I did a not actually at all very similar story over in Voyager fandom. (The similarity stopped at latkes, actually; yours was a lot more poignant and arguably much better written.) But anyway, I did that because I was feeling run over by the flood of Christmas stories that particular year (oops, mixing metaphors, sorry), and hey, no, NOT everyone celebrates Christmas and *yes*, Rodney has it exactly right about the little dinky menorah standing next to the big honking Christmas tree, and the latkes next to the Christmas ham (or turkey). Gah.
Anyway, you and your story rock. :) Thanks for posting it.
P.S. Did you go to Stonybrook? 'Coz I saw a post of yours in my brother's LJ (he's a filker), which was more cognitive dissonance, like running across someone from one of your worlds in quite another world, and he said he thinks you were a Forumite. So I thought I'd ask, and I'm finally getting around to it a few weeks later. :)

Yes I went to stonybrook and yes I am a forumite. But your brother and I met at ICON. I help run that enouormous drain of energy. :)
I was really tired when i wrote this, there's a few tweaks looking back I might have added. But otherwise it expressed my annoyance with the season pretty well. Though someone accused it of being antichristmas, which it is most certainly not. *grins*
