      Unless you hate Christmas, then it’s a sudden bucket of suck, then a release back into those lovely routines and coping mechanisms.

      Hmm. I might be a little broken though. Don’t be like me, enjoy your Christmasses!

      Edit: Actually, it’s not so sudden, it’s between a 3 and 12 month to Christmas each year, depending on your age/ access to advertising.

        No don’t answer that, I know what you mean:-P.

      sounds like northeastern United States. As soon as I had enough money I moved to the tropics. No more gloomy 6 months every year. I couldn’t bear it.

        Northeastern USA is extremely cold compared to temperate Europe.

        Though that is nothing compared to north midwestern states, brrr… did you know that at some point, the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales converge? :-P

          I took your fun fact to a search engine and learned something new today 😄

          The Fahrenheit and Celsius scales converge at -40°.

          The formula used to convert Celsius© into Fahrenheit(F) is: F = 9 5 × C + 32.

      Funny thing is in our temperate zone the whole festive christmas time is in autumn and christmas itself is at the beginning of winter. Why not move christmas to end of February or so?
