Christmas is coming up and everyone is all excited and full of good cheer, well they hopefully are. It's a good time of year and such, everyone gets a little more cash spending friendly and businesses make more cash, the muggers in the park get a better turn over and our stomachs get nice and fat, people throw presents around and such but the truth about this time of year is that it actually is a time to see who made it through the year.
So many people think about making plans for this time of year, months in advance but how many people really make it? Lot's of people die each day and some of them may have had many plans, looking forward to seeing family they've missed and looking forward to all the festivities but now they're a lot number in a cemetery. Death isn't the only thing that goes wrong though. Some may have planned to spend their holidays with their lovers but all of a sudden things changed and now they're the only ones pulling the crackers. I see this time of year as a countdown. It's like playing a game of survivor. You're trying to be the last man standing and once you've gone and done that, you make a point of notching it down by filling your gullet with all those tasties. New Years is no different. You get to Christmas and you think you've made it and then all of a sudden you get run over by a bus on your way home on boxing day. It sucks.
