on holidays

Holidays are very interesting because they either are A) great or B) become almost burdensome and bring out the worst. They are either WONDERFUL because all of your relationships are good and in the right places, and if they're not, well it sucks because they REMIND you of how awful things are because problems are always magnified during the holidays. I'm reading Holidays on Ice by Sedaris, one of my favs, it's making me smile during these days. Thank God for dark humor and quick sarcastic wit.
