>Though I have a pretty high respect for some foreign national holidays
We don't really celebrate ours, not on a large scale. There are some who quite loudly insist on celebrating it, but they're seen as quite weird for doing so. In general America has an optimistic spirit at it's core that makes me quite envious. /)
>Also, if you mind me asking.
I don't mind, it's me. Anybody could say it's me, of course. I don't like feeling as though I come back once a year just to say 'look it's me!' and then disappear again though, so I didn't say it was me this time.
