01/03 Christmas in October?!
I was picking up some last minute Halloween candy and whatnot for a party the week before Halloween at the local Wal-Mart. I was floored to see Christmas stuff being set out already. I mean, I liked Christmas holiday decor and all that, but November isn’t even here. There was a time that you didn’t see anything Christmas related until a week before Thanksgiving, and now the entire last quarter of the year has been turned into this glut of consumerism and waste. Or maybe I’m just getting old and griping about “good old’ days” that never existed except in my imagination. Who knows?
