The holidays this year are going to suck. Every year of my life has been almost the same during the holidays: Thanksgiving dinner and Christmas morning at Grandma's. Alas, my Grandma passed away this summer, so that will not be the case this year.

I hate change, especially such a sad one such as this. I'm sure we will create a new tradition, with my wife and friends, but it still won't be the same. It will never be the same...
