For people who don't celebrate Christmas,napali latest sex kanda video the day itself can fill you with dread.

There's no waking up to presents, no massive feast for lunch, dinner or eating leftovers on the ensuing days.

It's just another day, except most stores and activities are closed, while everyone else is having a ball. So what do you do?

If you're anything like this writer, Christmas was just never a thing in your house. Maybe you don't celebrate it for religious reasons. Maybe you just can't stand the carols.

You might even find it difficult to tell people that you don't do anything to mark Christmas, because it's so widely assumed that everyone did at least *something.*

Here's how those in the Mashable office who don't observe Christmas like to spend their day, after sleeping in and eating toast for brunch, of course.

1. Treat yourself to a present, so you don't feel left out

Giving a gift to yourself is a scene right out of Mr. Bean, but screw it!

Get yourself that new stereo. That nice new TV. Those tickets to that gig. You deserve it. You survived the year, right? Treat yourself.

2. Head out and eat Chinese food. Or anything that's open, really.

The eating of Chinese food on Christmas Day is a ritual amongst many Jewish people in the U.S., as it's often migrant-run restaurants that stay open when others are shut.

In Australia for instance, you can pop yourself down to a Vietnamese or Middle Eastern restaurant that's open on Christmas Day.

Or you get yourself fed at the few fast food outlets open on the day.

End the brutal social embarrassment of having never seen Black Mirror, Westworldetc. once and for all.

Or just get ahead of the post-Christmas box office rush by seeing a new movie at the cinema before everyone else does.

4. Go to a park and watch folks play with their new toys

Because we're not jealous. Not at all.

5. Go on holiday to somewhere warmer

If it's freezing wherever you are, it's worth considering a trip away somewhere for the holiday period where you can get a bit more sun and not worry about people doing the Christmas thing.

Anywhere quiet and moderately warm will do. As long as there's no carolling.

6. Catch up on work you were going to do

While we don't know what that entails for you personally, you should definitely do it now while the world is on pause.

You have a solid two-day window in which to email people without getting an instant reply. Bliss.
