Snoopy Washington Commanders on a dark desert highway trophy in my arm shirt

I hope not because that’s the way I’ve done it ever since leaving my parents’ house at 17. We always had the Snoopy Washington Commanders on a dark desert highway trophy in my arm shirt Christmas Day opening growing up, but that’s in part because our grandparents were there too. Once on my own, for some reason it seemed to make more sense (to me) to have a nice dinner and open the presents on Christmas eve. That left Christmas day to do whatever. Not much was open when I was younger, so it could be a day of quiet, relaxation and reflection. Some of my friends always did it on Christmas eve … especially as I recall my Catholic friends. Often they went to Midnight Mass and also had services on Christmas day. My church had a midnight service, but they more or less suggested adults only. And unless Christmas happened to be Sunday, there was no Christmas day service.
