and getting them if I am nice enough I guess.

And the smell of a fresh cut tree, and tv shows with Chirstmas episodes. Thats it

In other words, in the true spirit of any Yiddish-speaking Lower-East-Side decendent, "what're yeh crazy?"

I am not religious at all, but I do celebrate Christmas with my (Christian) family.

For me, it really is more about sharing family, friends, some good food and drink, and of course, giving thoughtful gifts to your loved ones. If we had family members who were Jewish, African or Muslim, etc., I would gladly incorporate all in the festivities. I may not participate religiously, but it's nice to be able to enjoy and be included in something that's important to your loved ones.

Kwanzmasukkah anyone?
