Last night I wished the grocery store checkout clerk "Merry Christma-Hanna-Kwanzaa-Kah" with a joking demeanor. She replied, "Merry what you said, I could never repeat that." We both laughed. She's been one of my favorite grocery store checkout clerks for more years than I can remember.

This afternoon I wished the third furnace repairmen of the month "Merry Christmas," after observing that he was white, he was over 50, his name was Roy, and his accent pure Tidewater. He said, "same to you."

Honestly, I think the season for saying "Merry Christmas" starts Monday, it felt like I was jumping the gun. Office Christmas party is Monday. The senior partner's mother's spiked eggnog is killer. For me, that's the beginning of the Christmas season, Bob's mother's eggnog and a nap.
