PC Holidays

It's that time of year again, the time when everyone decides to up the politically correct bar so that everything is either "offensive" or a lawsuit. All I have to say here is: Really?  I mean really? Come on people. No one is offended by saying a Christmas tree is just that, a CHRISTMAS tree. And if you are i suggest you seriously reevaluate your priorities. I'm Catholic so for me, this is Advent, and Christmas goes until February or January, (depending on the calendar or location) it's a technical thing, but I'm not going to get offended if someone decides to say Merry Christmas. Or Happy Hanukkah (actually I think that would be cool because I don"t think thats ever happened). And I would hope no one freaks out if I say Happy New Year because I'm excited about the new liturgical year, or Merry Christmas in January, because that is what it is for me.

I'm really excited for this now (side note)! I get to celebrate holidays for weeks, or months, instead of days, and because we do so much preparation and anticipation its all that much more exciting. As a good friend of mine once said "ain't no party like a Catholic party cuz a Catholic party don't stop!"
