Theoretically, I love the holidays… in a 30 second commercial.
A few years ago when I WASN’T invited to a stranger’s funeral, I went. Everyone was so – – well – – emotionally predictable. No manic outbursts, arguing, or threats of cutting anything illegal. Everyone’s temperament was unpretentiously grief-stricken.
We weren’t attending a reading of the Will, so nobody complained about what they didn’t get.
I didn’t have to schlep to a store I hate for a gift I didn’t want to buy.
Instead of being forced to exchange pleasantries, I had a word with the guy in the box; his ear beckoned with no desire to reciprocate.
Needless worrying about what to wear was kyboshed. One sweep of my closet revealed that I lived in “funeral” attire.
Happy Holidays…
