Christmas, then and now

Then: “I can’t wait until Christmas!  It feels like it will never get here!”

Now: “Holy hell, it’s Christmas Eve?!  I need to buy 43 gifts by midnight!”

Then: “The winter break is only three weeks this year?  Lame.  I don’t want to go back to school.”

Now: “A three day weekend?  Oh thank God!”

Then: “I hope I get the fun toys I want!”

Now: “I hope I get that nose hair/eyebrow trimmer I need.”

Then: “New clothes?  BOOOOORING!”

Now: “New clothes?  Good, I’m too fat for all my old stuff.”

Then: “Is Grandpa drunk already?”

Now: “Why am I not drunk already?”
