<sigh> How BB is much like Christmas...you spend months pouring your emotions, time (and bank account) into this time. You jump around with glee when the perfect present is purchased or made (or when your favorite BB player wins HOH). Since I was a child, I've looked forward to Christmas Eve & Morning for MONTHS... Our family celebrates Christmas on eve & Christmas morning. Then we do a brunch and usually everyone is napping by 2pm Christmas day. So come 2pm Christmas day, after the presents have been opened, food has been ate, toys have been played with, a Christmas "mourning" sinks in. A sadness creeps into my soul knowing that all that I've anticipated and worked for is over until next year. As an adult, this "depression" is even worse since I work so hard during the months leading up to Christmas. What, with the crafts to make and food to cook all for it to end in a too short 24 hours. The moral of my story is BB has become my "Summer Christmas" and as the end is today, I can already feel the BB "mourning" just like Christmas. The only good thing about this is now that BB is over, I can start my Christmas Anticipation! So, Happy Halloween, Happy Turkey Day, Merry Christmas (or whatever other holiday you celebrate) and Happy New Year. SEE YOU NEXT SUMMER!

I know EXACTLY what you mean. I feel the same way! It's something that you look forward to and plan all year, and when it comes it doesn't last long!
