First of all, leg hair is totally irrelevant when covered with clothing. In some parts of the world, it’s irrelevant even if it shows. I go ‘european’ almost all winter! And when I get PJs, I try to get cute ones, so I can wear them socially as well.

At the risk of offending people, I’m going to say that lack of alcohol in a place like Texas (if it’s been correctly described to this foreigner) is a bit of a paradox. Like you said, it’s a depressing place, which goes hand in hand with drinking. Also, if I got my stereotypes right, men in Texas make a hobby out of getting wasted and beating up the cousin they married. Women, as far as I know, like their drink too, except they get knocked up by their cousins instead of beating them. Texas should be overflowing with booze!

Other than that, a merry Christmas to you (I do celebrate it). May it be as joyous as mine is going so far :)
