Top 10 Things I hate about Christmas

10. Purchasing things I normally wouldn't buy, this reinforces the idea that excess is normal.
9. Christmas trees are messy and heavy.
8. Expectations are high and rarely met.
7. Wrapping presents, someone please invent spray on wrapping.
6. Shopping, way too many choices, colors, lights, textures, buttons, features.
5. Waiting until the last minute to shop, Christmas Eve at Wal-Mart, anyone?
4. Failing to get out a single Christmas card not even an email, oh the guilt.
3. Way too much to do in such a short period of time, as if I didn't already have the list from hell, here's one more.
2. It is the busiest time of year for my company. Clients take wonderful vacations while I crank out work for them to review when they return refreshed.
1. I love all of it.
