Re: What do you hate about the holidays?

I prefer those with both likes and dislikes and definite, passionate about them. I find lukewarm people boring. If I'm going to be loved or hated, I want it to be intensely.

The crowds in big cities are mind-boggling during the holidays. I grew up in the NYC suburbs but never ventured into Manhattan until after the new year. A few years ago, my husband and I decided to spend a weekend in NYC before flying out to Florida to visit family for the holidays. I have never seen so many people in my life. Rockefeller Center looked like a sardine can. It was insane!

Being by myself. My family (what's left) is not close and I'm not married nor do I have any children or close friends.

A reading of Dickens' A Christmas Carol will get you in the holiday spirit.

No much, actually--with the exception of having to hear in stores or on the radio Paul McCartney's "Simply Having a Wonderful Christmas Time". I'm a pianist, and that song drives me nuts with it's repetition! Hopefully, the Beetles fans won't get on my case too much!
