I love Christmas. It's easily my favorite time of the year. It's the snow, the music, the overall feeling of it that makes it the best. Christmas is awesome.
AFTER THANKSGIVING.
How could he say such a thing? It only comes once a year, so shouldn't we celebrate it early? Nay, says I. If you celebrate it too early, it can ruin the holiday. Let me explain:
The new Dragonforce album is coming out. Holy cow, Mark's freaking out! New album, baby! And to make it better, they've released a promo song from the CD a month early. We find Mark listening to it nonstop, and after two weeks, the song is getting old. By the time the new album comes out, Mark can't stand to hear the sound of Dragonforce without wanting to punch someone.
I'm not saying that I hate Christmas music by the time December 25th rolls around, but that if you jump the gun on Christmas, it can make the actual season seem less... special.
I'm not telling you how to celebrate the season (that's what Martha Stewart's for). But you might as well give it a try? Since when have I given you a reason to... you know what, I'd best not finish that.
So no
Until after
Please. It's for the kids.

Check out my blog after Thanksgiving--I will be changing my playlist to all Christmas songs!! I agree that the best time to start celebrating is the day after Thanksgiving--the stores think it is the day after Halloween!

Oh, don't get me wrong; once Nov. 28th hits, I'll the jolliest guy out there. Christmas songs, backgrounds... it's gonna be off the hook.
I'm already SO excited that I now have your blog. I always loved Fergy's useless facts... if that was even what it was called.. we had some good times in Mr. Spencer's class. And Europe.
