I admit, I am a scrooge.

I've been trying for years to figure out why I get a little down around the holidays. I've come to the conclusion that I'm just jealous of how all the made for TV movie characters are just so incredibly happy on Christmas. All these years I've been watching people have Christmas miracles. Think about it...all those Christmas TV specials involve the main characters having some sort of earth shattering, life altering Christmas. And yet the cold harsh reality is that I've never really had any earth shattering experience for Christmas...nope...not once have I been reunited with any long lost lover, I've never gotten a red rider bb gun or a pony for christmas, I've never sang my way out of nazi germany. All these TV movies are great because it's what everyone wants to see....but unfortunately for me, I think they've given me some unrealistic expectations for Christmas. Am I alone here?

Where's the made for TV christmas movie that involves an ordinary guy getting a crappy sweater that he'll never wear?
