And just like that, it's all over. People say, "but the Holidays are still here," but it doesn't feel like it. New Years is a totally different holiday than Christmas. New Years celebrations are nothing like Christmas celebrations except for the people gathering and eating. The gift-giving (and receiving) is over, and people are starting to resort back to their typical I'm-better-than-you-so-bug-off mentality. Yeah, I'm excited that 2007 is almost over, and I'm sure fireworks will be fun as ever, but I hate that Christmas disappears so quickly. We should turn Christmas into like a week-long celebration. That whole Twelve Days of Christmas, we should resurrect that! Christmas is like your birthday: it takes forever to get here, suddenly it's right around the corner, and then in a flash it's gone! Every year I realize about 7 pm on December 25th that Christmas is over for the year. After 7, most people I know are starting to head home and get ready for the work day ahead. I dunno, it just sucks.
On the brighter side of life, how was your Christmas? Get good stuff? Fine, if you insist, I'll list what I got cuz I know you're just dying to find out.

did someone else make you a scarf or is this assumed future belated gifts? ;)
Dude, you should totally pull a "Morgan Holidays". Starts with your birthday on the 23; 24: Christmas Eve; 25, yadda, yadda; but THEN: make Boxing day your own. Badabing, four days instead of two. :D
You need to post more. =(
Oh and, by the way, Happy New Years!
