People are so funny!

Today at work all I heard from every direction was what people were going through trying to get ready for the "big day" (Christmas). It didn't bother me... I just oohed and aahed to everything they said. Later in the day someone brought up that I had it easy because I wasn't Christian. A fairly new... and rather young woman.. asked "you aren't Christian?" I responded no, I am pagan. She asked "Why did you become a pagan?" I responded... so I don't have to do any shopping in December. She looked at me with this blank look on her face and said "Really?" I said no but didn't expand on it... I think she was in shock. LOL People are just too funny!
