It's very wierd,
My family has always called me Mr. Holiday. In Germany we always haad 15-16 foot trees, home made eggnog (talk about work!) tree trimming parties...decorations, the works.
But try having Christmas in Miami!?!? 85° yesterday and Santa walking around in short red pants with fur trim! I kid you not! Although I love the waether the rest of the year, it's hard to get any kind of christmas feeling when everything is SO damn green and lush and you're walking around in a tank top and shorts and laying by the pool...
The only christmas cheer I feel is walking into Starbucks (decorated since mid October...:-( ) where the X-mas music is in full swing and the air conditioning at -20.
Jingle Bells to all anyway :-)
