War on Chanukah

Dec 12, 2011 10:44

Had a somewhat depressing weekend. Wanted to buy Chanukah decorations so that I can finally decorate and found NOTHING. It's not like I live in the middle of bumfuck nowhere. I live on LI. Jewish people are all over the place. What the fuck, dollar stores?! And Seasons had a sad section for Chanukah. Will have to try again this weekend. Maybe hit Cedarhurst Paper or Party City.

At least I have my Menorah. Will have to raid the parents for their never ending supply of dreidles.

Meanwhile, housemates and I decorated for Christmas. It was my first time ever going out to buy a tree (let alone decorate one). It was... an experience. Picking the tree took about 30 seconds. I've always heard stories of it taking hours and driving to different lots to find the "perfect tree" We lucked out. After going to Family Dollar, the Christmas Store in PJ, and Dollar Tree, we decorated the tree. I was kinda hoping that Christmas music would be playing while we were decorating, but there was no music. ::pout::

While out looking for decorations, I was trying to find clear ornaments so that I could make Chanukah ornaments for myself, but the closest I got to clear ornaments was ALREADY DECORATED clear ornaments. How helpful. -_-

::sigh:: If one more person tells me there's a War on Christmas, I'm going to rub their noses in it!
