I found out because I was talking to my partner earlier "I don't have work on Friday I'm not sure about Monday though I'll need to check" "Monday is christmas I doubt you have work" "oh..."
If you aren’t rushing from store to store in a last minute panic induced mixture of rage and disappointment in yourself for letting it come to this, is it even Christmas?
This is kind of true. The liturgical day begins on sundown. So Christmas Day is technically after sundown on the 24th to the sundown of the 25th. Most of the day is spent on the 25th, in the christian calendar it's all on the 25th and the confusion only arises as the calendars clash.

That means I don't have to start my Christmas shopping for another 2 days.

I always like a good running all day store to store to find that last Turbo-Man just to finally remember you didn't get anything for your wive.

Company Christmas party last weekend I got a new jacket. It's been too warm outside to wear it. Doesn't feel like Christmas at all.
