Is It Over Yet?

(peeking out from inside the closet) Is it safe yet? Has the cookie and eggnog induced frenzy ended? Have people stopped talking about a big guy in a red suit yet? Have the elves and reindeer returned to the North Pole? Has everyone stopped fighting about who owns the religious copyrights to the season? Is it safe to walk into a store yet, without being trampled, pushed, or otherwise treated badly? Can we take down the fake trees and greenery and get on with our lives now?

Someone please tell me it's over for another year!
