Well, let's talk for a minute about the hastiness with which the retail industry has jumped into the Holiday season this year. Here's what I drove by today:
So, I took this picture from my car, but do you see those white things on display in front of the Cub Foods store? Snowmen. LOADS of snowmen. On November 3. This is not okay people. Let's squeeze out a few more days of Fall and be thankful and eat turkey and stuffing. Then, after that, say about 25 days from now, it's okay to put out the snowmen.
To add to the insanity of the early Holiday sightings, I was looking for some music OnDemand today. I really wanted to jam out to the new Taylor Swift song! But, I found that there was a newly added channel called Holiday Hits. There are NINE Yule Log channels within the Holiday Hits. I turned one on and sure enough, Jingle Bells in full swing on those channels. I just think we should hold off a bit!!
P.S. About 30 minutes after I tried out that Yule Log Holiday Hits channel, it started snowing in my backyard. This was not Disney Magic. This was real life. I'm not ready for winter yet.
