While I did get a few presents ( will post them when I get back in ), I too understand the whole uncomfortableness there can be with Christmas. The constant barrage of imagery, platitudes, and commercialism can get on one if you aren't living the life portrayed. This isn't a knock on anyone, quite the opposite. I would hope everyone appreciates having people to give gifts to. There are those that find this time of the year a bit of burden though, and just hope to get through with sanity intact.
