In response to "Based on my exposure to US culture, I thought this was normal for Thanksgiving? -- nm" by Roger More

My friends and family (and even I'm prone to this) get cranky the week or two after Thanksgiving.


Dealing with relatives we didn't really want to spend time with, but were forced to (because Thanksgiving). Then lingering travel headaches. And feeling out of sorts from so much rich food (and booze for some of us).

And then coming back to work the week after to a load of crap left undone, only to realize that we have to finish shopping for Christmas gifts and finish all other preparations for Christmas and New Year's in about 2-3 weeks.

"And oh my God, what am I going to do for New Year's Eve?" starts setting in now, too.
