Do You Like the Holidays?
The weather in San Francisco has been so sunny and warm lately that it's strange to think the holiday season is upon us. Now that Halloween has passed, we can expect to see decorations all around reminding us that we need to make plans for Thanksgiving and eventually start our holiday gift shopping.
Of course, the holidays aren't all about entertaining and shopping — ideally they're about spending quality time with family and friends, eating delicious dishes, and enjoying our other favorite festive traditions.
Dear Poll: Have You Broken Your Resolution Yet?
Resolutions are hard to keep, and it's not uncommon to fall off the wagon just days after vowing to break a bad habit or pledging a healthier lifestyle. Since we're just two days into the New Year, be honest, have you already broken your New Year's resolution?

What Should Be America's New Year's Resolution?
Every year individual Americans vow to lose weight, pay off debts, quit smoking, or volunteer. It may be time for the entire country to make a commitment to reform in 2009. The country sure has a lot of debt to pay off, government policy could do more to fight obesity and volunteer programs are crucial to keeping social programs running.
You Asked: Can I Exclude One of Our Friends?
Dear Sugar,
I organized a Secret Santa among a group of friends this year. On exchange day, everyone received something and it went off well, however, one participant received a gift that she clearly didn't like. She complained publicly about every aspect of the gift and her Secret Santa was quite upset by this.
Dear Poll: Do You Have Someone to Kiss at Midnight?
Since it's pretty unlikely that any of us will be able to kiss our celebrity crush this New Year's Eve, I've got to ask, whether you're coupled up or not, do you have someone to kiss on New Year's Eve?

Dear Poll: Do You Have Someone to Kiss at Midnight?
Yes
No
Not yet, but I'm hoping to find someone to smooch before midnight!
Do Tell: What's Your New Year's Resolution This Year?
Not many of you made New Year's Resolutions in 2007, but with so much change in 2008, you might have a new outlook on the concept this time around. So if you're looking to make a change of your own, do tell, what are you pledging for 2009?

Three! Two! One! and One More! 2008 Will Last an Extra Second
Ready to say adios to 2008? You are going to have to wait one whole second longer this New Year's Eve. The world's official timekeepers (who knew we had them?!) have added what they call a leap second to the last day of the year to help sync clocks to the earth's slowing spin on its axis.
Which Public Figures Would You Invite to Your New Year's Eve Party?
While a fancy night on the town filled with dancing and drinks sure is a popular way to ring in the New Year, you can't go wrong with a more intimate dinner party gathering on New Year's Eve. When planning my guest list, I started to wonder: If I could invite anyone in the world who would it be?
I came up with Nicolas Sarkozy, Carla Bruni, and Sarah and Todd Palin.
What Celebrity Would You Want to Kiss at Midnight?
The holiday season usually goes hand-in-hand with big blockbuster movies, and this year, there's no shortage of eye candy on the silver screen! Since New Year's Eve is just one day away, I thought it'd be fun to play a little game of fantasy. If you could pick one of these leading men to kiss when the clock strikes midnight tomorrow night, which actor would you want to smooch as you ring in the New Year?
