[Cadaverous Pallor]

Every time I make new friends and it gets around December, the questions start.

There are a few moms I know that seemingly have never encountered someone who doesn't celebrate Christmas. It's quite amusing how they scrunch their foreheads, working very hard to keep their brains from melting as they ask "do you get gifts from all your relatives for all eight days?" and "no tree, no nothing?"

I don't know if I'm expanding minds or just making myself look like an alien being.
