Fuck, its such a nightmare and its a nightmare because we all care about trying to get that perfect gift that the ones we love will actrually love and appriciate, but also it reflects how much we care in some fucked up way right. They say "its the thought that counts", which is true, but somehow that reallly gets lost in the mix of the hustle and bustle. Sometimes gifts are so shitty, its an insult to recieve them, cmon its true. Like the time my mom got a ceramic goose from the dollar store from her sister, then for her birthday she received the MATCHING one. Just insulting man. ....Anyway, Just remember this holiday season that soap and candles should be a last resort and when in doubt go with gift certs and wine. The holiday season is here, as someone in retail sales its really a mental time, but I embaced the crazyness a long time ago when I was working Boxing Day at Bootlegger at age 14. I have learned that holiday crazyness earns you holiday goodness like:
-drinking pretty much at any time of the day-spending money and not feeling bad
-having a cigar, why not
-indulging in high fat foods and not caring either
-wearing fancy clothes for whatever reason
-baking stuff and sharing it
-drinking, did i say that already?
-catching up with people that you really do care about
See, times can be good, keep it simple and enjoy yourself, this season only happens once a year, life is too short to not sit back with a 12 yr scotch by a warm fire and bunny slippers. and if anyone pisses you off, quickly brush it off and move on and drink another glass of fine wine.Thats my best advice!! ahahahahah
Dont forget you can do a niffty litttle scavenger hunt organized by the Fernie Chamber, once completed you can earn discounts at local shops, like Freyja for example. How neeat eh. Kinda?
Look for more info on the posters around town.
