I’m going to be 100% honest here.  It makes me crabby that we hop straight from Halloween to Christmas.  It’s like November 1st we fix our eyes on all things red and green and forget to relish in the last part of fall.  I spent the better part of last night shopping for a lamp, and the more and more stores I visited, the more frustrated I got for the poor ol’ turkey.  I’m not forgetting about you, Thanksgiving.  You’ve always been my favorite.  You’re like Christmas, only without the pressure and greed.  I will not contribute to your being America’s red-headed stepchild holiday.  No.  I won’t.  It just ain’t right.

    So why are you asking me to find you Christmas music when Thanksgiving still ain’t here? Hypocrite.
