We are in that weird time between two holidays that are too close to go back to school, but some people have to pretend to work and others don't, and some are dealing with Christmas fallout with guests still hanging around. We all try to act like it's a normal week even though it's not, and until I heard this song, I didn't realize how universal that feeling is.
Is this a weekday or a weekend? Did my Christmas company leave yesterday or the day before? How old are these leftovers? Should I start taking down the decorations? I missed several days of my regular daily activities- will I ever catch up? Is life ever going to be normal again? Brittlestar wrote a little song to put into words how discombobulated we all are, whether we are off work or not. (via Nag on the Lake)

I read earlier today that some people are starting to refer to this period as 'Twixmas', and it specifically refers to the period betwixt Boxing Day (Dec. 26th) and New Years' Eve (Dec. 31st). The specific inclusion of and reference to 'Boxing Day' makes me think this has a distinct British origin.
