since 2016, i've hated christmas. deep trauma from the 2016 christmas season. that said, last the last few years since i became isolated from the outside world i've learned to enjoy it again. i truly, completely, enjoyed this christmas.
i think it's because since i don't interact with the outside world much, i don't have to keep getting reminded it's the christmas season. i can interact with it on my own terms and as much or little as i want. made it so much better.
