This is therapy with spell check. Instead of seeking answers to actual problems, however, I will be petty and superficial. It's less work. Please enjoy.
I lived in Toronto about 25 years ago. I always did find the American version of the holiday strange. Apparently something got lost in translation coming across the border.
I think I first heard it through an Australian friend of mine. Still not exactly sure of its origin, or what one's supposed to do, aside from "Boxing Day Sales", which happen in other countries.
I think you pack up the ornaments and put them in boxes for the next year. Or maybe it's an Australian thing and it involves kangaroos and animal abuse. It wouldn't surprise me knowing Aussies.
I'm a self-absorbed artist type who just re-relocated from Los Angeles to San Francisco to Los Angeles. In LA self-absorbed artist types have head shots. In San Francisco they have single gear bicycles, which are much more difficult to hand out. I hosted some shows for TV and TV.com, and I do stand-up.

Merry New Years.
