fourzoas"How the Grinch Stole Christmas" is on television right now.
The cable company's music channels have started playing Christmas music.
I won't tell you what's happening in the stores, because I don't really have to, do I?
I haven't even thought about a turkey yet, and the Grinch is on? Every year I feel less and less inclined to even celebrate the holiday (outside of actually spending time with family and friends) because it's shoved down my throat so early.

on 2008-11-16 06:02 am (UTC)UGH--your post reminded me that I wrote something the last time I was in the mall after seeing a Christmas shop, which was early September. I don't spend much time in the shops--Steve does most of our shopping--so I've been saved from much of that annoyance, but still...
Thanksgiving here is the start for me and Epiphany marks the end--of course, then it's Mardi Gras time, which is an entirely different sort of fun.
Hmm...I wonder if Ten/Martha might fancy a trip to New Orleans for the carnival season?
