Merry Christmas, yea-ah.

Christmas just isn't the same without certain people.

This time of year it seems like everyone's griefs multiply. All the cookies and parties can't fill the tremendous losses that seem to pile up by the year.

On the other hand, some people give you that "I-can't-believe-my-luck-how-did-you-know-this-is-exactly-what-I-wanted?" feeling all year round. Sitting in front of a Christmas tree with someone like that brings back a fraction of that six-year-old magic: maybe there IS a Santa...

Astoundingly, the extremes co-exist. Growing up is all about the contradiction.
