Yeah, "merry" is used overwhelmingly here -- which is kind of funny, because it's about the only time it's used! When's the last time you heard it used outside this season? It's like it's trapped in a snow globe of All Things Holiday. And yet.... in this snow globe, "Merry" and "Holiday" do not play together. It's always Happy Holidays. Guess we're just THAT fond of alliteration, lol.
Hope everyone's having a good one/day/night whether doing anything specific to it or not. Hey! I'm envisioning that (ok, this is a
really big snow globe..) there is a cozy little place in it for everyone who's not doing anything to just hang out together. Oh wait! That's PC!

Ya know.... it is actually snowing for real here tonight (not my regular location) for the first time. Maybe it IS a snow globe!!!
