When one cannot fall asleep due to the sheer excitement of what is to come the next day. A common case of children not being able to fall asleep on Christmas Eve for the excitement of seeing what toys they will unwrap the next morning.
I was suffered from Christmas Eve Syndrome last night because I was too excited to see my girl the next day.

n. Oxymoronicly named period alluding to the daylight hours prior to Christmas Eve. Quite an acceptable coinage despite the objections of some opinionated pedants. An alternate etymology comes from the traditions of the Armenian Orthodox church which speak of the Bethlehem innkeeper's wife, Evangelina, who convinced her husband to allow Mary to give birth in their stable. A feast day in her honour was declared on the day preceding Christmas. Christmas Eve Day, a time for quiet contemplation and fasting, is still celebrated in Asia Minor and much of Central Alberta.

What are you planning for Christmas Eve Day?
I thought I'd stock up on diet coke and pizza for tomorrow.
Well watch out for the language police!

The day before Christmas Eve. All "Eve" holidays are better than the actual holiday because the day does not have to live up to the expectation of the real holiday. People are also usually off work on "eve's" so it is like everyones Friday night!!!

The stores and malls are open real late tonight because today is Pre Christmas Eve and last minute holiday shopping is a hectic crazy mess. If you don't need to go out tonight then STAY HOME. Merry Christmas.
